What personal data do we collect, and why do we collect it
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comment form and the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help with spam detection.
We do not collect your email address from the comment form for use in any email list, such as a newsletter or marketing email list. We also never sell email addresses to third parties.
Media
If you do upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors can download and extract any location data from images on the website.
Contact forms
When you fill out a contact form at zafem.net, we only collect the information you enter into the contact form. If the form asks for your name, email address, or any other personal information, that information is emailed to us.
We only retain that information—including your email address—for as long as necessary to address your contact purpose.
Zafem does not ever use email addresses provided in contact forms for any purpose other than to reply to you regarding your reason for contacting us. We never sell information from contact forms to any third parties for any purpose.
