About Us
Our digital presence can be found at https://esn.gg.
Commenting
When users post comments, we gather the information displayed in the comment form. For spam prevention, we also capture the user’s IP address and browser details.
If you have a Gravatar account, an obfuscated version of your email (known as a hash) might be sent to Gravatar to check if you’re a user. Upon your comment’s acceptance, your profile image becomes publicly associated with your comment. Gravatar’s privacy guidelines are accessible at https://automattic.com/privacy/.
Image Uploads
Should you add images to our site, refrain from including pictures with inbuilt location details (like EXIF GPS). Site visitors can obtain and isolate location specifics from site images.
Cookie Usage
Opting to comment allows you to save your name, email, and website in cookies for ease, preventing repeated data entry for future comments. These cookies remain for a year.
Upon accessing our login screen, a brief cookie checks your browser’s cookie acceptance. This cookie, devoid of personal details, is discarded post-browser closure.
Logging in triggers multiple cookies that remember your login and display preferences. Login-related cookies are active for two days, while display preference cookies last a year. Choosing the “Remember Me” option extends login duration to two weeks. Logging out deletes these login cookies.
Editing or publishing an article results in an additional cookie in your browser, marking the article’s post ID. This cookie is valid for a day.
Content from External Platforms
Our articles might feature integrated content (like videos, pictures, or other articles). Such content from different platforms acts identically to direct visits to those platforms.
Such platforms might gather your data, deploy cookies, incorporate third-party trackers, and observe your engagement with the integrated content, especially if you’re logged into that platform.
Data Sharing
Should you initiate a password recovery, the recovery email will contain your IP address.
Data Retention Duration
Comments and their associated metadata are stored indefinitely, enabling us to swiftly identify and approve successive comments without moderation delay.
For registered users, we retain the personal details they share in their profiles. While users can view, modify, or delete their details (except usernames), site administrators have similar access.
Your Data Control
Account holders or commenters can request a downloadable file of the personal information we possess about them. You also have the right to ask us to delete your personal data, barring data necessary for operational, legal, or security reasons.
Data Transmission
Comments may undergo automated spam detection scrutiny.
