Privacy Policy
Last updated: [DATE]
Historia Info (“we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect when you visit historiainfo.com (or your domain), why we collect it, and what choices you have.
Who We Are
Our website address is: http://historiainfo.com.
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help with 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, and to display your profile picture in the context of your comment. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available at https://automattic.com/privacy/.
If you check “Save my name, email, and website in this browser,” this information is stored in a cookie for your convenience so you don’t have to re-enter it on your next visit. This cookie lasts one year.
Newsletter Signup
If you subscribe to our newsletter, we collect your email address. This creates a subscriber account on this site so we can manage your subscription; we do not require or collect a password from you for this. We use your email solely to send the newsletter and will not sell or share it with third parties.
Contact Form
If you use our contact form, we collect your name, email address, subject, and message, which are sent directly to us so we can respond to your inquiry. We do not add you to any mailing list from this form alone.
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 visit our login page, we set a temporary cookie to determine whether your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
When you log in, we also set up cookies to save your login information and screen display choices. Login cookies last two days, and screen options cookies last a year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login persists for two weeks. If you log out, your login cookies are removed.
If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie is 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
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, or other articles). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if you had visited that other website directly.
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 it if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
Google reCAPTCHA
If enabled, our comment and contact forms may use Google reCAPTCHA to prevent spam and abuse. This service may collect hardware and software information, such as device and application data, and send it to Google to assess whether you are a bot. This is governed by the Google Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.
Who We Share Your Data With
If you request a password reset, your IP address is included in the reset email.
How Long We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely, so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users who 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 their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
Newsletter subscriber accounts are retained until you unsubscribe or request deletion. Contact form messages are retained only as long as needed to address your inquiry.
What Rights You Have Over Your Data
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request 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 data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes. To make such a request, contact us at [YOUR CONTACT EMAIL] or via our Contact page.
Where Your Data Is Sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam-detection service. If reCAPTCHA is enabled, form submissions may also be checked through Google’s reCAPTCHA service.
