Personal data we collect and why
Personal data is information about you that identifies you as an individual; for example, your name, address, e-mail address, or telephone number. Personal data is not just created by your interactions with this site. Personal data is also generated from technical processes such as contact forms, comments, cookies, analytics, and third party embeds.
We are the sole owners of the information collected on this site. We only have access to/collect information that you voluntarily give us via email or other direct contact from you. We will not sell or rent this information to anyone.
We will use your information to respond to you, regarding the reason you contacted us. We will not share your information with any third party outside of our organization, other than as necessary to fulfill your request, e.g. to ship an order.
Unless you ask us not to, we may contact you via email in the future to tell you about specials, new products or services, or changes to this privacy policy.
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.
Media
If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.
Contact forms
We will only ever collect personal information that you voluntarily provide to us. Personal Information is information about you that identifies you as an individual, for example, your name, address, e-mail address, or telephone number.
We do not store your data. We will not sell your data. If you have requested to be on our mailing list, that is the only thing we use your data for. Period.
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.
For more information on additional cookies that may be used on our site, see our Cookie Policy here.
Embedded content from other sites
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. We do not typically use content from other sites.
Analytics
By default WordPress does not collect any analytics data. However, many web hosting accounts collect some anonymous analytics data. Kathryn Kaiser uses Google Analytics to track our data use. This is their privacy policy.
Who we share your data with
We will not share your data with anyone. Period. We cannot physically store your data. We do not have the resources nor the interest to do so.
How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely, unless you tell us otherwise. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For registered users, 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. Anytime you want this removed, just ask.
What rights you have over your data
If you have an account on this site, or 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.
You may opt out of any future contacts from us at any time. You can do the following at any time by contacting us via the email address or phone number given on our website:
- See what data we have about you, if any.
- Change/correct any data we have about you.
