Who We Are
Welcome to Smart Tip Traveler! Our website is available at: https://smarttiptraveler.com. We value your privacy and want you to understand how your data is collected and used when you interact with us.
Comments
When visitors leave comments, we collect the information entered in the comment form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser details, to help detect spam.
Additionally, an anonymized string (hash) generated from your email address may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you use it. Gravatar’s privacy policy is available at: https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture will be publicly visible alongside your comment.
Media
If you upload images to the website, avoid sending files that contain embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors can download these images and extract their location information.
Cookies
To enhance your experience, we use cookies on this website. If you leave a comment, you may choose to save your name, email, and website in cookies, making it easier for future visits. These cookies last for one year.
If you have an account and log in, a temporary cookie will be created to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie does not store personal data and is deleted when you close your browser.
When you log into your account, we set up cookies to store your login details and screen display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, while screen option cookies last for one year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out, the login cookies will be removed.
If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser, only storing the post ID of the article you edited. It expires after one day.
Embedded Media from Other Websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content such as videos, images, and articles. Embedded content from other websites behaves exactly as if the visitor had accessed the original website.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, incorporate third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content, especially if you have an account and are logged in to those sites.
Who We Share Your Data With
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
How Long We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely to automatically recognize and approve follow-up comments instead of holding them for moderation.
If you register on our website, we store the personal information provided in your user profile. All users can view, edit, or delete their personal data at any time (except for their username). Site administrators can also view and edit this information.
What Rights You Have Over Your Data
If you have an account on this site or have left comments, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided. You can also request the deletion of your personal data, except for information we are required to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where Your Data Is Sent
