At Turnskill Engineering, we are committed to protecting your personal information. Our website address is: https://africweb.co.za/wp.
Comments When visitors leave comments, we collect data from the comment form, the visitor’s IP address, and browser user agent string to aid in spam detection. An anonymized string (hash) from your email may be shared with the Gravatar service to check for an associated profile picture. You can review their privacy policy here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once we approve your comment, your profile picture becomes public within the context of that comment.
Media To maintain your privacy, please avoid uploading images that contain embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Other visitors can download these images and extract that location information.
Cookies
Comments: If you leave a comment, you can opt to save your name, email, and website in cookies for one year so you don’t have to re-enter them later.
Login: We set a temporary cookie on our login page to see if your browser accepts them; this contains no personal data and expires when you close your browser.
Sessions: When you log in, we establish cookies to save your login info (2 days) and screen choices (1 year). Selecting “Remember Me” extends login persistence to two weeks.
Publishing: Editing or publishing an article saves a cookie indicating the post ID, which expires after one day.
Articles on this site may feature embedded content like videos or images. This content from other websites behaves as if you visited those sites directly. These external sites may collect your data, use cookies, and track your interactions—especially if you are logged into an account on their platform.
We do not share your data broadly; however, if you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email for security.
Retention: Comments and their metadata are kept indefinitely to automate the approval of follow-up comments. For registered users, we store the personal info provided in their profiles. All users (except for changing usernames) and administrators can see, edit, or delete this information at any time.
Your Control: If you have an account or have left comments, you may request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you. You can also request that we erase your personal data, excluding information we must keep for legal, administrative, or security reasons.
Spam Detection: We may check visitor comments through an automated spam detection service.
