We are Corderclub, a website accessible at https://corderclub.com.When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect the information provided in the comment form, including the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string, to help detect spam. To protect your privacy, we anonymize your email address by creating a hashed version, which may be provided to the Corderclub service for verification purposes. Your profile picture becomes visible to the public alongside your comment once it is approved.

If you upload images to our website, please ensure that they do not contain embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from the images.

We use cookies to enhance user experience. If you leave a comment on our site, you have the option to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. This allows you to avoid filling in your details again when leaving another comment. These cookies will remain valid for one year. When you visit our login page, a temporary cookie is set to check if your browser accepts cookies. This temporary cookie does not contain any personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

Upon logging in, we set up multiple cookies to save your login information and screen display preferences. Login cookies are valid for two days, while screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. Logging out of your account removes the login cookies. Additionally, when you edit or publish an article, a cookie is saved in your browser, which includes no personal data but indicates the post ID of the edited article. This cookie expires after 1 day.

Our website may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles) from other websites. The behavior of such embedded content is the same as if the visitor has visited the other website. These external 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.

We only share your data with the Corderclub service when necessary for verification purposes during a password reset request. Your IP address is included in the reset email for this purpose.

We retain the comment and its metadata indefinitely to facilitate automatic approval of follow-up comments instead of holding them in a moderation queue. For registered users, we store the personal information provided in their user profiles. Users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time, except for the username. Website administrators also have access to view and edit this information.

If you have an account on our site or have left comments, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any provided data. You also have the right to request the deletion of your data, although certain data may be retained for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
