At Entropy Online (https://entropy.onl), your privacy matters. This policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and your rights.
1. Information We Collect
- Comments: When you leave a comment, we collect the information you provide (name, email, website) along with your IP address and browser details for spam prevention.
- Gravatar: If you use Gravatar, a hashed version of your email is sent to their service to display your profile picture. See their privacy policy.
- Media: Avoid uploading images with location data (EXIF GPS), as visitors can download images and see that info.
- Cookies: We use cookies to improve your experience:
- Saving your comment details for convenience (1 year)
- Temporary login cookies to check browser compatibility
- Login and screen preference cookies (2 days to 1 year, depending on type)
- “Remember Me” keeps you logged in for 2 weeks
2. Embedded Content
Some posts may include embedded content (videos, images, articles). These behave as if you visited the source website directly. These third-party sites may collect data, use cookies, or track your interactions.
3. How We Use and Share Your Data
- IP addresses may be included in password reset emails.
- Visitor comments may be scanned by automated spam detection services.
4. Data Retention
- Comments and their metadata are stored indefinitely to help approve follow-ups automatically.
- Registered users’ information is stored in profiles. Users can view, edit, or delete their data (except usernames). Administrators may access this data for management purposes.
5. Your Rights
You can request a copy of your personal data or ask us to delete it, except for information we are required to keep for legal, administrative, or security reasons.
