Privacy Policy

Who we are
Our website address is: https://thestyleodyssey.com.

Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help detect spam.

An anonymized string (called a hash) created from your email address may be provided to the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available at: https://automattic.com/privacy.
After your comment is approved, your profile picture becomes visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media
If you upload images to the website, avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the site can download and extract location data from images.

Cookies
If you leave a comment, you may choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so you don’t have to re-enter them for future comments. These cookies will last for one year.

If you visit our login page, a temporary cookie will determine if your browser accepts cookies. This contains no personal data and is deleted when you close your browser.

When you log in, several cookies are set to save your login info and display preferences. Login cookies last two days, screen options cookies one year. If you select “Remember Me,” login will persist for two weeks. Logging out removes the cookies.

If you edit or publish an article, another cookie will be saved in your browser. It includes no personal data and simply notes the post ID. It expires after one day.

Embedded content from other websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content behaves exactly as if you visited the original website.

These sites may collect data, use cookies, embed third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content – including tracking if you are logged in to that site.

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 kept indefinitely, so we can recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically.

For registered users (if any), we store personal information provided in user profiles. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal info (except their username). Website admins can also see and edit that information.

What rights you have over your data
If you have an account or left comments, you can request to receive a file of the personal data we hold, including any data you’ve given us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold. This does not include data we are required to keep for legal or security reasons.

Where your data is sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
