Who We Are
Welcome to the Flushing Village Club website, accessible at https://www.flushing-villageclub.co.uk/. We’re delighted to have you here.
Comments
When you engage with our site by leaving comments, we collect the information you provide in the comments form, along with your IP address and browser user agent string. This helps us in detecting spam effectively.
Additionally, if you have a Gravatar account, an anonymized string generated from your email address may be provided to the Gravatar service to check if you have a profile picture associated with it. For more details on Gravatar’s privacy policy, please refer to Gravatar’s Privacy Policy. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture (if any) becomes visible to the public alongside your comment.
Media
If you choose to upload images to our website, please ensure that these images do not contain embedded location data (EXIF GPS), as visitors can download and extract such information from the images on the website.
Cookies
When you leave a comment on our site, you have the option to opt-in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. These cookies are designed for your convenience, eliminating the need to fill in your details every time you leave a comment. They will last for one year.
Furthermore, when you visit our login page, a temporary cookie is set to determine whether your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
Upon logging in, we set up several cookies to save your login information and screen display preferences. Login cookies are valid for two days, while screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. Logging out of your account removes the login cookies.
Additionally, editing or publishing an article results in an additional cookie being saved in your browser. This cookie contains no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the edited article. It expires after 1 day.
Embedded Content from Other Websites
Articles on our site may include embedded content (such as videos, images, articles) from other websites. Embedded content behaves similarly to if you visited the originating website.
These third-party websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content, including tracking your interaction if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
Who We Share Your Data With
We do not share the data of visitors to our site with any third parties. Your privacy is important to us, and we ensure that your data remains secure and confidential.
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email for security purposes.
Data Retention
Comments and their associated metadata are retained indefinitely to facilitate the automatic approval of follow-up comments, rather than holding them in a moderation queue.
For users who register on our website, we store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users have the ability to view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time, except for their username, which cannot be changed. Website administrators also have access to view and edit this information.
Your Rights Over Your Data
If you have an account on our site or have left comments, 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 also have the right to request the deletion of any personal data we hold about you. However, this does not include any data we are required to retain for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where Your Data Is Sent
Visitor comments may undergo automated spam detection checks to maintain the integrity and security of our website.
