Privacy Policy

The privacy policy below explains how data is handled on this site.

Who we are

Our website address is: https://arrowengineering.com/

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, to help with spam detection.

An anonymised string created from your email address (a “hash”) may be shared with the Gravatar service to check whether you are using it. You can review the Gravatar service privacy policy at automattic.com/privacy.

After your comment is approved, your profile picture is visible to the public alongside your comment.

Media

If you upload images to this website, please avoid uploading images that include embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the site may be able to download and extract this location data from images.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site, you may opt in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These exist purely for your convenience, so you don’t need to re-enter your details when leaving another comment. They last for one year.

If you visit our login page, a temporary cookie is set to check whether your browser accepts cookies. It contains no personal data and is discarded as soon as you close your browser.

When you log in, we also set several cookies to save your login details and screen display choices. Login cookies last two days, and screen-option cookies last a year. Selecting “Remember Me” extends your login session to two weeks. Logging out removes the login cookies.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie is saved in your browser. This cookie holds no personal data — it simply records the post ID of the article you edited, and 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 exactly as if you had visited that other website directly.

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 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 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 automatically approve any follow-up comments, rather than holding them in a moderation queue.

For registered users (if any), we also store the personal information provided in their user profile. All users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time, except their username. Website administrators can also view 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 an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you’ve provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you, except data we’re required to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where we send your data

Some comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
