What personal data we collect and why we collect it
Contact form
By filling in the contact form, the user authorizes this application to use these details to reply to requests for information, services, and any other kind of request as indicated by the form’s header. Personal data collected: name and email address.
Comments
When visitors leave comments 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.
Cookies
Our website employs the use of third party services. These services may place anonymous cookies on the visitor’s browser and may send their own cookies to the visitor’s cookie file. Some of these service providers include, but are not limited to, website hosting, authentication, social networks, website security, analytics, and plugins (software containing a group of functions that can be added to a WordPress website).
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.
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.
Who we share your data with
We share data with third party companies for the purposes of operating our website, providing our services, ensuring the security of our website and services, maintaining back-ups of our databases and communicating with you.
Interaction with external social networks and platforms
This website allows interaction with social networks. The interaction and information obtained through this application is always subject to each social network’s privacy settings. This type of service might still collect traffic data for the pages where the service is installed, even when visitors do not use it.
Links to other websites
We may include links to other websites. If you submit personal information to any of those sites whose privacy policies may differ from ours, your information is governed by their privacy policy. It is our suggestion that you carefully read the privacy statement of any website you visit.
PayPal
If you use PayPal to finalize and pay for a product on our site, you will provide your credit card number directly to PayPal. PayPal’s privacy policy will apply to the information you provide on the PayPal website.
How long we retain your data
Contact form entries relating to services are kept for as long as needed to fulfill that purpose.
Customer purchase records are kept for as long as legally necessary for tax purposes.
Personal Data collected for purposes related to the performance of a contract between the owner and the user will be retained until such contract has been fully performed.
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.
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 obligated to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where we send your data
Contact form data is kept on the owner’s computer.
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
