When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection. An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.).

2. Why We Need Your Information and How We Use It

We rely on a number of legal basis to collect, use, and share your information, including:

– as needed to provide our services, such as when we use your information to fulfill your order, to settle disputes, or to provide customer support;
– when you have provided your affirmative consent, which you may revoke at any time, such as by signing up for our mailing list;
– if necessary to comply with a legal obligation or court order or in connection with a legal claim, such as retaining information about your purchases if required by tax law; and
– as necessary for the purpose of our legitimate interests, if those legitimate interests are not overridden by your rights or interests, such as providing and improving our services. We use your information to provide the services you requested and in our legitimate interest to improve our services.

3. Information Sharing and Disclosure

Information about our customers is important to our business. We share your personal information for very limited reasons and in limited circumstances, as follows:

– Service providers. We engage certain trusted third parties to perform functions and provide services, such as email marketing service providers. We will share your personal information with these third parties, but only to the extent necessary to perform these services.

– Business transfers. If we sell or merge our business, we may disclose your information as part of that transaction, only to the extent permitted by law.

– Compliance with laws. We may collect, use, retain, and share your information if we have a good faith belief that it is reasonably necessary to: (a) respond to legal process or to government requests; (b) enforce our agreements, terms and policies; (c) prevent, investigate, and address fraud and other illegal activity, security, or technical issues; or (d) protect the rights, property, and safety of my customers, or others.

4. Data Retention

We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to provide you with our services and as described in our Privacy Policy. However, we may also be required to retain this information to comply with our legal and regulatory obligations, to resolve disputes, and to enforce our agreements. We generally keep your data for the following time period: 4 years.

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, 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.

5. Transfers of Personal Information Outside the EU

We may store and process your information through third-party hosting services in the US and other jurisdictions. As a result, we may transfer your personal information to a jurisdiction with different data protection and government surveillance laws than your jurisdiction. If we deemed to transfer information about you outside of the EU, we rely on Privacy Shield as the legal basis for the transfer.

6. Your Rights

If you reside in certain territories, including the EU, you have a number of rights in relation to your personal information. While some of these rights apply generally, certain rights apply only in certain limited cases. We describe these rights below:

– Access. You may have the right to access and receive a copy of the personal information we hold about you by contacting us using the contact information below.

– Change, restrict, delete. You may also have rights to change, restrict our use of, or delete your personal information. Absent exceptional circumstances (like where we are required to store data for legal reasons) we will generally delete your personal information upon request.

– Object. You can object to (i) our processing of some of your information based on our legitimate interests and (ii) receiving marketing messages from us after providing your express consent to receive them. In such cases, we will delete your personal information unless we have compelling and legitimate grounds to continue using that information or if it is needed for legal reasons.

– Complain. If you reside in the EU and wish to raise a concern about our use of your information (and without prejudice to any other rights you may have), you have the right to do so with your local data protection authority.

7. How to Contact Me

8. Security

We take security very seriously. Where appropriate, the website is configured to transfer data using the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), one of the strongest security systems to protect your communications with us. You are automatically protected using SSL with 128-bit encryption. SSL works in the following ways:

– It prevents impersonation; you can tell that you are using a genuine SSL website by the padlock symbol on the bottom of the screen.

– It encrypts data. As soon as your computer has recognized our computer, they encrypt all information that is passed between them. Data encryption means that no one else can read or change your information as it travels over the Internet.

– It prevents scrambling. SSL uses a Message Authentication Code (MAC) to prevent anyone tampering with our website. Your computer will always check this code before it takes a message from us. This means that if anyone tries to interfere with a message, your computer would not recognize the code and would alert you.
