Who We Are
Our website address is: https://ordinaryparent.com.
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help with spam detection.
An anonymized string (also called a hash) created from your email address may be shared with the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. You can find the Gravatar service’s privacy policy here: https://automattic.com/privacy. After your comment is approved, your profile picture will be visible to the public in the context of your comment.
Media
If you upload images to the website, please avoid including embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the website may download and extract location data from images posted on the site.
Cookies
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 you don’t have to re-enter your details when leaving another comment. These cookies will last for one year.
If you visit our login page, a temporary cookie will be set to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
When you log in, we set up several cookies to store your login information and screen display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, and screen preference cookies last for one year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. When you log out, login cookies will be removed.
If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be stored in your browser. This cookie contains no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you edited. It expires after one day.
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 same way as if you visited those websites directly.
These third-party websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with their embedded content — including tracking your interactions if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
Who We Share Your Data With
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
How Long We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are stored indefinitely. This allows us to recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For registered users (if any), we store the personal information provided in their user profiles. All users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except their username). Website administrators can also view and modify 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 have provided. You can also request the deletion of your personal data. This does not include any data 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.
