This information may be used to:

  • display and administer comments;

An anonymised string created from your email address, sometimes called a hash, may be provided to the Gravatar service to determine whether you use that service.

If your comment is approved and you use Gravatar, your profile image may appear publicly alongside your comment.

Automattic provides information about its privacy practices on its own privacy website.

Comments and associated metadata may be retained for as long as reasonably necessary to maintain discussion records, moderation history, security and legal records.

6. Media

If the website allows visitors to upload images, you should avoid uploading images containing embedded location information such as EXIF GPS data.

Depending on the file and website configuration, visitors may be able to download images and extract embedded metadata.

7. Cookies and similar technologies

Wriviewer may use cookies and similar technologies.

Cookies are small files or pieces of information stored or accessed on your device.

They may be used for purposes including:

  • essential website operation;
  • security;
  • remembering preferences;
  • comment functionality;
  • login functionality for authorised users;
  • cookie consent management;
  • analytics, if enabled;
  • advertising or measurement, if enabled.

Essential cookies

Some cookies or similar technologies may be necessary for the website to function properly or securely.

These may not require consent where an applicable legal exemption applies.

Non-essential cookies

Where consent is legally required, non-essential cookies will not be placed or accessed until you have made an appropriate choice.

You should be able to accept or reject non-essential cookies through the website’s cookie controls.

The UK Information Commissioner’s Office states that users must receive clear information about cookies and, where consent is required, it must involve a genuine positive choice.

For more information, please see our Cookie Policy.

8. WordPress cookies

Wriviewer is built using WordPress.

Depending on how you interact with the site, WordPress may use cookies for certain functions.

For example, if comments are enabled, you may choose to save your name, email address and website in cookies for convenience.

Authorised users who log into the website may receive cookies used to maintain login sessions and remember administrative display preferences.

These administrative cookies primarily apply to authorised website users, editors and administrators rather than ordinary visitors.

Articles on Wriviewer may contain embedded material, such as:

  • videos;
  • social media posts;
  • images;

Embedded content may behave in a similar way to visiting the third-party website directly.

The third-party provider may:

  • collect information about your device or interaction;
  • use cookies or similar technologies;
  • record your interaction with embedded content;
  • associate activity with your account if you are logged into that third-party service.

The privacy practices of those services are governed by their respective privacy policies.

  • regulators, law enforcement bodies or courts where legally required.

Only information reasonably necessary for the relevant service should be provided.

If new third-party tools involving personal information are introduced, this Privacy Policy should be updated accordingly.

11. International transfers

Some technology providers may process or store information outside the United Kingdom.

Where personal information is transferred internationally and UK data protection law requires safeguards, appropriate mechanisms should be used, such as:

  • UK adequacy regulations;
  • recognised contractual safeguards;
  • the UK International Data Transfer Agreement;
  • the UK Addendum to approved contractual clauses;
  • another legally permitted transfer mechanism.

12. How long we retain information

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including legal, security, editorial and administrative requirements.

Retention periods may depend on the type of information.

For example:

  • general enquiries may be retained for as long as reasonably necessary to respond and maintain appropriate records;
  • business correspondence may be retained where necessary for contractual, accounting or legal purposes;
  • comments and moderation information may be retained while comments remain published or where moderation records are reasonably required;
  • security and server logs may be retained for limited periods depending on operational requirements;
  • consent records may be retained as evidence of privacy choices.

The ICO requires organisations to tell individuals about their purposes, retention periods and who personal information may be shared with.

Depending on the circumstances, UK data protection law may give you rights including:

  • the right to be informed about how your data is used;
