Who We Are
Welcome to ur privacy policy page. In which we will be referencing the privacy disclosures of our main pages. Our website address is: http://10.44.205.4/wp/adi/site-28jan19-1852 or go to our Front Page.
What Personal Data We Collect and Why
We believe in complete transparency when it comes to data privacy. Therefore, we want to ensure you fully understand the types of personal data we collect and why we collect it.
Comments
When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect not only the data entered in the comment form, but also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string. This information is vital as it helps us in detecting and preventing spam.
Additionally, an anonymized string, or hash, is generated from your email address and may be shared with the Gravatar service if you use it. For your convenience, you can find the Gravatar service’s privacy policy here. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture—if associated with Gravatar—will be visible publicly alongside your comment.
Media
If you upload any images to our website, it is essential to avoid uploading images that contain embedded location data (EXIF GPS). This is because visitors can download and extract location data from images that are posted on the site.
Contact Forms
Furthermore, we collect personal data submitted through contact forms. This allows us to respond efficiently to your inquiries. Rest assured, this data is handled with care and is not shared externally without your permission.
Cookies
If you leave a comment on our website, you have the option to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. This will make it easier for you to comment again without re-entering your details. These cookies last for a year.
For those who have accounts on our site, we also set up a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies when you log in. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
When you log in, several cookies are also set to store your login details and screen preferences. Login cookies remain active for two days, while screen option cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. However, if you log out of your account, the login cookies will be deleted.
Moreover, if you edit or publish an article, another cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie contains no personal data and expires after one day.
Embedded Content From Other Websites
It is also important to note that articles on our site may include embedded content such as videos, images, or articles. Embedded content from other websites behaves in the same way as if you were visiting the external website directly.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content, especially if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
Analytics
To improve our services and user experience, we may use analytics tools that gather data. However, this information is typically aggregated and does not personally identify you.
Data Sharing and Retention
Who We Share Your Data With
In some cases, we may need to share your data, but only when necessary to fulfill your request or if required by law. Your privacy remains our priority.
How Long We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata will be retained indefinitely. This is done so that we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically, rather than keeping them in a moderation queue.
In addition, for users who register on our site, we store the personal information they provide in their user profile. Every user has the ability to view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time, except for their username. Our website administrators also have the ability to view and edit that information.
Your Data Rights
If you have an account with us or have left comments, you can request an exported file containing the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided. Moreover, you can request that we erase your personal data. This does not include any data we are required to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where We Send Your Data
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service to ensure a safe and secure environment for all users.
Additional Information
How We Protect Your Data
To protect your data, we use industry-standard security measures that prevent unauthorized access, misuse, or disclosure of your personal information.
Data Breach Procedures
In the unlikely event of a data breach, we have protocols in place to respond swiftly and efficiently to minimize any potential harm.
Third Parties We Receive Data From
At times, we may receive data from third-party sources to enhance our services or improve the functionality of the website. Rest assured, any data we receive will be handled with the utmost care.
Automated Decision-Making
We do not engage in automated decision-making or profiling of user data without prior knowledge or consent. Should any processes be automated, they will not have significant effects on individual users without transparent disclosure.
Industry Regulatory Disclosures
We comply with all industry regulatory requirements to ensure that your data is managed and protected responsibly.
