Who We Are

Our website address is https://ichristians.org.

Comments

When visitors leave comments, we collect the data shown in the comments form, the visitor’s IP address, and the browser user agent string to help with spam detection. We may provide an anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) to the Gravatar service to check if you use it. You can find the Gravatar service privacy policy here. After approving your comment, we make your profile picture visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media

When you upload images to the website, please avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

Cookies

When you leave a comment on our site, you may opt-in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. These cookies are for your convenience so you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

When you visit our login page, we set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and we discard it when you close your browser. When you log in, we set up several cookies to save your login information and screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login persists for two weeks. When you log out of your account, we remove the login cookies. When you edit or publish an article, we save an additional cookie in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after one day.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if you visited the other website. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Who We Share Your Data With

If you request a password reset, we include your IP address in the reset email.

How Long We Retain Your Data

When you leave a comment, we retain the comment and its metadata indefinitely. This helps us recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue. For users that register on our website, we 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.

What Rights You Have Over Your Data

If you have an account on this site or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This request does not include any data we must keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where Your Data Is Sent

We may check visitor comments through an automated spam detection service.
