Privacy Policy

Welcome to Good Morning Italy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you visit our website, https://morningitaly.com.

Who We Are

Our website address is: https://morningitaly.com.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help with spam detection.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also known as a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: Gravatar Privacy Policy. 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.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our website, you can choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. These are used for your convenience so that you don’t have to enter your details again when leaving another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

If you visit the login page, a temporary cookie will be set to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie does not contain personal data and is deleted when you close your browser.

When you log in, several cookies will be set to save your login information and screen display options. Login cookies last for two days, while screen option cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, login cookies will be removed.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie does not include personal data but simply indicates the ID of the recently modified article. It expires after 1 day.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (such as videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves exactly as if the visitor had visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, integrate additional third-party tracking, and monitor interaction with them, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to those websites.

With Whom We Share Your Data

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 how we can automatically recognize and approve any subsequent comments instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users who 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 for their username, which cannot be changed). Website administrators can also view and modify this information.

Your Rights Regarding Your Data

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. 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.

Where Your Data Is Sent

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
