What personal data we collect and why we collect it
While viewing this blog you may decide to provide us with the following personal information: your name, email address, and a website link. You would provide this information if you decided to leave a comment, subscribe to our email newsletter, or access free content.
Comments
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. Under no circumstances will this information ever be sold or shared by us or anyone operating on our behalf.
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 leave a comment on this website, you acknowledge that your comments will be made publicly available and that you are comfortable having any remarks made associated with the name as you provide. If you are not comfortable with that association or public access, do not leave comment – please email us directly. We reserve the right to delete any and all comments and/or links we find to be offensive or harmful. We are all about having a good discussion but we will not tolerate demeaning remarks toward any other individuals who may be commenting or reading here. We reserve the right to delete a link to your personal website promoting a service or product we do not personally endorse or use while leaving your comment in place.
Email list and Free Content or “Freebies”
We use a third-party service to maintain our email newsletter and by opting in to the email list you are personally submitting your name and email address to that service where we can access it. Please read the Mailchimp Privacy policy and terms of service. If you are not comfortable doing so, do not submit your personal information to this site, sign up for the newsletter, or request any of the free content upgrades (e.g., printables, ebooks, checklists, etc.).
Embedded Content
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. The most common example from this site is YouTube.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracing your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
Analytics
This site does make use of cookies to track information from you through third-party services, namely, Google Analytics and Jetpack. Please click on the links in the last sentence to read their privacy and cookie policy information to understand what they are tracking, how it is used, and how you can prevent or block them from tracking this information. Your information is retained by those companies, not me personally. I access some data through their websites, meaning I can see things like city you’re in, browser you used and IP address but not your name unless you leave a comment (see the comment policy above). If you would like to prevent or block this or any other site from accessing your information, you may do so by updating your browser settings and/or installing a browser plugin. A google search can help you learn how to do that.
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. If you sign up for our email list, your name and email address are retained indefinitely so we can continue to send you the emails you want. To remove your name and email from our email list, simply click the unsubscribe button.
What rights you have over your data
If you 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
All comments and information submitted may be scanned for spam using an automated spam detection service.
