Privacy Policy

Who We Are

Our website address is: https://roadracingstats.com.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string. This information helps in detecting and blocking spam.

An anonymized string generated from your email address (also called a hash) may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. The Gravatar service’s privacy policy can be found here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After your comment is approved, your profile picture will be visible alongside your comment.

Media

If you upload images to the site, please avoid including images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the site can download and extract any location data from images on the site.

Cookies

If you leave a comment, you may opt to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. These are for your convenience, so you don’t have to fill out your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will remain for one year.

When you visit our login page, we set a temporary cookie to check if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in, several cookies will be set to save your login information and screen display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, and screen option cookies last for one year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will remain for two weeks. If you log out, the login cookies will be removed.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie contains no personal data and only indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after one day.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (such as videos, images, or articles). Embedded content from other websites behaves the same way as if you visited those websites directly.

These external websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content, including tracking if you have an account and are logged into that website.

Who We Share Your Data With

If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.

How Long We Retain Your Data

If you leave a comment, both the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This allows us to recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically, instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users who register on our site (if applicable), we store the personal information provided in their user profile. All users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except for their username). Website administrators also have access to and can edit this information.

What Rights You Have Over Your Data

If you have an account or have left comments on our site, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you’ve provided to us. You may also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you, though this does not include data we are required to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where Your Data Is Sent

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
