What personal data we collect and why we collect it

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. (Images with location metadata would result in being able to determine where someone took that image). Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

Contact forms

Please see Privacy policy | Contact Form 7 for more information.

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.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after 1 day.

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.

For instance, Scratch ( Scratch – Imagine, Program, Share (mit.edu) ) projects are listed on this website.

Analytics

Who we share your data with

If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.

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.

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.

Where we send your data

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service (please see Akismet Spam Protection – WordPress plugin | WordPress.org ).

Your contact information

Any information provided through signing on to a contact form/feedback form will be given to the website owner and potentially visible for other users to see though I hope to add an option where this isn’t needed. Generally, contact information is needed if you wish to contact this website’s owner and have a discussion with them.

What data breach procedures we have in place

Currently figuring this out.

What third parties we receive data from

Currently figuring this out.

What automated decision making and/or profiling we do with user data

Not sure what automated controls go on behind the scenes, I’ll look into this later, and provide clarity.

User data in contact forms will be stored per individual user; any content you provide to this website will be associated with you (and you only). Additionally, using contact information from contact forms + feedback forms, if you provide the same email address, any comments from both sections would be linked to the same email address.

This website uses an anti-spam feature, which makes automated decisions, please see the section titled “Where we send your data”.

Industry regulatory disclosure requirements

I will add any disclaimers or required industry statements when I am done properly researching this. For now, this privacy policy serves as covering the privacy disclaimers of this website (and how data is handled).
