Who we share your data with

This includes exchanging information with other entities for fraud protection and credit risk reduction.

Sale or bankruptcy

If we reorganize or sell all or a portion of our assets, undergo a merger, or are acquired by another entity, we may transfer your information to the successor entity. If we go out of business or enter bankruptcy, your information would be an asset transferred or acquired by a third party. You acknowledge that such transfers may occur and that the transferee may decline honor commitments we made in this Privacy Policy.

We are not responsible for the actions of third parties with whom you share personal or sensitive data, and we have no authority to manage or control third-party solicitations. If you no longer wish to receive correspondence, emails or other communications from third parties, you are responsible for contacting the third party directly.

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.

Do Not Track

No uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As such, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this Privacy Policy. Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems include a Do-Not-Track (“DNT”) feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected.

  2. Containment and recovery – As part of the breach management steps to be taken, the following measures have to be considered immediately, where applicable: Shut down the compromised system that led to the data breach, prevent further unauthorized access to the system, reset passwords if accounts and passwords have been compromised, establish whether steps can be taken to recover lost data and limit any damage caused by the breach (e.g. remotely disabling a lost laptop containing personal data of clients and/or individuals), isolate the causes of the data breach in the system, and where applicable, change the access rights to the compromised system and remove external connections to the system notify the police if criminal activity is suspected and preserve evidence for investigation (e.g. hacking, theft or unauthorized system access by an employee), put a stop to practices that led to the data breach, address lapses in processes that led to the data breach.
  3. Risk assessment – Knowing the risks and impact of the data breach will help to determine the consequences to affected organizations and individuals, as well as the steps necessary to notify the organizations and individuals affected.
    For each data breach it has to be assessed:
    -How many people were affected?
    -Whose personal data has been breached?
    -To whom does the personal data belong?
    -What types of personal data were involved?
    -Is there a risk to reputation, identity theft, safety and/or financial loss of affected individuals?

Evaluation of the response & recovery to prevent future breaches – After these steps have been taken to resolve the data breach, the cause of the breach has to be reviewed and it has to be evaluated whether existing protection and prevention measures are sufficient to prevent similar breaches from occurring.
    We will assess whether:
    -There are processes that can be streamlined or introduced to limit the damage if future breaches happen or to prevent a relapse;
    -There were weaknesses in existing security measures and protection measures;
