Our website address is: https://www.landcrafters.com.

2. 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. Additionally, we collect the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to assist with spam detection.

An anonymized string generated from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to determine 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 (if available) will be visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media

If you upload images to the website, we recommend avoiding uploading images that contain embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images uploaded to the website.

Contact Forms

When you use our contact forms, we collect the personal data you provide, such as your name, email address, phone number, and message. This information is used to respond to your inquiries and provide customer support.

Cookies

We use cookies to enhance your experience on our website. Cookies are small text files stored in your browser. If you leave a comment on our Site, you may opt-in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. These cookies are stored for your convenience so that you do not have to re-enter your details the next time you leave a comment. These cookies will last for one year.

If you visit our login page, we 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.

Upon logging in, we set several cookies to save your login information and screen display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, while screen preferences cookies last for one year. If you choose the “Remember Me” option, your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out, the login cookies will be deleted.

When you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie is saved in your browser. This cookie contains no personal data and merely indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after one day.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on our Site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the same way as if you visited the other website directly. These external websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content. If you have an account with the external site and are logged in, that site may track your interaction with the embedded content.

Analytics

We use third-party analytics services, such as Google Analytics, to analyze the traffic on our Site. These services collect information about your use of the Site, including your IP address, the pages you visit, the time spent on those pages, and the links you click. This data helps us improve the functionality and content of our Site.

3. Who We Share Your Data With

We do not sell or rent your personal data to third parties. However, we may share your personal data with trusted third-party service providers who assist us in operating our Site and providing services to you, such as web hosting services, analytics providers, and payment processors. These third parties are contractually obligated to handle your data in accordance with our privacy policy and applicable data protection laws.

In addition, visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.

4. How Long We Retain Your Data

Comments: If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This allows us to automatically recognize and approve follow-up comments rather than holding them in a moderation queue.
User Accounts: For registered users (if any), we store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also access and edit this information.

5. What Rights You Have Over Your Data

If you have an account on our 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 may also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. Please note that this does not include data we are required to retain for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
