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 (hash) from your email address may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you’re using it. The Gravatar privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture becomes visible to the public.


Media

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


Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site, you may opt-in to save your name, email, and website in cookies for your convenience. These cookies will last for one year.

If you visit our login page, a temporary cookie will check if your browser accepts cookies — this cookie contains no personal data and is deleted when you close your browser.

When you log in, cookies will save your login info and screen display preferences:

  • Login cookies last for two days
  • Display option cookies last for one year
  • If you select “Remember Me,” login persists for two weeks
  • When you log out, all login cookies are removed

If you edit or publish an article, a cookie will be saved in your browser indicating the post ID of the article. This cookie contains no personal data and expires after 1 day.


Embedded Content from Other Websites

Blog posts on this site may include embedded content (e.g., YouTube videos, Instagram images, or linked articles). Embedded content from external websites behaves as if the visitor has accessed that site directly.

These third-party websites may:

  • Collect data about you
  • Use cookies
  • Embed third-party tracking
  • Monitor your interaction with embedded content

This includes tracking your interaction if you are logged into that third-party service.


Who We Share Your Data With

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

Otherwise, we do not share or sell your personal data.


How Long We Retain Your Data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are stored indefinitely. This allows us to recognize and automatically approve future comments rather than holding them in a moderation queue.

If you register for an account (if applicable), your personal information is stored in your user profile. You can edit or delete your information at any time (username cannot be changed). Administrators can also view and update this information.


What Rights You Have Over Your Data

If you’ve left comments or have an account on this site, you can request:

  • A copy of any personal data we store about you
  • That we erase your personal data

This does not include data we are required to retain for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

To make a request, email us at: preston@mondaytown.com


Where Your Data Is Sent

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service (e.g., Akismet).
