Data Collection and Use

Comments

When you engage with our community by leaving comments, we collect the data shown in the comments form. To enhance site security and help with spam detection, we also collect your IP address and browser user agent string.

If you use a Gravatar, an anonymized string (hash) generated from your email address may be sent to the Gravatar service to verify usage. The Gravatar service’s Privacy Policy is available here. Upon comment approval, your Gravatar profile picture becomes publicly visible alongside your comment.

Media

We advise against uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) to the site. Uploaded images are accessible to visitors, who can extract any location data from them.

Cookies

Should you leave a comment on our site, you have the option to save your name, email, and website in cookies for convenience, so you don’t need to re-enter this information for future comments. These cookies last one year.

Visiting our login page initiates a temporary cookie to check if your browser accepts cookies, containing no personal data and discarded once you close your browser. Logging in sets cookies to save your login details and display preferences, with login cookies lasting two days and screen options cookies lasting a year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login persists for two weeks. Logging out removes these cookies.

Editing or publishing an article places a cookie in your browser indicating the edited article’s post ID, expiring after 1 day.

Embedded Content

Our articles may feature embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles) from other websites, which behaves as though you have visited the source website directly. These sites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with embedded content, including if you’re logged in to those sites.

Data Sharing and Retention

Data Sharing

In the event of a password reset request, your IP address will be included in the reset email.

Data Retention

Comments and their metadata are retained indefinitely to automatically approve follow-up comments instead of holding them for moderation. For registered users, we store the personal information provided in their user profiles. Users can edit or delete their personal information at any time (username changes are not permitted). Site administrators can also see and edit this information.

Your Data Rights

If you have an account or have left comments on MMOSites.com, you may request an exported file of personal data we hold about you, including any data provided by you. You can also request the erasure of your personal data, excluding any data we must retain for administrative, legal, or security reasons.

Data Processing

Visitor comments may be screened by an automated spam detection service to ensure the integrity of our platform.

At MMOSites.com, we’re committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring a secure, enjoyable online experience. If you have any questions or concerns about our privacy practices, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
