Last Updated: June 11, 2024

Thank you for visiting Critic Film. We are committed to safeguarding your privacy and ensuring the secure handling of your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and disclose your information when you visit our website, including our use of Google AdSense, Google Analytics, Bing Webmaster, and other relevant services.

By using our website, you consent to the terms and practices described in this Privacy Policy. We may update this Privacy Policy periodically, so we encourage you to review it regularly for any changes. Any changes will be effective immediately upon posting the updated Privacy Policy on this page.

Information We Collect

Personal Information:

When you visit our website, we may collect certain personally identifiable information, such as your name, email address, and any other information you voluntarily provide through contact forms or registration processes. We will only collect personal information that is relevant and necessary for the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy.

We may use your personal information to:

  • Provide and personalize our services to you.
  • Respond to your inquiries or requests.
  • Send you promotional and marketing communications (only if you have opted-in to receive such communications).
  • Monitor and analyze trends and usage of our website.
  • Improve our website, content, and services.

Non-Personal Information:

We may also collect non-personal information, such as your browser type, device information, and website usage data. This information helps us improve our website, analyze trends, and administer the site effectively. Non-personal information cannot be used to identify you personally.

Non-personal information may be used for analytical and statistical purposes to enhance our website’s performance and user experience. This information may also be shared with third parties for similar purposes, but it will not include any personally identifiable information.

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 help with 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. 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, 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.

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 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 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 one day.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles). 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.

Who We Share Your Data With

If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.

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.

Your Data Rights

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.
