Comments

When visitors post comments on the website, we collect the data displayed in the comment form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and the user agent string (which identifies the browser) to detect spam.

An anonymized string (also known as a hash) can be created from your e-mail address and handed over to the Gravatar to check if you are using it. You can find the Gravatar service’s privacy policy here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After your comment has been approved, your profile picture will be publicly visible in the context of your comment.

Cookies

If you write a comment on our website, this may be a consent to store your name, e-mail address and website in cookies. This is a convenience feature so that you don’t have to re-enter all this data when you write another comment. These cookies are stored for one year.

If you have an account and log in to this website, we will set a temporary cookie to determine whether your browser accepts cookies. This cookie does not contain any personal data and will be discarded when you close your browser.

When you sign up, we will set up some cookies to store your login information and display options. Login cookies expire after two days and cookies for display options after one year. If you select “Stay logged in” when you log in, your login will be retained for two weeks. When you log out of your account, the login cookies will be deleted.

When you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie is stored in your browser. This cookie does not contain any personal information and only refers to the post ID of the article you have just edited. The cookie expires after one day.

Embedded content from other websites

Contributions on this website may contain embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves exactly as if the visitor had visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking services and record your interaction with this embedded content, including your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to this website.

With whom we share your information

We would like to inform you that all personal data that you provide to us when using the blog will be processed exclusively by employees of the Carinthia University of Applied Sciences and used exclusively for internal purposes and will not be passed on to third parties. This does not apply to data that we are required by law to pass on to authorities and offices.

How long we store your data

When you post a comment, it is saved indefinitely, including metadata. This way, we can automatically recognize and approve follow-up comments instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users who register on our website, we also store the personal information they provide in their user profiles. All users can view, change or delete their personal information at any time (the user name cannot be changed). Website administrators can also view and change this information.

What rights you have to your data

If you have an account on this website or have written comments, you can request an export of your personal data from us, including any data you have provided to us. In addition, you can request the deletion of all personal data that we have stored about you. This does not include data that we are required to retain for administrative, legal or security purposes.

Where we send your data

Visitor comments could be analyzed by an automated spam detection service.
