Who We Are

Our website address is: https://crownvale.co.uk/

Comments

When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect the information entered in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent to help detect and prevent spam.

An anonymized string (hash) created from your email address may be shared with the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. You can review the Gravatar privacy policy here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture may be publicly visible alongside your comment.

Media

If you upload images to our website, you should avoid including embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors may be able to download and extract location information from images on the site.

Cookies

If you leave a comment, you may choose to save your name, email, and website in cookies for convenience, so you don’t have to re-enter your details in the future. These cookies remain for one year.

When you visit our login page, a temporary cookie will be set to check if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie does not contain personal data and is removed when you close your browser.

Upon logging in, we set cookies to save your login details and display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, while display option cookies last for one year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. Logging out will remove these cookies.

If you edit or publish content, a cookie will be stored in your browser indicating the post ID. This cookie does not include personal data and expires after one day.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content such as videos, images, or articles. Embedded content behaves in the same way as if you visited the external website directly.

These external sites may collect data about you, use cookies, implement additional tracking, and monitor your interaction with the content—especially if you are logged into those platforms.

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

Comments and their metadata are stored indefinitely. This helps us recognize and automatically approve follow-up comments instead of holding them for moderation.

For users who register on our website (if applicable), we store the personal information provided in their user profiles. Users can view, edit, or delete their personal data at any time (except usernames). Website administrators can also access and edit this information.

Your Data Rights

If you have an account or have left comments on our site, you can request an exported file of your personal data. You may also request that we delete any personal data we hold about you, except for 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.
