Who We Are
You’ve found yourself at https://chesarp.com, the digital haven where information meets innovation.
Comments
Your thoughts matter, and when you drop a comment, we collect the essentials: data from the comments form, your IP address, and the browser user agent string for spam detection. To add a dash of personalization, an anonymized string (hash) derived from your email may be sent to the Gravatar service. Check out the Gravatar service Privacy Policy here. Once your comment gets the green light, your profile picture graces the public eye in the context of your comment.
Media
Snap-happy? If you upload images, please nix any embedded location data (EXIF GPS). We’re all for sharing, but let’s keep it location-free.
Cookies
Leave a comment, and you might opt-in to cookie-saving fame. Your name, email address, and website can be stored in cookies, lasting for a year. If you swing by our login page, we’ll dish out a temporary cookie to sniff out your cookie acceptance. It’s nibble-sized and bites the dust when you close your browser.
Logging in? Expect more cookies, designed to remember your choices. Login cookies stick around for two days, and screen options cookies linger for a year. Opt for “Remember Me,” and your login reigns for a fortnight. Article editing? We throw in an extra cookie with no personal data, just the post ID, expiring after 1 day.
Embedded Content from Other Websites
Venture into our articles, and you might stumble upon embedded content – videos, images, and more. They play by the rules of the visited site, collecting data, using cookies, and perhaps some third-party tracking. Keep an eye on them if you have an account and are logged in.
Who We Share Your Data With
Request a password reset, and your IP address gets a cameo in the reset email.
How Long We Retain Your Data
Comments stick around indefinitely, and their metadata too. Why? So we can spot and greenlight follow-up comments without playing the moderation waiting game.
For registered users, we store your provided personal info in your user profile. Want to peek, tweak, or bid adieu to your info? Dive in anytime. Administrators can do the same and more.
What Rights You Have Over Your Data
Account holder or comment leaver, you’re in control. Request an exported file of your data or ask us to wipe the slate clean. Just remember, we might keep some data for administrative, legal, or security reasons.
Where Your Data Is Sent
Visitor comments take a detour through automated spam detection services. Because who likes spam?
