Who we share your data with

We may share the information a user submits via a contact form on our site with our partners. This information is shared in order to respond to the request or resolve the subject matter of your message.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where we send your data

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service. Information a user submits via a contact form on our site may be forwarded to our partners via a non-encrypted email and saved on a third-party server. The data is stored on secure servers and protected by a 256-bit SSL connection that encrypts the data.

We will take reasonable precautions to ensure confidentiality of your information, but there is a possibility that information you submit via a contact form on our website can be intercepted and read by unintended parties. 

Your contact information

We do not automatically log personal data nor do we link information automatically logged by other means with personal data about specific individuals. We collect Personal Data about you when you provide such Personal Data directly to us.

By submitting a contact form on our site, you may be sending us personal information (i.e., your name, address, e-mail address, etc.). We may store the information of the requester in order to respond to the requestor or otherwise resolve the subject matter of your message. Information on our site is collected only if a user agrees to share their contact information with us via a form on the site.

Additional information

How we protect your data

We do not share personal information you have provided to us without your consent, unless:

– doing so is appropriate to carry out your own request;
– we believe it’s needed to enforce our Terms of Service, or that is legally required;
– we believe it’s needed to detect, prevent or address fraud, security or technical issues;
– otherwise protect our property, legal rights, or that of others.

We seek to protect Personal Data using appropriate technical and organizational measures based on the type of Personal Data and applicable processing activity.

We do not collect information about our visitors from other sources, such as public records or bodies, or private organizations.

What automated decision making and/or profiling we do with user data
