At Nick Does Labs (accessible from https://nickdoeslabs.com), the privacy of our visitors is one of our main priorities. This Privacy Policy document contains types of information that is collected and recorded by Nick Does Labs and how we use it.
If you have additional questions or require more information about our Privacy Policy, do not hesitate to contact us.
1. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Like any other website, Nick Does Labs uses “cookies”. These cookies are used to store information including visitors’ preferences, and the pages on the website that the visitor accessed or visited. The information is used to optimize the users’ experience by customizing our web page content based on visitors’ browser type and/or other information.
2. Google AdSense and Third-Party Advertising Disclosures
We use third-party advertising companies, including Google AdSense, to serve ads when you visit our website. These companies may use cookies, device-specific identifiers, location information, and other tracking data to collect anonymized information (not including your name, address, email address, or telephone number) about your visits to this and other websites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services of interest to you.
Google’s AdSense Cookies: Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads on Nick Does Labs. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to our users based on their visit to this site and other sites on the Internet.
Opting Out of Personalization: Users may opt out of personalized advertising at any time by visiting Google Ads Settings.
Alternative Opt-Out Methods: Alternatively, you can opt out of a third-party vendor’s use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page at www.aboutads.info.
3. Comments and User-Generated Content
When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help detect spam.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
4. Media
If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.
5. Embedded Content from Other Websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, diagrams, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website directly.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
6. How Long We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
7. What Rights You Have Over Your Data
If you have left comments on this site, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
8. Where Your Data is Sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
