Who we are
Hubzone Depot (“we”, “our” or “us”) operates the website hubzonedepot.com. We are committed to protecting your privacy and to handling your personal information securely and responsibly.
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use and safeguard the information you provide while using our website.
Comments
When visitors leave comments on our website, we collect the information provided in the comment form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser information, to help detect spam and keep the website secure.
If you use the Gravatar service, an anonymized version (hash) of your email address may be sent to Gravatar to check whether your account has a profile image. After your comment is approved, your profile picture may be shown publicly alongside your comment.
Media
If you upload images to our website, we recommend removing any embedded location data (EXIF GPS) before uploading. Visitors to the website may be able to download and extract location information from publicly available images.
Cookies
Our website uses cookies to improve your browsing experience and to provide essential website functions:
- Comment cookies. If you leave a comment, you may choose to save your name, email address and website in cookies for your convenience. These cookies last for one year.
- Login test cookie. When you visit our login page, a temporary cookie checks whether your browser accepts cookies. It contains no personal information and is deleted when you close your browser.
- Login and display cookies. After you log in, cookies remember your login details and display preferences. Login cookies last for two days and display preference cookies for one year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login lasts for up to two weeks. Logging out removes the login cookies.
- Editing cookie. If you edit or publish content on the website, an additional cookie may be stored in your browser. It contains no personal information, simply identifies the edited content, and expires after one day.
Embedded content from other websites
Some pages on our website may include embedded content such as videos, images, maps or articles from third-party websites. Embedded content behaves in the same way as if you had visited the third-party website directly.
These websites may collect information about you, use cookies, employ additional tracking technologies and monitor your interaction with the embedded content. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party websites you visit.
Who we share your data with
We do not sell or rent your personal information to third parties.
Your information may be shared with trusted service providers that help us operate our website, such as website hosting providers, spam detection services, security providers and technical support partners. If you request a password reset, your IP address may be included in the reset email for security purposes.
How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment on our website, the comment and its metadata may be retained indefinitely. This lets us recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
If user registration is available on our website, we store the personal information provided in user profiles. Registered users can view, edit or delete their personal information at any time, except for their username. Website administrators may also access and manage this information when necessary.
What rights you have over your data
If you have an account on our website or have left comments, you may request a copy of the personal information we hold about you. You may also ask us to delete your personal data, subject to any legal, administrative or security obligations that require us to keep certain information.
Where your data is sent
To protect our website and visitors from spam and malicious activity, visitor comments may be checked by automated spam detection services. We take reasonable measures to make sure your information is handled securely during this process.
