Comments

When visitors leave comments on TailWaggingFun.com, we collect the information displayed in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to assist with spam detection.

An anonymized string (also known as a hash) generated from your email address may be shared with the Gravatar service to determine whether you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available at: https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture (if linked to Gravatar) will be publicly visible alongside your comment.


Media

If you upload images to the website, we recommend avoiding images that contain embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the site may download and extract location data from images posted on the website.


Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site, you may choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. These cookies are for your convenience so you don’t have to re-enter your details when leaving another comment. These cookies will remain active for one year.

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

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

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be stored in your browser. This cookie contains no personal data and simply records the post ID of the edited article. It expires after one day.


Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on TailWaggingFun.com may include embedded content such as videos, images, or articles. Embedded content behaves exactly as if you visited the originating website directly.

These third-party websites may collect data about you, use cookies, implement additional tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content — especially if you have an account and are logged into that website.


Who We Share Your Data With

If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email for security purposes.


How Long We Retain Your Data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This allows us to 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 may view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except usernames). Website administrators also have access to view and edit this information.


What Rights You Have Over Your Data

If you have an account or have left comments on our site, you may request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including data you have provided. You may also request that we erase your personal data, except for information we are required to retain for administrative, legal, or security reasons.


Where Your Data Is Sent

Visitor comments may be reviewed through an automated spam detection service to help maintain the safety and integrity of our community.
