1. Who We Are Our website address is: uxtnews.com (hereinafter referred to as the “Site”). We are committed to protecting your privacy online. We place great importance on securing the data you provide to us.
2. What Personal Data We Collect and Why We Collect It
2.1. 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.
2.2. 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.
2.3. 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.
3. Cookie Policy
3.1. What Are Cookies? Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, or phone) when you visit a website. They allow the site to “remember” your actions and preferences over a period of time.
3.2. Which Cookies We Use:
- Language Preferences (Polylang): We use cookies to save your selected interface language so that you do not have to switch languages again on your next visit.
- Comments: If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.
- Login: If you have an account and you log in to this site, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
- Analytics: We may use third-party services (e.g., Google Analytics) to collect anonymous traffic statistics (number of users, popular articles).
3.3. Managing Cookies You can disable the saving of cookies in your browser settings. However, please note that some functions of the site (for example, language switching) may not work correctly.
4. Who We Share Your Data With If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email. In other cases, we do not share your data with third parties, except as required by law.
5. How Long We Retain Your Data If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize 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.
6. 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.
