Privacy Policy

Who we are

Our website address is: https://eastinkgallery.com.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, together with the visitor’s IP address and browser user-agent string to help with spam detection.

An anonymised string created from your email address (also known as a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to check whether you use it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available at https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once your comment has been approved, your profile picture may be visible publicly alongside your comment.

Media

If you upload images to the website, please avoid uploading images containing embedded location data, such as EXIF GPS data. Visitors may be able to download and extract location data from images displayed on the website.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site, you may choose to save your name, email address and website in cookies. This is for your convenience, so that you do not need to enter these details again when leaving another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

If you visit our login page, we may set a temporary cookie to determine whether your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in, we may set cookies to save your login information and screen-display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, while screen-options cookies last for one year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out, the login cookies will be removed.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie may be saved in your browser. This cookie contains no personal data and simply records the post ID of the article you edited. It expires after one day.

Embedded content from other websites

Pages on this site may include embedded content, such as videos, images or articles. Embedded content from other websites behaves in the same way as if you had visited the relevant third-party website directly.

These third-party websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional tracking technologies and monitor your interaction with their embedded content, including where you have an account with, and are logged in to, that third-party website.

Who we share your data with

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

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata may be retained indefinitely. This helps us recognise and approve follow-up comments automatically rather than holding them in a moderation queue.

For users who register an account on our website, we store the personal information they provide in their user profile. Users can view, edit or delete their personal information at any time, except that usernames cannot normally be changed. Website administrators may also access and edit this information where necessary to manage the website and customer accounts.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site or have left comments, you may request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including data you have provided to us. You may also request that we erase personal data we hold about you, subject to any information that we are required to retain for administrative, legal or security purposes.

Where your data is sent

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam-detection service.
