Who We Are

Our website address is: https://localcouncilofwomen.org.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data entered in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string. This helps us detect spam.

We may provide an anonymized string, created from your email address (also called a hash), to the Gravatar service to check if you’re using it. You can view the Gravatar service’s privacy policy here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once we approve your comment, your profile picture becomes visible to the public alongside it.

Media

If you upload images to the website, avoid including embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors can download and extract this information from the images.

Cookies

When you leave a comment, you may choose to save your name, email, and website in cookies. These are for your convenience, so you won’t have to re-enter your details when leaving another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

When you visit our login page, we set a temporary cookie to check if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data, and we discard it when you close your browser.

Once you log in, we set up several cookies to save your login information and screen display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, while screen option cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login persists for two weeks. Logging out removes the login cookies.

If you edit or publish an article, we save an additional cookie in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply records the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after one day.

Embedded Content From Other Websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content such as videos, images, or articles. Embedded content behaves the same way as if you visited the source website directly. These external websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed third-party tracking, and monitor how you interact with their embedded content, especially if you’re logged into their site.

Who We Share Your Data With

If you request a password reset, we include your IP address in the reset email.

How Long We Retain Your Data

If you leave a comment, we store the comment and its metadata indefinitely. This allows us to recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users who register on our website (if any), we store the personal information provided in their user profile. All users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except for their username). Website administrators can also see and edit this information.

Your Rights Over Your Data

If you have an account on this site or have left comments, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you’ve provided. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you, except for the data we must keep for administrative, legal, or security reasons.

Where We Send Your Data

We may check visitor comments through an automated spam detection service.
