Who we are

Gold Coast Canvas (“us”, “we”, or “our”) operates the https://www.goldcoastcanvas.com website.

What personal data is collected and why

You may be asked to provide your name and email address while visiting this site in order to leave a comment, submit a service inquiry, subscribe to our newsletter or to perform other activities. Your information will not be shared unless otherwise noted in this privacy policy. We will never knowingly collect personal identifiable information from a visitor who is not the age of majority.

Comments

When visitors leave comments, the site collects the data shown in the comments form, 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 here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Contact forms

When visitors fill out a contact form, they are asked for their name and email address so that we may respond.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on this site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

Embedded content from other websites

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.

Analytics

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.

What rights you have over 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 to us. 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 we send your data

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

Affiliate Disclosure

Where possible and appropriate, we utilize affiliate links to share product sources. If you choose to make a purchase after clicking one of these links, the retailer may send us a small commission, at no cost to you. Your use of these links is anonymous and we do not receive any personal identifiable information about you or your purchase. These commissions contribute to the upkeep of this small business without the need for extensive ad placement and we truly appreciate your support! Our promise is to always share our true opinions of a product and to never market or promote products that we would not use ourselves.
