At Pizzazz, we value your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, and safeguard your data when you visit our website at /.
Information We Collect
We collect information in a few different ways when you use our website:
- Comments: When you leave a comment, we collect your name, email address, website (optional), IP address, and browser user agent string to help prevent spam. Additionally, an anonymized string created from your email address may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you have a profile picture associated with it. You can learn more about Gravatar’s privacy policy here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. Your profile picture will be publicly visible next to your comment after it’s approved.
- Media: We recommend you avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) to our website. This is because website visitors can potentially download and extract this information from images.
- Cookies: We use cookies to enhance your user experience. These cookies may store your name, email address, and website for your convenience when leaving comments. Login information and screen display choices are also stored in cookies, with varying expiration times depending on the function. Logging out removes certain cookies, while others may persist for a specific duration. Editing or publishing an article creates a temporary cookie related to that specific post.
