WHO WE ARE

Our website address is: viehventures.com

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 with 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.

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 on the website.

COOKIES

If you leave a comment on our site, you may opt-in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for approximately one year.

If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if 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 choices. 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 by default. If you log out of your account, the login cookies should be removed.

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 just edited. It expires after one day.

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.

DATA SHARING

While we strive to uphold the highest standards of privacy and transparency, there may be instances where we are unaware of specific data sharing practices, especially concerning third-party plugins or services used on this website. We do not knowingly sell or rent your personal data to third parties. However, certain plugins or services integrated into this website may collect and share your data as part of their functionality.

We may also share your data with service providers who assist with website operations, such as hosting services and email service providers, only to the extent necessary for them to perform their services.

If users voluntarily provide data, it may be used for business purposes as necessary, such as responding to inquiries, processing orders, or providing requested services. While we strive to accommodate data access and deletion requests, please understand that our ability to fulfill such requests may be limited by technical or operational constraints beyond our control.

If you request a password reset, your IP address may be included in the reset email for security purposes.

Please note that while we make efforts to stay informed about data sharing practices, we may not always be aware of every instance of data sharing. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party services or plugins used on this website for more information on their data practices.

HOW LONG WE RETAIN YOUR DATA

We may retain any data sent to our site, including comments, emails, and information related to business engagements, indefinitely. This is to ensure that we can effectively manage and respond to inquiries, comments, and business transactions over time.

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata may be 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 may store the personal information they provide in their user profile indefinitely. 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.

YOUR RIGHTS OVER YOUR DATA

You may have certain rights regarding your personal information under applicable U.S. privacy laws. These rights may include:

Right to access: You may have the right to request access to the personal information that we collect, use, and disclose about you.
Right to deletion: You may have the right to request that we delete any personal information about you that we have collected, subject to certain exceptions.
Right to opt-out: You may have the right to opt-out of certain uses and disclosures of your personal information, such as for marketing purposes.
Right to non-discrimination: We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your privacy rights, including denying you goods or services, charging you different prices or rates for goods or services, or providing you with a different level or quality of goods or services.

To exercise your rights regarding your personal information, please contact us using the information provided in the "Contact Information" section below.

While we strive to accommodate such requests, please be aware that our ability to provide certain types of data may be limited by the capabilities of our website platform (WordPress) and the extent of data we have collected. We will make every effort to provide you with the requested information to the best of our ability. However, please understand that there may be circumstances where we are unable to fulfill your request due to technical or operational constraints beyond our control. Please note that there may be certain data that we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes, which may prevent us from fulfilling your request in its entirety.
