Who

Our
website address is: http://digitalika.ch.
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
anonymised 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.
Contact forms
Should
you choose to contact us using the contact form or an email link, none of the
data that you supply will be stored by this website or passed to / be processed
by any third party data processors. Instead the data
will be collated into an email and sent to us over the Simple Mail Transfer
Protocol (SMTP). Our own SMTP servers are protected by TLS (sometimes known as
SSL) meaning that the email content is encrypted using SHA-2, 256-bit
cryptography before being sent across the internet. The email content is then
decrypted by our local computers and devices. However, not all mail servers are
secured in such a way. Therefore, we would suggest that you always consider
email as an insecure medium and not include personal, confidential or otherwise
sensitive information within an email.
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 one year.
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.
Analytics
Like
most websites, this site uses Google Analytics (GA) to track user interaction.
We use this data to determine the number of people using our site, to better
understand how they find and use our web pages and to see their journey through
the website.
Although
GA records data such as your geographical location, device, internet browser
and operating system, none of this information personally identifies you to us.
GA also records your computer’s IP address which could be used to personally
identify you but Google do not grant us access to
this. We consider Google to be a third party data
processor.
GA
makes use of cookies, details of which can be found on <a
href="https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/analyticsjs/cookie-usage"
target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Google’s
developer guides</a>. FYI our website uses the analytics.js
implementation of GA.
Disabling
cookies on your internet browser will stop GA from tracking any part of your
visit to pages within this website.
In
addition to Google Analytics, this website may collect information
(already held in the public domain) attributed to the IP address of the
computer or device that is being used to access it. The information is
supplied to us from Whoisvisiting.com. Whoisvisiting.com is a service
offered by Whoisdata Limited. The Whoisvisiting system does not use your IP address to
identify you, the individual, in any way. No cookies are used by the Whoisvisiting system.
Who
we share your data with
We may
use third parties to process personal data on our behalf. These third parties
have been carefully chosen and all of them comply with the legislation.

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.

website is hosted by hosttech.eu within European and/or Swiss data
