Privacy Policy
Your privacy matters. This Privacy Policy explains what information is collected on Reciprocality.org, why it is collected, and the choices you have.
Who we are
Reciprocality.org is an information site. The main interaction available to visitors is the standard WordPress ability to leave comments on posts.
What we collect and why
Comments
When you leave a comment, we collect the information you enter in the comment form (such as your name and email address), along with your IP address and browser user-agent string. This helps with spam detection and basic site security.
Your email address is not displayed publicly with your comment.
Server logs
Like most websites, our hosting provider processes standard server logs. These typically include your IP address, the pages you request, timestamps, and basic device/browser information. This information is used for site operations, performance, security, and troubleshooting.
Cookies
This site may use cookies to make the site work properly and to improve convenience for visitors. For example, if you leave a comment, your browser may be offered the option to save your name and email address in cookies so you do not need to re-enter them next time.
Some cookies are also used by WordPress to support core site functions (such as login/session behavior for administrators).
Embedded content from other websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (for example, videos or images). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the same way as if you visited the other website directly, and those sites may collect data about you, use cookies, and track your interaction with the embedded content.
Spam and abuse prevention
We may use automated tools to detect spam or abusive behavior in comments. This processing is used to protect the site and maintain comment quality.
How we use information
- To publish and administer comments you submit.
- To prevent spam and maintain site security.
- To operate, maintain, and improve site performance and reliability.
How we share information
We do not sell personal information. Information may be processed by service providers necessary to run this website (such as web hosting and anti-spam/security services), and may be disclosed where required by law.
How long we keep information
Comments and their metadata may be retained indefinitely unless we remove them (for example, for moderation, legal, or maintenance reasons). Server logs are retained for a limited period according to our hosting and security practices.
Your choices and rights
You can choose not to leave comments. You can also control cookies using your browser settings, including deleting existing cookies and blocking new ones (note that some site functions may be affected).
If you have left comments on this site, you may request an exported copy of the personal data we hold about you, or request that we erase it, subject to any legal or operational requirements (for example, records we must keep for security or compliance).
How to contact us
