Welcome to The Capybara Cafe! Our website address is https://thecapybaracafe.com.

This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, and safeguard your data when you interact with our website.

1. Information We Collect
We collect and use various types of information when you visit our website, including:

  • Comments: When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, including the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help detect spam.
  • Media: If you upload images to the website, avoid including embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the website can download and extract location data from images on the site.

    • When you leave a comment, you may opt-in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies for convenience. These cookies last for one year.
    • If you visit our login page, we set a temporary cookie to check if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
    • When you log in, we set up several cookies to save your login information and screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, while screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. Logging out will remove the login cookies.
    • If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie is saved in your browser, containing the post ID of the article. It expires after one day.

2. Embedded Content from Other Websites
Articles on this website may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles). Embedded content from other websites behaves as though you visited the other website directly. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content, including tracking your interactions if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

3. Who We Share Your Data With
We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to others. However, if you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.

4. How Long We Retain Your Data

  • Comments: If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This allows us to automatically recognize and approve any follow-up comments instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
  • Registered Users: For users who register on our website (if applicable), we store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except for their username). Website administrators can also see and edit this information.

5. Your Rights Over Your Data
If you have an account on this site or 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 data we are required to retain for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

6. Where Your Data Is Sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service. Your data may also be stored on secure servers that comply with current privacy regulations.

7. Security Measures
We implement security measures to protect your information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, please be aware that no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is completely secure.
