Who We Are
Hey there! You’ve landed at NSW Events, the ultimate destination for event magic. We take privacy seriously, but we also like to keep things light. So, let’s break it down, shall we?
Comments: Be Cool, Play Nice
When you drop a comment (which we love!), we collect the data you provide—plus a little extra, like your IP address and browser info, to keep spam at bay. If you’re using Gravatar, your profile pic may pop up next to your comment. Gravatar’s got their own privacy policy here: Automattic Privacy Policy.
Media: Watch Those EXIF Files
Uploading images? Awesome! Just a heads-up—if your images contain location data (EXIF GPS), savvy visitors can extract that info. If you don’t want folks knowing where you snapped that sunset pic, scrub the data before uploading!
Cookies: The Digital Kind (Not the Yummy Ones)
-
Commenting? You can opt to save your name, email, and website in cookies so you don’t have to retype them next time. These last for one year.
-
Logging in? We set cookies to remember your login details and display preferences. Login cookies last two days (or two weeks if you check “Remember Me”). Log out, and poof! They disappear.
-
Editing a post? A one-day cookie will be saved to remember the post ID—nothing personal, just admin stuff.
Embedded Content: Other Sites, Other Rules
Sometimes, we embed content (like videos or articles) from other websites. These behave like you visited that site directly, meaning they may track your activity, collect data, or use cookies. We don’t control what they do, so be sure to check their policies!
Who We Share Your Data With
We don’t sell your data—pinky promise! The only time we share is if:
-
You request a password reset (your IP gets included in the reset email).
-
We need to run comments through a spam detection service.
How Long We Keep Your Data
-
Comments: Kept indefinitely, so we can recognize and approve follow-ups.
-
Registered Users: Your profile info stays put until you edit or delete it. Admins can see and edit this info too (except for usernames—those are set in stone).
Your Rights: You’re in Control
Got an account or left a comment? You can request an exported file of the personal data we have on you or ask us to delete it. The only exception: data we need for legal, security, or admin reasons.
Where Your Data Goes
Visitor comments get checked through an automated spam detection service. Other than that, your data stays safe with us.
Need More Info?
If you have any questions, just holler! We believe in transparency, security, and keeping things fun while making sure your data stays safe.
Happy browsing!
