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. 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 have an account and you log in to this site, 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.

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.
Mailing list
Any information you provide will never be sold or shared with
anyone. You will never be spammed. There will be an “unsubscribe” button
at the end of all the collective emails sent out and clicking on it
will remove your email from the Writing Raven mailing list.
How You Can Correct or Remove Information
We provide this privacy policy as a statement to you of our
commitment to protect your personal information. If you have submitted
personal information through our website and would like that information
deleted from our records or would like to update or correct that
information, please unsubscribe via the link at the bottom of any email
correspondence from us.

If there is a material change in our privacy practices, we will

a link to the new privacy policy. We encourage you to periodically
review this policy so that you will know what information we collect and
how we use it.
