What personal data we collect and why we collect it
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
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. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
Media
If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.
Contact forms
The information that we collect is used solely by Wild Badger Power and is never sold to third parties. If a user submits a contact form to register their product for warranty, they may receive email communications from Wild Badger Power about their product and/or its warranty. A user will not be added to our upcoming products, sales, announcements, etc. email list unless they select to be added to that email list. The email list is then shared with MailChimp for marketing purposes. You information is shared with CartStack if you abandon your shopping cart and you may be re-marketed to be reminded of your purchase.
Cookies
If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.
If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.
If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after 1 day.
Embedded content from other websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has 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 with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
Analytics
We use Google Analytics and Google Search Console to track visits to our site. You can read more about the information that Google Analytics and Google Search Console collect here: https://policies.google.com/privacy.
Who we share your data with
We share your data with PayPal when you make a purchase, with USPS to deliver your purchase(s) and with CartStack for re-marketing purposes. We also share your email address, name and physical address with MailChimp for marketing purposes only. Users opt into this through a checkbox on our contact forms and through the newsletter sign-up on the site.
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.
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 does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where we send your data
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
Your contact information
You contact information is never sold to third parties. We only share your contact information with MailChimp if we have been given permission by you prior to sharing that information for marketing purposes. We keep your contact information secure and have an SSL on the website to encrypt all information that has been entered into the website. We also share your information with PayPal, Cart Stack and USPS to ensure that your packages are directed to the correct location.
