Privacy Policy
Who We Are
Our website, Little Zinga, is located at http://littlezinga.com.
Comments
When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect the information provided in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string. This helps us detect and prevent spam.
If you’re using the Gravatar service, an anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be sent to Gravatar to see if you have an account there. You can find the Gravatar service privacy policy here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture, if you have one, will be visible to the public alongside your comment.
Media
If you upload images to our website, please avoid including embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from the images.
Cookies
When you leave a comment on our site, you may opt-in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. These cookies are for your convenience, so you won’t have to re-enter your details when leaving another comment. These cookies 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 does not contain any personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
When you log in, we set up several cookies to save your login information and screen display preferences. 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. When you log out, the login cookies will be removed.
If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be stored in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after one day.
Embedded Content from Other Websites
Articles on Little Zinga may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles). Embedded content from other websites behaves as if you visited the other website directly. These external websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content, especially 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 for security purposes.
How Long We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment, both the comment and its associated metadata are retained indefinitely. This allows us to automatically recognize and approve any follow-up comments, avoiding the need for manual moderation.
For users who register on our website (if applicable), we store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except for changing their username). Website administrators also have access to view and edit that information.
Your Data Rights
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. This includes any data you’ve provided to us. You can also request that we delete any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are required to keep for administrative, legal, or security reasons.
Where Your Data Is Sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service to ensure the safety and integrity of our site.
