Who we share your data with
As we are a small business we rely on exterior web hosting services for hosting our website as we do not have servers on our own. This is a common practice with many businesses and websites. As we belive privacy is a fundemental human right, we believe that you have the right to know who we share your data with.
Your data is securely processed with a automated 3rd Party web hosting platform that maintain the automations and external resources of the website. Most data is anonymous, however some may include sensitive information. Furthermore Embeds like YouTube and Payment processing platforms like CashApp are processed externally. The limited data that they process on their own side of operations is secure as part of their own Privacy Policy practices. The data collected is dependent on the services that you use on the website. (IE: Paying with PayPal will cause PayPal to have some data to process your payment)
How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
Temporary Processing data is stored in most cases as long as the tab is open.

You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes. Furthermore, Data collected externally is not under our control and therefore can not be deleted by us.
