Who We Are

Our website address is https://anchoragesalfordquays.com. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your data when you interact with our website.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the information provided in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent. This helps us detect and prevent spam.

An anonymised hash of your email address may be shared with the Gravatar service to check if you use it. You can view Gravatar’s Privacy Policy here: https://automattic.com/privacy/.
Once your comment is approved, your profile image (if applicable) will be visible publicly alongside your comment.

Media

If you upload images to the website, avoid including embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the site may be able to download and extract this information from uploaded images.

Cookies

If you leave a comment, you may choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. These exist for your convenience so you don’t need to re-enter your details next time. These cookies last for one year.

If you visit our login page, we set a temporary cookie to determine whether your browser accepts cookies. It contains no personal data and is removed when you close your browser.

When you log in, several cookies are set to store your login details and screen display preferences.

• Login cookies last for two days.

• Screen options cookies last for one year.

• If you select “Remember Me”, your login persists for two weeks.
  Logging out removes login cookies.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie is stored in your browser. This contains the post ID of the article you edited and expires after one day.

Embedded Content From Other Websites

Articles or pages on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, or articles). Embedded content behaves exactly as if you visited the source website directly.

These external sites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content, especially if you’re logged in to their platform.

Who We Share Your Data With

If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.

How Long We Retain Your Data

If you leave a comment, both the comment and its metadata are stored indefinitely. This allows us to automatically recognise and approve follow-up comments rather than holding them for moderation.

For registered users (if applicable), we store the personal information provided in their user profile. All users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (excluding usernames). Website administrators can also view and update this information.

Your Rights Over Your Data

If you have an account on this site or have left comments, you can request an exported file containing the personal data we hold about you, including any data you’ve provided.

You may also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This excludes data we must keep for legal, administrative, or security reasons.

Where Your Data Is Sent

Visitor comments may be screened using an automated spam detection service.
