Who we are
Welcome to Pawsitively Pawsome Reviews, your trusted source for all things pet-related! Our website, located at https://www.pawsitivelypawesomereviews.com, is dedicated to providing you with valuable insights into the world of pet products and services.
Comments
Here at Pawsitively Pawsome Reviews, we value your feedback and engagement. When you leave comments on our site, we collect the information you provide in the comments form, along with your IP address and browser user agent string. These measures help us keep pesky spam at bay.
In the spirit of adding a personal touch, we may also use a hashed version of your email address to check if you’re using Gravatar, an awesome service for profile pictures. Check out Gravatar’s privacy policy here: Gravatar Privacy Policy. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture becomes part of the public conversation.
Media
When it comes to sharing media, remember to be mindful. If you decide to upload images to our website, please be cautious and avoid including any sneaky location data (EXIF GPS) in those pictures. We want to make sure your privacy is as well-protected as your pet!
Cookies
Our cookies are just as delightful as your furry friends! If you leave a comment, you can opt-in to have your name, email address, and website saved in cookies. These little helpers are here to make your experience smoother, saving you the hassle of entering your details every time you want to join the conversation. These cookies, however, have a lifespan of one year.
When you swing by our login page, we’ll give you a temporary cookie to see if your browser likes cookies as much as we do. Don’t worry, this cookie doesn’t spill the beans on any personal data, and it’s tossed away when you close your browser.
Logging in? We’ve got your back. We use a set of cookies to save your login information and your screen preferences. Login cookies are good company for two days, while screen options cookies stick around for a year. And if you click “Remember Me,” your login will be like an old friend, staying for two weeks. But if you ever decide to log out, these login cookies will be gone.
Oh, and when you edit or publish an article, we toss another cookie into the mix. This one’s like a sticky note, telling us the article’s ID. It’s nothing personal and it expires after a day.
Embedded content from other websites
Our site is like a pet-friendly park where various content can mingle. Articles here may feature embedded content, such as videos, images, and articles, just like a virtual playdate. When you interact with this content, it’s as if you’re visiting another website. Keep in mind that these external sites might scoop up some data, use cookies, or sprinkle in some third-party tracking.
Remember, they’ll be watching, especially if you have an account and are logged into their website.
Who we share your data with
If you ever need a password reset, your IP address will make a cameo in the reset email, just to confirm your identity.
How long we retain your data
Comments are our cherished memories, and we plan to keep them indefinitely. This way, we can quickly recognize and approve follow-up comments without making you wait.
For our registered users, we securely store the personal information they provide in their user profile. You’re in control; all users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except for the username, which remains unchanged). Website administrators have a backstage pass to see and edit this information as well.
What rights you have over your data
If you have an account with us or have left comments, you can request an exported file of the personal data we’ve gathered about you, including any information you’ve shared. You can also ask us to erase any personal data we hold about you, except for data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where we send your data
Visitor comments may undergo a quick automated check for spam detection. Rest assured, your comments are in good hands.
