Our commitment to you

By visiting alviller.com, you’re consenting to our privacy policy. We’re committed to protecting your privacy online. This Privacy Policy describes the information we collect through this website (alviller.com), and how we collect and use such information.

 

Who we are

Our website address is: https://alviller.com. This is a secure independent blog website, owned and operated by Al Viller, and used for the purpose of sharing positive thoughts and ideas about how communication can empower and inspire others.

 

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site, there may be some delay before it appears. While we embrace transparency, we review comments to ensure they don’t contain offensive language or are submitted by bots. 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.

 

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 that you don’t have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

 

If you visit our login page, we’ll 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’ll also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. If 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 includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after 1 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 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.

 

Affiliate links

Some of our posts at alviller.com may contain affiliate links. If you click on an affiliate link and later make a purchase, we may receive a small commission.  Clicking on an affiliate link which earns a commission DOES NOT result in additional charges to you or cost you anything extra. Mentions of associated products / services / businesses within the content of the blog may or may not be noted as an affiliate in every reference.  Money earned via affiliate links helps pay the fees to keep this site up and running. Thank you so much for shopping through our links to show your support for the brands that we love and the products that we share!

 

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 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 your data is sent

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