Your privacy is important to us. Here is our privacy policy.
Sara R. Conley – abiding in the vine – may collect your data while you are on our website. This page explains why we collect information and how it is used. We take your privacy seriously.
Your information is collected when you fill out a form on this website, including your full name and email address, and any comments you may include in the form fields.
This information is sent by email to our administrator. It is also stored in an email database through Mailchimp. You can view Mailchimp’s privacy policy here.
Your email address is added to our automatic email subscription service, which is used to send you new posts from our blog, and information about our business and services. You can opt out of this subscription service at any time by clicking “Unsubscribe” in our email. You can contact us here to opt out as well.
We always use a “double opt-in” service, where users not only fill out our subscription form, but confirm that they want to be added to our list. This is to make sure that you really are the one filling out the form and request.
Your data will be stored in Mailchimp until you request that we remove it.
We also use Google Analytics to gather data from our users including location, age, and similar demographics to help us to know how our website is being used. You can learn more about Google Analytics Privacy Policy here.
We will never share or sell your data.
You as the user have rights to request that we edit or remove your data from our system at any time. You may also request to see how your data has been used.
For more information, or to submit a request or complaint, you can contact us here.

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.
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.

If you have an account and you log in to this site, 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 a year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will 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 1 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.

Who we share your data with
We will never share or sell your data.
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.
