Cookies and tracking technologies

Relofession uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to improve site functionality and to support advertising.

If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies 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.

If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after 1 day.

Cookies may also be placed by Google and its advertising partners through the Google AdSense program.

How we use information

We use collected information to:

Operate and maintain the website.
Analyse site traffic and reader behaviour to improve content.
Display relevant advertising through Google AdSense and other ad networks.
Respond to reader inquiries sent through our contact channels.

Third party services

Relofession may use third party services for analytics and advertising, including but not limited to Google Analytics and Google AdSense.

These services may collect and process data according to their own privacy policies.

We encourage you to review Google’s Privacy and Terms page at https://policies.google.com/privacy for more information on how Google handles data.

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

Data sharing

We do not sell, rent or trade personal information to third parties for marketing purposes.

Information may be shared with service providers strictly to operate the site, such as hosting and analytics providers, and these providers are bound by their own data protection obligations.

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.

And if you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.

What rights you have 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 any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal or security purposes.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
