Who we are

Our site address is: https://theauditcompany.nl.

Comments

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

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be sent to the Gravatar service if you use it. The privacy policy page of the Gravatar service can be found here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After your comment is approved, your profile picture is publicly visible in the context of your comment.

Media

If you are a registered user and upload images to the site, you should avoid uploading images with EXIF GPS location data. Visitors to the site can download the images from the site and view the location data.

Cookies

When you leave a comment on our site, you can indicate whether your name, email address, and site may be stored in a cookie. We do this for your convenience so that you do not have to re-enter this information for a new comment. These cookies are valid for one year.

If you visit our login page, we store a temporary cookie to check whether your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is deleted as soon as you close your browser.

Once you log in, we will store some cookies in connection with your login information and screen display options. Login cookies are valid for 2 days and cookies for screen display options for 1 year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will be saved for 2 weeks. Once you log out of your account, login cookies are deleted.

When you modify or publish a post, an additional cookie is stored by your browser. This cookie contains no personal data and only contains the post ID of the article you have edited. This cookie expires after one day.

Embedded content from other sites

Posts on this site may contain embedded content (e.g. videos, images, posts, etc.). Embedded content from other sites behaves exactly as if the visitor has visited this other site.

These sites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with this embedded content, including recording the interaction with embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that site.

With whom we share your data

If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.

How long we keep your data

When you leave a comment, that comment and its metadata are retained forever. In this way, we can automatically recognize and approve follow-up comments instead of having to moderate them.

For users who register on our site (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except that they cannot change their username). Site administrators can also view and edit this information.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site or have left comments, you can request an export file of your personal data we have from you, including all data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase all personal data we have from you. This does not include data that 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.
