Privacy Policy

Who We Are

Our website address is: https://clubrive.com. ClubRive is a digital media publication covering health, travel, technology, and entertainment. We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about how we handle your data.

What Personal Data We Collect and Why

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form — your name, email address, and website — and also the visitor's IP address and browser user agent string to help 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 at https://automattic.com/privacy/. 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, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

Contact Forms

When you submit a contact form, we collect your name, email address, and the message you provide. This information is used solely to respond to your inquiry. We do not sell or share this information with third parties.

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 also 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.

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 had 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 embedded content.

Analytics

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with our site. This service collects anonymized information about your visit, including pages viewed, time spent, and referring websites. You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.

Advertising

We participate in the Google AdSense advertising program. Google may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to our website and other sites. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings.

Who We Share Your Data With

We do not sell your personal data to third parties. If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email. We may share data with trusted third-party services (such as Google Analytics and Google AdSense) as described above.

How Long We Retain Your Data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely so we can recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically. For users that register on our website, we also store the personal information provided 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.

What Rights You Have Over Your Data

If you have an account on this site or have left comments, you can request 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 data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where Your Data Is Sent

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service. Anonymized analytics data is sent to Google Analytics servers. Advertising data is processed by Google AdSense.
