Terms and Conditions & Privacy Policy

Who We Are

Our website address is https://chiccharise.com. Your privacy is important to us, and this policy outlines how we collect, use, and protect your information when you interact with our site.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help detect spam.

An anonymized string (also called a hash) created from your email address may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you have a profile image. You can review Gravatar’s privacy policy here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture becomes publicly visible within the comment section.

Media

If you upload images to the website, please avoid uploading images that contain embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the site can download and extract location data from images posted on the website.

Cookies

We use cookies to improve your experience on our site.

If you leave a comment, you may opt-in to saving your name, email, and website in cookies for convenience. These cookies last 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. If you log in, we set cookies to save your login details and screen display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, while screen options cookies last for a year. Selecting “Remember Me” keeps your login active for two weeks. Logging out removes login cookies. If you edit or publish an article, a cookie will be stored in your browser indicating the post ID of the edited article. This expires after one day.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (such as videos, images, and articles) from external websites. Embedded content behaves the same as if you visited the other website directly. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, and track your interactions, especially if you have an account and are logged in to that site.

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, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This allows us to recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them for moderation. If you register on our website, we store the personal information you provide in your user profile. You can view, edit, or delete your personal information at any time (except for your username). Website administrators can also access and edit this information.

Your Rights Over Your Data

If you have an account or have left comments, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any information you have provided. You can also request that we erase your personal data, except for information 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.

Affiliate Disclosure

Some of the links on Chic Charise are affiliate links, meaning I may earn a small commission if you make a purchase through them. This does not affect the price you pay as a customer. I only recommend products that I personally love and believe in.
