Privacy Policy

Who we are

Our website address is: https://cnwa.org.uk.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site 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.

After approval of your comment, your profile picture may be 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.

We use a number of free sources for our images including Pixabay and Wikimedia Commons. We use these in good faith but if we are advised that our use of an image has inadvertently infringed copyright we will remove the image and try to contact the copyright owner.

Cookies

Our website uses two types of cookies . First, there are session cookies. These cookies are used to log in and are set for all logged-in users on a WordPress website. Then, there are comment cookies. These cookies are set when users leave a comment on our site. Their purpose is to store the user’s name, email address, and URL information so that they don’t have to re-enter it the next time they comment on your website. Apart from third-party plugins and tools may also set cookies for our website.

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.

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.

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.
