An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it.

4. How we store data
Circle Square maintains Personal Data’s confidentiality, integrity, and availability through robust security measures. Personal data is retained only as long as necessary for the purposes outlined in our policy or as required by law. This includes data needed for servicing accounts, supporting transactions, and maintaining user engagement. For instance, if you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can automatically recognize and approve any follow-up comments instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users who 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. When no longer needed, data is securely deleted or anonymized. Data may be stored and processed in various jurisdictions under strict security protocols to ensure compliance with legal standards and protect against unauthorized access or breaches.
5. Data access and sharing
• Internal Sharing: Essential Circle Square personnel can access data as needed to perform their duties. For instance, if you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
• Third-Party Providers: Collaborations with third parties for services like analytics, payment processing, and customer support under strict privacy agreements.
• Legal Compliance: Data may be disclosed to comply with legal obligations or protect rights.
• User Consent: Sharing based on user consent, particularly for marketing or linking accounts with third-party services.
• Public Interactions: Information shared in public forums or message boards is accessible by others.
• Access to Personal Data: Users can request to see the personal data Circle Square holds about them.
• Correction and Updating: Users have the right to have inaccurate personal data corrected or completed if it is incomplete.
• Deletion of Data: The right to request the deletion of personal data under certain circumstances.
• Data Portability: Users can request that their data be returned to them or transferred to a third party in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format.
• Restriction of Processing: Users can request a restriction on processing their personal data.
• Objection to Processing: The right to object to the processing of personal data in certain situations.
Circle Square commits to user empowerment regarding their Personal Data, ensuring transparency and control align with user-centric privacy standards. 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 does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
6. Your rights and control over your Personal Data

• Age Limit Adjustments: The policy sets an age limit for account creation and data collection, which aligns with legal requirements and Circle Square’s user demographics.
