Privacy Policy

Who We Are
Our site address is: https://ballrec.com.

Comments
When visitors leave comments, we collect the data shown in the comment form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help detect spam.

An anonymized string (also called a hash) generated from your email address may be provided to the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. The Gravatar service’s privacy policy is available here: https://ballrec.com/privacy/. After your comment is approved, your profile picture will be publicly visible next to your comment.

Media
If you upload images to this website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to this website can download and extract any location data from images on this site.

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

If you visit our login page, 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.

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

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie does not contain personal data and only records the ID of the article you just edited. This cookie 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 exactly as if the visitor has visited the other website directly.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content. This includes tracking your interaction if you have an account and are logged in to those websites.

Who We Share Your Information With
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.

How Long We Retain Your Information
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can automatically approve any follow-up comments instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For registered users on this site, we also store the personal information they provide in their user profiles. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Site administrators can also view and edit this information.

Your Rights Over Your Information
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request an export file of the personal data we hold about you, including all data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase your personal data. This does not include 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.
