Who we are
Welcome to Chic Haven Home, a home decor and lifestyle blog where creativity meets comfort.
Our website address is: https://chichavenhome.com
Your privacy is important to us, and this policy explains what personal information we collect, how we use it, and how we keep it safe when you visit or interact with our website.
Comments
When visitors leave comments on Chic Haven Home, we collect the data shown in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help detect and prevent spam.
An anonymized string (also called a hash) created from your email address may be provided to the Gravatar service to check if you’re using it. You can read the Gravatar service privacy policy here: https://automattic.com/privacy/.
After your comment is approved, your profile picture will be visible to the public alongside your comment.
Media
If you upload images to Chic Haven Home, please avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images that are publicly available on the site.
Cookies
If you leave a comment on our blog, you may choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. This is for your convenience, so you don’t have to re-enter your information the next time you leave a comment. These cookies will remain active for one year.
If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to check if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is deleted when you close your browser.
When you log in, we set up several cookies to save your login information and your display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, and screen option cookies last for one year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will remain active for two weeks. When you log out, the login cookies are removed.
If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie contains no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you edited. It expires after one day.
Embedded content from other websites
Articles on Chic Haven Home may include embedded content such as videos, images, or social media posts. Embedded content from other websites behaves the same way as if you had visited those websites directly.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with their content. This includes tracking your interaction if you have an account and are logged into those websites.
Who we share your data with
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email. We do not sell, trade, or rent users’ personal identification information to others. Any data shared is only done to provide essential website functionality and security.
How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This helps us 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.
What rights you have over your data
If you have an account on Chic Haven Home or have left comments, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided. You may also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you.
This does not include any data we are required to keep for administrative, legal, or security reasons.
Where your data is sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
