Embedded content from other websites
Suggested text: Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). 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. The SMS consent obtained from your customers will not be shared, sold, or disclosed with any third party or affiliate.
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.

CONSENT STRING
A consent string is a string of characters that encodes information about user consent for
the collection and usage of personal data for online advertising purposes. Your consent
string contributes to your compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).
Whether you need a consent string may depend on your location and the laws that apply to
your business. If you operate in the European Union or California and are collecting and
using personal data for online advertising purposes, you may need to obtain user consent
and use a consent string to store and convey this information. It is advisable to consult a
legal expert to determine the specific requirements that apply to your business. However, to
utilize the Pearl Diver service, we required this out of an abundance of caution.
How you add a consent string to your website varies depending on where you host your
website. Different hosts have different ways to add a consent string, either through an
inbuilt function they already offer or a recommended plugin they recommend implementing
with their software. You can also utilize a third-party software to run and manage consent
strings. We recommend discussing options with us directly, or discussing with an IT or
development contact who was involved with your website management.
