Privacy Policy

Who we are

Our website address is https://www.hostchacho.com. HostChacho is a sub-brand of Chunk Labs.

What personal data we collect and why

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

An anonymised string created from your email address (a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you use it. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media

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

Cookies

If you leave a comment you may opt in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies so you do not have to fill in your details again. These cookies last for one year.

If you visit our login page we set a temporary cookie to check whether your browser accepts cookies. It contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in we set cookies to save your login information and screen display choices. Login cookies last two days and screen-option cookies last a year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login persists for two weeks. Logging out removes the login cookies.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie is saved in your browser. It includes no personal data, simply the post ID of the article you edited, and expires after one day.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content behaves exactly as if you had visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed third-party tracking and monitor your interaction with that content, including when you have an account and are logged in to that website.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely so we can recognise and approve follow-up comments automatically.

For users who register on our website, we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. Users can see, edit or delete their personal information at any time (except their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

What rights you have 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 data you have provided. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal or security purposes.

Where we send your data

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