What personal data we collect and why we collect it

Comments

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.

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

Third-party data. JOC may also receive information from affiliates in our corporate group, our partners, or others that we use to make our own information better or more useful. This might be aggregate level information, or it might be more specific information, such as about how well an online marketing or email campaign performed.

In addition, we use third parties like Google Analytics for website analytics. You may opt-out of third-party cookies from Google Analytics on its website.

Who we share your data with

To understand and improve our Services, we carry out research and analyze trends to better understand how users are using the Services and improve them. 

Billing and account management. We use account data to administer accounts and keep track of billing and payments.

Communicating with you and marketing. We need to contact you for invoicing, account management, and similar reasons. We may also use your contact information for our own marketing or advertising purposes. You can opt-out of these at any time.

Investigating and preventing bad stuff from happening. We work hard to keep the Services secure and to prevent abuse and fraud.

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

The customer provides us with instructions on what to do with Customer Data. A Customer has many choices and control over Customer Data. For example, Customer may provision or deprovision access to the Services, enable or disable third party integrations, manage permissions, modify settings, transfer or assign groups. Since these choices and instructions may result in the access, use, disclosure, modification, or deletion of certain or all Customer Data, please review the manual on the Knowingo admin panel for more information about these choices and instructions.
