What personal data we collect and why we collect it

Comments

Short version: We use the information and data you provide when you reach out to us, to facilitate our reaching back to you. We use the information and data you provide when you visit our site to ensure you are real (a human) and not a bot. We use the bare minimum personal data necessary to enable you to navigate our site and access our music, calendar and blog, and to let us know where people are listening to us. Beyond that, we do not intentionally harvest nor retain your personal information and data for other purposes. Privacy matters to us. Big time. We wish we could say the same for third parties whose services we use to build and maintain this site, but we cannot because we simply do not know what others do and why. Please refer to their respective privacy policies.

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.

Contact forms

Short version: We have one. It works. If you use it to reach out to us, you provide personal information and data. It’s the inherent nature of interpersonal communication–and digital comms in particular. Choose to contact us–or not–accordingly.

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.

If you visit our login page, 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

Who we share your data with

If 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, 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.

Your contact information

Short version: We can think of three reasons we would have your contact information: you gave it to us so we could (1) respond to a question; (2) you signed up for our mailing list; (3) you posted a comment in response to content on our website. (Thanks in advance!) That said, we won’t knowingly sell, give, or otherwise provide your contact info to anyone who does not have a law enforcement badge in his/her ID wallet and a warrant in hand.
