This Privacy Policy explains what information weXjournal (“we”, “us”, “our”) collects when you visit wexjournal.com, how we use it and the choices you have.
Information we collect
When you email us
If you email us, we receive your email address, your name if you include it, and the content of your message. We use this only to reply to you.
When you leave a comment
When you comment on an article, we collect the name, email address and website you enter, your comment, your IP address and your browser’s user agent string. These help us moderate comments and detect spam. All comments are reviewed before they appear. Your email address is never published.
To show profile pictures next to comments, an anonymised string created from your email address (a hash) may be sent to the Gravatar service to check whether you have a Gravatar profile. Gravatar’s privacy policy is available at automattic.com/privacy.
When you browse the site
Like most websites, our hosting provider keeps standard server logs, which can include your IP address, browser type, the pages you request and the time of each request. These logs are used to keep the site secure and running.
Analytics and advertising
We do not currently use analytics services or display advertising on weXjournal. If we add services such as Google Analytics or Google AdSense in future, we will update this policy and our Cookie Policy before they go live.
How we use information
- To reply to messages you send us
- To publish and moderate comments
- To protect the site against spam and abuse
- To meet legal obligations where required
We do not sell, rent or trade your personal information.
How long we keep it
Comments and their related data are kept for as long as the comment stays on the site. Emails are kept for as long as needed to deal with your request.
Third-party links
Articles may link to other websites. Their privacy practices are their own, and we encourage you to read their policies.
