Privacy Policy

Who we are

This is the official archive of Silvia Moan — https://silviamoan.co.uk. Therefore, this Privacy Policy explains how we handle your information on this site and why it matters.

Comments

When you leave comments, the system collects the text you enter, along with your IP address and browser information. In addition, we collect this data only for spam protection, making sure interactions remain safe. This Privacy Policy also explains how comment-related data is processed and retained.

If you use Gravatar, the system creates an anonymous hash of your email and then sends it to their service to show your avatar. For clarity, their privacy policy is here: Automattic Privacy.

Media

If you upload images, avoid embedding location data (EXIF GPS). Otherwise, visitors may download and extract location details from those files. For this reason, this Privacy Policy states clearly that you are responsible for what you upload.

Cookies

• If you leave a comment, you can choose to save your name and email in a cookie so you don’t have to retype them later. This cookie lasts for one year.
• Login cookies last up to two weeks if you check “Remember Me.”
• Temporary cookies check if your browser accepts them before logging you in.
• These cookies are not for tracking; instead, they only support site functionality.

As outlined in the Privacy Policy, cookies exist strictly for convenience and functionality. Moreover, you can clear them anytime from your browser settings.

Embedded Content

Articles may include embedded content (videos, images, links, etc.). In practice, embedded content behaves as if you visited the other site directly, which may track or log your interaction. However, this Privacy Policy does not cover third-party sites.

We include only limited third-party content to help protect your data and, in turn, maintain transparency.

Data Sharing

If you request a password reset, the reset email includes your IP address. Furthermore, we never sell or share personal data with third parties for advertising. This Privacy Policy ensures your information stays secure and private.

Data Retention

• Site administrators can access profile information when necessary.
• The system stores comments and their metadata indefinitely so repeat comments can be auto-approved quickly.
• Registered users (if enabled) can view, edit, or delete their profile info anytime.

In short, this Privacy Policy explains clearly how long data stays stored and who can access it.

Your Rights

• You may request an export of your personal data stored here.
• You may also request deletion of your data, except where legal or security obligations require retention.

Therefore, the Privacy Policy protects your right to control your own data.

Data Protection

Automated spam detection tools review comments. Additionally, this site uses minimal plugins and no invasive tracking. For that reason, the Privacy Policy confirms these protective measures.

Lore Note – Privacy Policy

“Unlike the corrupted networks that harvest every click and whisper, the Hollow Archive does not prey on its visitors. Instead, you walk unseen through these halls — only the echoes of your own words remain, if you choose to leave them.”
