EMAIL POLICY
If you have subscribed to our newsletter or if you have purchased on our website, there is a good chance you will receive emails from us. We will only send you emails which you have signed up to receive, or which pertain to the services we provided to you. To send you emails, we use the name and email address you provide us. Our site also logs the IP address you used when you signed up for the service to prevent abuse of the system. This website can send emails through the MailPoet sending service. This service allows us to track opens and clicks on our emails. We use this information to improve the content of our newsletters. No identifiable information is otherwise tracked outside this website except for the email address.
PERSONAL DATA
Comments
When visitors leave comments or use the contact forms on the site we collect the data shown in the 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.
Contests
For contests hosted on our website, we use a third party widget by Rafflecopter. The Rafflecopter privacy policy is available here: https://www.rafflecopter.com/privacy-policy. Information gathered from contests run is used as per the contest rules for each individual contest.
Store Front
When placing an order through our store front or ordering a subscription, we keep the following information on file: customer name, mailing address, billing address, email address, Paypal email address if paying by Paypal, order details and phone number. Additional information, such as credit card information, are not kept on file once the order has been processed.
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 have an account and you log in to this site, 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 tracing your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
Analytics
We use Google Analytics to provide information on visitor behavior. This information does not personally or directly identify you and may include the content you view, the time spent on the site and where you came from. This information is used to create a better experience for our readers. We also use Google Adsense to serve advertisements suited to the content of our website and your past viewing history. For information on how this data is used and collected, you can find the Google privacy policy at http://www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/.
SHARING DATA
Most data collected is not shared outside of our office environment. Data collected by contest entrants may be shared with the contest sponsors as per the individual contest rules.
DATA RETENTION
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.
If you make a purchase, subscribe to the magazine or enter a contest on our website, the information collected is retained indefinitely.
RIGHTS TO DATA
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.
