What personal data we collect and why we collect it

Comments

When visitors voluntarily 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.

You are not required to enter your email address. By submitting a comment to the website this is your consent for it to be published – although it is first held to be reviewed by A Life Of Lovely and as such you would be able to add to the comment for it to be read but not published. All comments are held for review to prevent SPAM.

Any email entered voluntarily will only be used to respond to a comment if necessary and is not used for any newsletters or provided for any third party.

Any comments can be removed from the site if requested by emailing us at [email protected]. Please title your email Remove Comment so that we can quickly implement your request.

Access – You may access the personal information we have about you by submitting a request to [email protected].
Amend – You may contact us at lu@alifeoflovely.com to amend or update your personal information.
Forget – In certain situations, you may request that we erase or forget your personal data. To do so, please submit a request to [email protected].
Please note that we may need to retain certain information for recordkeeping purposes or to complete transactions, or when required by law.

The Website does not knowingly collect any personally identifiable information from children under the age of 16.

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.

You can switch off cookies by changing the settings in your internet browser. Already set cookies may be deleted at any time via an Internet browser or other software programs.

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 tracing your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
