Who We Are
Our website address is: https://novascooter.com.
Comments
When visitors leave comments, we collect the data shown in the comment form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to assist with spam detection.
An anonymized string (hash) created from your email address may be provided to the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. Gravatar’s privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture (if linked to Gravatar) will be publicly visible alongside your comment.
Media
If you upload images to the website, avoid including embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors can download and extract location data from images on the site.
Cookies
- If you leave a comment, you may opt-in to saving your name, email, and website in cookies for convenience, so you don’t have to re-enter details for future comments. These cookies last one year.
- A temporary cookie checks if your browser accepts cookies when you visit our login page. It contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
- Upon login, we set cookies to save your session and screen preferences. Login cookies expire after two days, while screen options cookies last one year. Selecting “Remember Me” extends login persistence to two weeks. Logging out removes login cookies.
- Editing or publishing an article saves an additional cookie indicating the post ID. It expires after one day.
Embedded Content
Articles may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, links). Such content behaves as if you visited the source website directly, which may collect data, use cookies, and monitor interaction—especially if you’re logged into that site.
Data Sharing
Your IP address will be included in password reset emails.
Data Retention
- Comments and metadata are retained indefinitely to auto-approve follow-up comments.
- Registered users’ profile information is stored until deleted (except usernames, which cannot be changed). Administrators can view and edit this data.
Your Rights
If you have an account or have left comments, you may:
- Request an exported file of your personal data.
- Request erasure of your data (excluding data retained for legal or security purposes).
Data Processing
Visitor comments may be screened by automated spam detection services.
