What personal data we collect and why we collect it

Contact forms

If you submit a contact form, we collect/keep all data submitted on the form. This allows us to get in touch if we do not receive the form to our email address.

We periodically will go through and delete these entries after it is determined they are no longer needed.

In rare instances, the entries will be kept indefinitely.

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 do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

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.

Analytics

We collect information related to people who visit the site – how long they stay on the site, what pages they visit and how quickly they leave.

Who we share your data with

No one, unless a tip is submitted to us instead of law enforcement. In most cases, we try to contact you first but we may submit that information to law enforcement on your behalf.

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.

We also have an internal analytics program installed to track referrals and popular articles.

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 we send your data

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