Privacy Policy .

Who we are

Our website address is: https://www.taskcontracts.com.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help with spam detection.

An anonymised string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to check whether you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available at: https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once your comment is approved, 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 published 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 for your convenience so that you do not have to re-enter your details when leaving another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie 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, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for one year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. Logging out of your account will remove the login cookies.

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 edited. It expires after one day.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (for example videos, images, or articles). Embedded content from other websites behaves in exactly the same way as if you visited the other website directly.

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

Who we share your data with

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

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This allows us to recognise and approve follow-up comments automatically rather than holding them in a moderation queue.

For users who register on our website (if applicable), we store the personal information provided in their user profile. All users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except for their username). 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 can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data 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.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details provided on this website. We may need to verify your identity before responding to your request.

Data security

We take appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. Access to personal data is limited to those who have a legitimate business need to access it.
