Who We Are
At Coastview Solvents, your privacy is a top priority. Our website address is http://coastviewsolvents.com, and we are committed to safeguarding your personal information as you navigate our site.
Comments
When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect the data provided in the comment form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string. This data helps us detect and prevent spam.
We may also use an anonymized hash generated from your email address to check whether you’re using the Gravatar service. The Gravatar privacy policy is available at https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture (if provided) will be visible alongside your comment.
Media
If you upload images to our website, we recommend that you avoid including embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the site can download and extract location data from images, so it’s important to keep your personal information protected.
Cookies
To enhance your browsing experience, we use cookies. If you leave a comment on our site, you may choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies for convenience, so you won’t need to fill out your details again when leaving future comments. These cookies will remain active for one year.
If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine whether your browser accepts cookies. This temporary cookie doesn’t store personal data and is deleted when you close your browser.
When you log in, we’ll set up cookies to save your login details and screen display preferences. Login cookies remain active for two days, while screen preference cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. Logging out will remove these cookies.
If you edit or publish content, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie stores no personal data but simply notes the post ID of the article you’ve just edited. It will expire after one day.
Embedded Content from Other Websites
Articles on our site may contain embedded content such as videos, images, or articles. Embedded content from other websites behaves exactly as if you were visiting those websites directly. These third-party websites may collect your data, use cookies, and embed additional third-party tracking. They may also monitor your interaction with the embedded content, particularly if you’re logged into an account on their site.
Who We Share Your Data With
In certain cases, like when you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
How Long We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment on our site, both the comment and its metadata are stored indefinitely. This allows us to recognize and approve follow-up comments without needing to hold them for moderation.
For users who register on our website (if any), we store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All registered users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except for changing their username). Website administrators also have access to and can edit this information.
What Rights You Have Over Your Data
If you have an account on our site or have left comments, you may request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you. This file will include all the data you’ve provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you, excluding data we are required to retain for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where Your Data Is Sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service to ensure a secure and pleasant user experience on our site.
