Cookies

We use cookies on our website and process your data (e.g. IP address), for example, to personalise content and ads, to integrate media from third-party providers or to analyse traffic on our website. The data processing may take place with your consent or on the basis of a legitimate interest. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

We collect different kinds of data and we process that data for different purposes. Such as contact details and basic information, e.g. your name, address, telephone number and email address. We use these basic information in managing your requests, like completing transactions and fulfilling orders made on our website.

Children’s data

At The SHAPES we do not target children, and we do not knowingly collect any personal data from anyone under the age of 18.

Comments

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.

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 anonymised 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.

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.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognise and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

Where your data is sent

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
