About Us
Our website is located at https://cowparadenc.com. We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about how your data is used.
User Comments
When visitors leave comments, we collect the data entered in the comment form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser information to help prevent spam.
A hashed version of your email address may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you’re using it. Their privacy policy can be found at https://automattic.com/privacy. Once your comment is approved, your profile image becomes visible to the public alongside your comment.
Media Uploads
If you upload images, we recommend removing any embedded location data (such as EXIF GPS). Visitors can download and extract location data from uploaded images if it’s present.
Cookies
When you leave a comment, you may choose to save your name, email, and website in cookies. This makes it easier for you to comment again in the future. These cookies remain active for one year.
Visiting our login page triggers a temporary cookie to check your browser’s cookie support. It contains no personal data and is removed when you close your browser.
When you log in, cookies are created to store your login status and display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, or two weeks if you select “Remember Me.” Display preference cookies remain for one year. Logging out removes the login cookies.
If you edit or publish an article, a cookie is saved that contains the ID of the post you edited. It does not include personal data and expires in one day.
Embedded Content
Posts on this website may include content embedded from other sites (such as videos, images, or articles). Interacting with this content is the same as visiting the other site directly.
These sites may collect data about you, use cookies, and track your interaction with the embedded content, especially if you’re logged into those platforms.
Data Sharing
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email for verification and security.
Data Retention
Comments and their metadata are stored indefinitely to streamline future approvals.
For registered users (if any), we store the personal information they provide in their profiles. Users can view, edit, or delete their data at any time, except for their username. Site administrators can also manage that data.
Your Data Rights
If you have an account or have posted comments, you can request an export of your personal data or request that it be deleted. This does not include any data we are required to retain for legal, administrative, or security reasons.
Spam Detection
Visitor comments may be processed through automated systems to detect and block spam.
