The Big Fat Rabbitat Privacy Policy

Our Privacy Policy is meant to inform you of how we use your information (if any) while using our site. If you are concerned about your information being used, just ask. Your data is used only when necessary. If you complete any forms on our site, that data is passed through a third-party website for processing and support can be found here.

Our website address is: https://www.thebigfatrabbitat.com.

Comments are not Private

When you leave comments on our site, we collect the data shown in the comments form. We also collect your IP address and browser user agent string to aid in spam detection.

If you use an email address to comment, we may send an anonymized string (also known as a hash) to the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. You can find the Gravatar service privacy policy here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once we approve your comment, your profile picture becomes publicly visible in the context of your comment.

Media Uploads

Please note that our Privacy Policy does not cover media you upload to the website. To protect your privacy, avoid uploading images that contain embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Anyone can download and extract location data from images on our website. We are not responsible for the misuse of the media you upload.

Cookies

To leave a comment on our site, you may choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. This convenience means you won’t have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies last for one year.

We set a temporary cookie to check if your browser accepts cookies when you visit our login page. This cookie contains no personal data and we discard it when you close your browser.

Upon logging in, we set several cookies to save your login information and screen display choices. Login cookies last two days, and screen option cookies last a year. If you choose “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. Logging out of your account removes the login cookies.

Editing or publishing an article saves an additional cookie in your browser. This cookie, which includes no personal data, indicates the post ID of the article you just edited and expires after 1 day.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles, forms). Embedded content from other websites behaves exactly as if you visited those websites directly.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content. This includes tracking your interaction if you have an account and are logged into those websites.

Data Sharing

We include your IP address in the password reset email when you request a password reset.

Data Retention

We retain your comments and their metadata indefinitely. This helps us recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically, instead of holding them for moderation.

For users who register on our website, we store the personal information they provide in their user profiles. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (username changes are not permissible). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

Your Data Rights

If you have an account on this site or have left comments, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you. This includes any data you have provided. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not apply to data we must keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Data Processing

We check visitor comments through an automated spam detection service.

The Big Fat Rabbitat cares about your privacy.
