Our website address is https://socialseamlessly.com.
Privacy information is controlled by Emily Yuncker who can be reached at emily@socialseamlessly.com.
WhAT PERSONAL DATA WE COLLECT AND WHY
In Short: We collect personal information that you provide to us. Some information — such as your
Internet Protocol (IP) address and/or browser and device characteristics — is collected automatically
when you visit our website.
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.
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. YouTube, Pinterest, WordPress.org, Ads 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 into that website.
TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES
We may use cookies and similar tracking technologies (like web beacons and pixels) to access or store
information. Specific information about how we use such technologies and how you can refuse certain
cookies is set out in our Cookie Notice.
Who we share your data with
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
The data collected may be shared with service providers and others who help with our business
operations and assist in the delivery of our products and services including, but not limited to:
application development, site hosting, maintenance, data analysis, infrastructure provision, IT services, customer service,
email delivery services, payment processing, marketing, analytics, and enforcement of our Terms of Service Agreement and other agreements;
Other users of the site to identify you to anyone to whom you send messages or make comments
through the Services; Persons or entities with whom you consent to have your Personal Data shared; Third parties in order to prevent damage to our property (tangible and intangible), for safety reasons, or to collect amounts owed to us; Merchants and payment processors; and Third parties as we believe necessary or appropriate, in any manner permitted under applicable
law, including laws outside your country of residence.
We do this to:
- comply with legal process;
- respond to requests from public and government authorities, including public and government
authorities outside your country of residence; - enforce our Terms of Service Agreement and other agreements;
- protect our operations;
- protect our rights, privacy, safety or property, and/or that of our affiliates, you, or others;
- and allow us to pursue available remedies or limit the damages that we may sustain.
We will never sell, rent, or lease your Personal Data to a third party.
How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained for one year. 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.
Analytics data is retained indefinitely. Contact forms are held for one year.
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 your data is sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service. Third parties have
access to your data as noted within this agreement.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
We will retain your Personal Data for the period necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy
Policy unless a longer retention period is required or allowed by law.
