Collecting Information
If you merely browse through this site or download information, we collect certain non-personal information by automatic operation through our site’s Web servers such as the Internet protocol (IP) address of the computer you are using and the date and time you access our site. This information does not identify you, and we do not match it to any personal information you may provide to us. We use this information to monitor the usage of our site and to make our site as useful as possible to all of our visitors.
Cookies
If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.
If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.
Embedded content from other websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
Security
The security of the information you provide is very important to us. We use Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption to protect the information you transmit to us. You should know, however, that no transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be entirely secure. Also, we are not responsible for matters outside of our direct control. Once we receive your information, we store it on our internal computers that are not linked to the Internet and work to ensure its security on our systems.
Data Sharing
We use Google Ads to advertise on third party websites (including Google) to previous visitors to our site. It could mean that we advertise to previous visitors who haven’t completed a task on our site, for example using the contact form to make an inquiry. This could be in the form of an advertisement on the Google search results page or a Google Display Network website. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a visitor’s past visits to our website. Any data collected will be used in accordance with our privacy policy and Google’s privacy policy.
You can opt out of Google Ads advertising at any time by visiting the Google Ad Settings page.
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.
Where we send your data
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
