Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how HY Cutting Tools collects, uses, stores and protects information when visitors use our website.

Who We Are

Our website address is

Home

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the website, we collect the information entered in the comments form, together with the visitor’s IP address and browser user-agent information. This information may be used to help detect spam and protect the website.

An anonymized string created from your email address, sometimes called a hash, may be provided to the Gravatar service to determine whether you use that service. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available through Automattic’s Privacy Policy . After your comment is approved, your profile image may become publicly visible beside your comment.

Media

When uploading images to the website, you should avoid uploading files that contain embedded location information, including EXIF GPS data. Visitors may be able to download images from the website and extract location information contained in those files.

Cookies

When you leave a comment on our website, you may choose to save your name, email address and website address in cookies. These cookies are provided for convenience so that you do not need to enter the same information again when leaving another comment. These cookies may remain active for up to one year.

When you visit the login page, a temporary cookie may be created to determine whether your browser accepts cookies. This cookie does not contain personal information and is removed when you close your browser.

When you log in, several cookies may be created to save your login information and screen display preferences. Login cookies generally remain active for two days, while screen preference cookies may remain active for one year.

When you select “Remember Me,” your login may remain active for up to two weeks. Logging out of your account will remove the login cookies.

When an article or page is edited or published, an additional cookie may be stored in your browser. This cookie does not contain personal information and normally identifies only the post or page that was edited. It generally expires after one day.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Pages and articles on this website may include embedded content, such as videos, images, documents, maps or other materials. Embedded content from another website behaves in substantially the same way as if you had visited that external website directly.

These external websites may collect information about you, use cookies, add third-party tracking technologies and monitor your interaction with their content. This may include tracking your activity when you have an account with, or are logged in to, the external website.

Who We Share Your Data With

When you request a password reset, your IP address may be included in the password reset email. Information may also be processed by website hosting, security, spam-prevention and technical service providers when required to operate and protect the website.

How Long We Retain Your Data

When you leave a comment, the comment and its associated metadata may be retained indefinitely. This allows us to recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users who register on the website, we may store the personal information provided in their user profile. Registered users may be able to view, edit or delete their personal information, except for information such as a username that cannot be changed. Website administrators may also access and edit this information when necessary.

What Rights You Have Over Your Data

When you have an account on this website or have previously left comments, you may request an exported file containing the personal information we hold about you. You may also request that we erase personal information we hold about you. This does not include information that we are required to retain for administrative, legal, security or compliance purposes.

Where Your Data Is Sent

Visitor comments and form submissions may be checked through an automated spam-detection or website security service.
