What personal data we collect and why we collect it
Blog
If you sign up to receive notification of our blog, we store your name and email address so we can send the notification. Your details are only used for this purpose. You can unsubscribe from the blog at any time by clicking on the unsubscribe link in the email notification or contacting us through the Got a Question page. If you unsubscribe, your details will be permanently removed from our database.
Registering for an Event
If you register to attend a live event such as “Keith’s Question Corner”, we will store your name and email address so we can follow up with you on the event and answer any questions you may have. Your details are only used for this purpose. You can ask at any time to have your details removed permanently from our database.
Comments and Got a Question
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.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
How long we retain your data
If you subscribe to the blog, your details are retained until you request removal.
If you leave a comment, or use Contact Us, 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.
If you register for and/or attend an event, your details are retained for ten years.
What rights you have over your data
If you 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.
