What personal data we collect and why we collect it

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.

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.

Who we share your data with

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. 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.

Where we send your data

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

Comments

Dorks With Sporks welcomes and desires your comments.  Helpful suggestions and constructive criticism is always welcome.  That is how we learn from one another.  This site is much like our own  home. We do live here, A LOT.  We invest hours of time to make this a place where you will want to come visit.  Please do not say anything in a comment that you would not say right in my own home to my face.  We reserve the right to allow your comment or not on this website just as we would escort you right out of our home if you were being rude.  We reserve the right to not publish a comment, remove a comment luv link or remove a comment that is rude or objectionable.  We also blacklist a user who is rude.  

Blacklisting means that the commenter will no longer be able to leave comments or visit the website.  When trying to visit the website, you will simply see an error code or not be able to find what you are looking for.  Sorry, that’s how it is when you don’t play nice.
