Who I Am
My blog address is https://www.nourish-and-flourish.com.
Comments
When visitors leave comments on my blog, I collect the data shown in the comments form and the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help with 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 at https://automattic.com/privacy. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
Media
If you upload images to my blog, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data {EXIF GPS} included. Visitors to my blog can download and extract any location data from images on my blog.
Cookies
If you leave a comment on my blog, you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so 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 my login page, I 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, I will set up several cookies to save your login information and screen display choices. Login cookies last 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.
If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after one day.
Embedded Content From Other Websites
Articles on my blog may include embedded content {images, videos, etc.}. Embedded content from other websites behaves in the 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 logged in to that website.
Who I Share Your Data With
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
How Long I Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so I can recognize and approve any follow-up comments instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users who register on my blog, I 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}. I can also see and edit that information.
What Rights You Have Over Your Data
If you have an account on my blog or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data I hold about you, including any data you have provided to me. You can also request that I erase any personal data I hold about you. This does not include any data I’m obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where Your Data Is Sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
