Privacy Policy

An introduction

Welcome to http://usated.com. Here is some Privacy Policy you may refer to in the context of website use.

Comments

We track the data submitted in the comments box, the visitor’s IP address, and the user agent string from their device when they post comments on our website to help prevent spamming. The Gravatar service may obtain an encrypted string (also referred to as a hash) derived from your email id in to see if you are accessing it. You can check the Gravatar service’s privacy policy at any time on their website. After your comment has been validated, the whole audience can see your profile photo beside it.

Media

Consider uploading photos without embedded location information (EXIF GPS) if you intend to upload them to the site you visit. Any location data from photos on the website could be accessed and retrieved by site visitors.

Cookies (personal data that we collect)

You might choose if you wish to have your name, email address, and website saved in cookies while you post a comment on our Usated. These are offered for your convenience so that you won’t have to re-enter your data each time you post a comment. The lifespan of these cookies is one year. We would also generate a number of cookies with your screen display preferences. Screen option data last a year, whereas registration cookies are only valid for a couple of days as per our Privacy Policy.

Embedded content

This site’s articles may comprise embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves exactly like the visitor who visited the other website. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, integrate additional third-party monitoring, and record your engagement with embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Data Retention

When you post a comment its metadata are stored permanently. This enables us to instantly acknowledge and authorize any follow-up comments instead of holding them on a moderation waiting list. All users are entitled to view, edit, or delete their private details at any time. Admins of the website can also view and modify that information.

Data Rights

You can request an electronic version of the personal information we retain about you, including any data you have presented to us if you have left comments on Usated.com. You can also request us to remove any personal info we have on file for you. This exempts any data that we are obligated to keep for administrative, legal, or security concerns.
