At Graye Group Realty, we are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring a secure experience on our website: https://grayegrouprealty.com. This policy outlines how we collect, use, and safeguard your information.

1. Information We Collect

User Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to assist in spam detection.

Gravatar Service: An anonymized string created from your email address (a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service. Their privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media Uploads

If you upload images to the website, please ensure they do not contain embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the website can download and extract location data from images hosted on the site.

2. Cookies and Tracking

To enhance your experience, we use cookies for the following purposes:

• User Convenience: If you leave a comment, you may opt-in to saving your name, email, and website in cookies so you don’t have to re-enter them. These cookies last for one year.
• Session Management: If you visit our login page, a temporary cookie is set to determine if your browser accepts cookies; it contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
• Login Persistence: When you log in, we set cookies to save your login info and screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for one year. Selecting “Remember Me” extends your login for two weeks.
• Content Management: If you edit or publish an article, a cookie indicating the post ID of your edit is saved. This expires after 24 hours.

3. Embedded Content from Third Parties

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, maps, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website directly.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that content, especially if you have an account and are logged in to those external platforms.

4. Data Sharing and Retention

Data Sharing

• Security: Visitor comments may be verified through an automated spam detection service.
• Account Support: If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email for security purposes.

Retention Periods

• Engagement Data: If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely to allow us to automatically recognize and approve follow-up comments.
• User Profiles: For users who register on our website, we store the personal information provided in their user profile. All users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (usernames cannot be changed). Website administrators also have access to this information.

5. Your Rights Over Your Data

If you have an account on this site or have left comments, you may request:

• An Exported File: A copy of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you provided to us.
• Data Erasure: That we delete any personal data we hold about you.
