Who we are
Our website address is: http://thebusiness.reviews.
What personal data do we collect and why do we collect it?
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data displayed in the comment form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to assist in spam detection.
An anonymous string created from your email address (also called a hash) can be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The privacy policy of the Gravatar service 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.
Media and communications
If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Website visitors can download and extract location data from the images on the website.

Analytics
With whom we share your data
How long do we keep your data?
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so that we can automatically recognize and approve any follow-up comments instead of keeping them in a moderation queue.
For users who register on our website (if applicable), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can view, edit or delete their personal information at any time (except that they cannot change their user name). Website administrators can also view and edit this information.
What rights do you have over your data?
If you have an account on this site or have left comments, you may request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including the data you have provided to us. You may also request that we delete any personal information we have about you. This does not include any data that we are required to retain for administrative, legal or security purposes.
Where we send your data
Visitor comments can be verified through an automated spam detection service.
