Introduction

This Privacy Policy outlines how the EDS Zebra Club collects, uses, shares, and protects the personal information of users who visit our website. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring that your data is handled responsibly.

Information We Collect

We may collect personal information such as your name, email address, and other identifying details that you voluntarily provide to us when registering for our website, contacting us or subscribing to our newsletter. We may collect non-personal information like anonymous usage data, general demographic information, referring/exit pages and URLs, and platform types.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

Cookies

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

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.

Who we share your data with

We may share your information with trusted third-party service providers, such as website hosting providers and payment processors, for the purposes of providing our services.

We may disclose your information if required by law or legal process, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of our users or the public.

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.

What rights you have over your data

You have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal information held by us. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes. You can also opt out of receiving marketing communications. To exercise these rights, please contact us through our Contact Form.

Where your data is sent

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