Privacy Policy

About Us

This policy applies to Clearcut Holdings and our website located at: https://clearcutholdings.com.

Comments

When visitors post comments on this site, we collect the data displayed in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string. This information is collected primarily to assist in spam detection and moderation.

An anonymized string generated from your email address (also known as a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to verify if you are using it. You can review the Gravatar service privacy policy here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. Upon approval of your comment, your profile picture will be visible to the public in the context of your contribution.

Media

If you upload images to the website, please ensure that you avoid uploading files with embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the website can download and extract location data from images hosted on the site.

Cookies

If you post a comment on our site, you may opt-in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. These cookies are designed for your convenience, eliminating the need to re-enter your details for future comments. These cookies remain valid 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 immediately when you close your browser.

Upon logging in, we configure several cookies to save your login credentials and screen display preferences. Login cookies are valid for two days, while screen option cookies last for one year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login session will persist for two weeks. Logging out of your account will remove the login cookies.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie contains no personal data; it strictly indicates the post ID of the article you just edited and expires after one day.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Content on this site may include embedded material (e.g., videos, images, articles). Embedded content from third-party websites behaves exactly as if the visitor had visited the other website directly.

These third-party websites may collect data about you, utilize cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracing your interaction if you have an account and are logged in to that specific website.

Data Sharing

In the event that you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email for security verification purposes.

Data Retention

If you leave a comment, the comment and its associated metadata are retained indefinitely. This allows us to automatically recognize and approve any follow-up comments rather than holding them in a moderation queue.

For users who register on our website (if applicable), we store the personal information provided in their user profile. All users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (with the exception of their username). Website administrators also have access to view and edit this information.

Your Rights Over Your Data

If you hold an account on this site or have left comments, you are entitled to request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You may also request the erasure of any personal data we hold about you. Please note that this right does not extend to any data we are obliged to retain for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Data Transmission

Visitor comments may be processed and verified through an automated spam detection service.

Changes to This Policy

We reserve the right to modify this privacy policy at any time. All changes will be posted on this page and are effective immediately upon posting. We encourage you to review this page periodically to stay informed about how we are protecting the personal information we collect.
