Who We Are
Welcome to Louis Emporium, operated by Louis Emporium. Our website address is https://louisemporium.com/.
What Personal Data We Collect and Why We Collect It
Comments
When you leave comments on our website, we collect the data provided in the comments form. Additionally, we collect your IP address and browser user agent string to help detect and prevent spam.
An anonymized string created from your email address (hashed) may be provided to the Gravatar service to check if you have a Gravatar account. Your profile picture, if available, will be visible to the public in the context of your comment. Please refer to the Gravatar service privacy policy at https://automattic.com/privacy/ for more information.
Media
If you upload images to our website, please avoid including images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS), as visitors to the website can download and extract this information from images.
Cookies
When you leave a comment on our site, you may choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. These cookies are for your convenience, so you don’t have to re-enter your details when leaving another comment. These cookies will remain on your device for one year.
If you visit our login page, a temporary cookie will be set to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and screen display preferences. Login cookies are valid for two days, and screen options cookies are valid for one year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login information will persist for two weeks. Logging out of your account will remove the login cookies.
Additionally, if you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie with no personal data is saved in your browser, indicating the post ID of the article you edited. This cookie expires after 1 day.
Embedded Content from Other Websites
Our articles may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles) from other websites. Embedded content from these websites behaves the same as if you visited the other website directly.
These external websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with their embedded content, especially if you have an account and are logged in to their website.
How Long We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This allows us to recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically, rather than holding them for moderation.
For users who register on our website (if applicable), we store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except for their username, which cannot be changed). Website administrators can also view and edit this information.
What Rights You Have Over Your Data
If you have an account on our site or have left comments, you have the right to:
- Request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us.
- Request the erasure of any personal data we hold about you, subject to any legal or security obligations we may have.
Please note that some data may be retained for administrative, legal, or security purposes, as required by applicable laws.
Where We Send Your Data
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
