This notice applies to all information collected or submitted on Sick Lesson’s website, emails, and/or social media accounts. The types of personal information collected at these pages are:
- Name
- Email address
- IP (internet protocol) address
- User agent
- Cookie information
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see 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 is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
Media
If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.
How We Use Information
You can register with Sick Lesson’s website if you would like to receive our newsletter, which includes updates on our latest blog posts and podcasts, recommended articles from around the web, freebies, campaigns, sponsored posts, and/or any new products or services. You will not be signed up unless you fill out and submit the registration form yourself.
Personal information may also be used to customise and improve your browsing experience, such as adaptation to your mobile or desktop browser size.
Finally, Sick Lessons never uses or shares the personally identifiable information provided to us online in ways unrelated to the ones described above without also providing you an opportunity to opt out or otherwise prohibit such unrelated uses.
Embedded content from other websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
Our commitment to data security
To prevent unauthorised access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use of information, we have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online.
Our commitment to children’s privacy
Protecting the privacy of the very young is especially important. For that reason, we never collect or maintain information at our website from those we actually know are under 13, and no part of our website is structured to attract anyone under 13.
How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognise and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
What rights you have over your data
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
How to access or correct your information
You can access all your personally identifiable information that we collect online and maintain by emailing [email protected]. To protect your privacy and security, we will take reasonable steps to verify your identity before granting access or making corrections. We use this procedure to better safeguard your information. You can correct factual errors in your personally identifiable information by sending us a request that credibly shows error.
Where we send your data
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
Modifications to this Privacy Policy
We reserve the right to amend, alter, or otherwise change this Privacy Policy at our sole and absolute discretion. If we modify this Privacy Policy, we will notify all Users via email, and may specifically ask you to agree to the modified terms in order to continue using the Service. Otherwise, further use of the Service following any such change constitutes your agreement to follow and be bound by the modified Privacy Policy.
How to contact us
You can contact us at [email protected] if you have any other questions.
