Privacy Policy
Who We Are
Our website address is: https://5thstar-vacuumexcavation.com.au.
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help with spam detection.
An anonymized string (hash) created from your email address may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you’re using it. You can view the Gravatar privacy policy here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture becomes visible to the public next to your comment.
Media
If you upload images to the website, we recommend avoiding files with embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors may download and extract location information from images on the website.
Cookies
If you leave a comment, you may choose to save your name, email, and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so you won’t need to re-enter your details next time. These cookies last for one year.
If you visit our login page, we set a temporary cookie to check if your browser accepts cookies. It contains no personal data and is removed when you close your browser.
When you log in, we set several cookies to store your login and display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login persists for two weeks. Logging out will remove these cookies.
If you edit or publish a post, a cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie contains no personal data and simply shows the post ID of the article you edited. It expires after one day.
Embedded Content from Other Websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles). Embedded content from other websites behaves the same way as if you visited the original site directly.
These sites may collect your data, use cookies, embed third-party tracking, and monitor how you interact with that content—especially if you’re logged into an account on that site.
Who We Share Your Data With
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email for security purposes.
How Long We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment, both the comment and its metadata are stored indefinitely. This helps us recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically.
If users register on our site (if applicable), we store the personal information provided in their user profile. Users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time—except for their username. Site administrators can also view and edit this information.
Your Rights Over Your Data
If you have an account or have left comments, you can request a file of your personal data stored on our site. You may also request the deletion of your personal data, except for information we must retain for administrative, legal, or security reasons.
Where Your Data Is Sent
Visitor comments may be scanned by an automated spam detection service.
