Privacy Policy
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string. This information helps us detect spam and maintain site security.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to determine whether you use it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture may be 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). Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the site.
Cookies
If you leave a comment on our site, you may opt in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. These cookies are provided for your convenience so you do not have to re-enter your information when leaving future comments. These cookies last for one year.
If you visit our login page, a temporary cookie may be set to determine whether your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
When you log in (if applicable), cookies may be set to save your login information and screen display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, and screen preference cookies last for one year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. Logging out removes login cookies.
If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie may be saved in your browser. This cookie contains no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you edited. It expires after one day.
Embedded Content from Other Websites
Articles on Stay48 may include embedded content such as videos, images, maps, or articles. Embedded content from other websites behaves exactly as if you visited those websites directly.
These third-party sites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content—especially if you are logged into an account on that service. Stay48 does not control the data practices of third-party websites.
Who We Share Your Data With
If you request a password reset, your IP address may be included in the reset email.
Visitor comments may be checked through automated spam detection services.
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information.
How Long We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This allows us to recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically rather than holding them for moderation.
For users who register on our website (if applicable), we store the personal information provided in their user profile. Users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time, except for usernames. Website 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 may request:
- An exported file of the personal data we hold about you
- Deletion of any personal data we hold about you
This does not include data we are required to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Requests can be made using the contact information provided on the site.
Where Your Data Is Sent
Visitor comments may be processed through automated spam detection services, which may operate outside your country of residence.
