Privacy Policy

General Information

I created this blog to share recipes, baking tips, craft projects and other ideas. All content is written, produced and edited by me (Rebecca). My website address is https://www.rosesandwhiskers.com. Feel free to contact me at rosesandwhiskers1@gmail.com if you have any questions.

Occasionally I may partner with brands and products that I use and love. I’ll be upfront if I’m compensated for a post, but I can guarantee that I will never accept payment for a review that doesn’t honestly and accurately reflect my opinion. I may also share facts about the brand/product and information provided by the company. I’ll clearly state at the beginning of a post if it involves a brand or product partnership.

Copyright Policy

All images and other content are copyright protected ©rosesandwhiskers. Please do not use my images or content without my permission. You can request permission by contacting me at rosesandwhiskers1@gmail.com. If you want to share one of my recipes on your blog or otherwise republish my content, please rewrite it in your own words and link back to my post. For example, the link could read: “This recipe for _____ was created by Rebecca at Roses & Whiskers.”

What personal data we collect and why we collect it

This privacy policy explains what personal information Roses & Whiskers collects and how it may be used. Roses & Whiskers respects your privacy and is committed to protecting it. This policy only applies to rosesandwhiskers.com.

Any identifying information that Roses & Whiskers asks you to provide will only be used in accordance with this privacy policy. Check this page every so often for policy updates. The current version is effective as of December 2018.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on this site it collects 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 this 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.

If you have an account and you log in to this site, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a 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.

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.

Analytics

In this subsection you should note what analytics package you use, how users can opt out of analytics tracking, and a link to your analytics provider’s privacy policy, if any.

By default WordPress does not collect any analytics data. However, many web hosting accounts collect some anonymous analytics data. You may also have installed a WordPress plugin that provides analytics services. In that case, add information from that plugin here.

Who we share your data with

Source: Akismet

We collect information about visitors who comment on Sites that use our Akismet anti-spam service. The information we collect depends on how the User sets up Akismet for the Site, but typically includes the commenter’s IP address, user agent, referrer, and Site URL (along with other information directly provided by the commenter such as their name, username, email address, and the comment itself).

Source: WP Recipe Maker

Bootstrapped Ventures, the developer of WP Recipe Maker, does not have access to any of the data collected by the plugin. This is all stored in your local database and not communicated back to us. Take note of the following topics for your own privacy policy.

When comment ratings are enabled we store the rating a user has given to a recipe along with the personal data WordPress core stores.

When user ratings are enabled we store a WPRM_User_Voted_%recipe% cookie (with %recipe% the ID of the recipe) that contains the rating this user has given to a particular recipe. This cookie is used as (one of the) measures to prevent rating spam.

When user ratings are enabled we store the IP address upon voting. This is used as (one of the) measures to prevent rating spam. With the Recipe Submission feature personal data can be collected, depending on the fields that were added to the form. This can include the user email and name. When using the reCAPTCHA feature you will be agreeing to their terms of use and privacy policy.

Our cookies are stored for 30 days. User submitted data is stored indefinitely in the local database.

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.

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.

Where we send your data

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