Privacy Policy – Prioritizing Your Privacy

Who We Are

Welcome to Kyle Beyke’s website, where we prioritize your privacy and uphold the security of your personal information.

Comments

When you leave a comment on our site, we collect the data you provide in the comments form, along with your IP address and browser user agent string to enhance our spam detection measures. An anonymized string generated from your email address may also be shared with the Gravatar service to display your profile picture alongside your approved comment.

Media

Should you upload images to our website, we advise against including embedded location data (EXIF GPS) to safeguard your privacy. Visitors downloading and extracting images may otherwise access any location data attached to them.

Cookies

For your convenience, leaving a comment on our site may result in your name, email address, and website storage in cookies. These cookies, lasting one year, eliminate the need to re-enter your details for subsequent comments. Temporary cookies are also set on our login page to assess your browser’s cookie acceptance, while additional cookies save your login information, screen display choices, and article edits.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Our articles may include embedded content (videos, images, articles, etc.) that behaves similarly to if you were visiting the source website. Embedded content from external sites may collect data, use cookies, and employ third-party tracking, tracking your interaction, especially if you’re logged in with an account on that external site.

Who We Share Your Data With

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

Data Retention

Comments and their metadata are retained indefinitely to recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically. For registered users, personal information stored in user profiles can be viewed, edited, or deleted anytime. Website administrators also have access to and can edit this information.

Your Rights Over Your Data

If you have an account or have left comments on our site, you have the right to request an exported file of your data or ask for the erasure of such data. However, data essential for administrative, legal, or security purposes cannot be erased.

Data Transmission

Visitor comments undergo automated spam detection services to ensure the integrity of our platform. Rest assured, your privacy remains a top priority at Kyle Beyke’s website.
