Disclaimer

Please note: This site reflects my personal opinions and should not be taken as professional or medically qualified advice. Please consult a skin professional if you have any major concerns.

Sponsored / Gifted products

Unless clearly marked as Sponsored or Gifted, all products mentioned have been bought and paid for by me, using my own money. Links marked as affiliate will produce a small amount of commission for me (the majority are there only for your convenience).

Who we are

The website address is: https://josordoni.co.uk/skin and is solely owned by me, Lynne Clark. I do not have any affiliation to any other company or website. All links are for readers’ convenience unless clearly marked as affiliate.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site we collect 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.

We will also pass your email address to our newsletter provider MailChimp to enable periodic newsletter to be sent to you. You can unsubscribe from newsletters at any time and your details will be deleted from their files.

We do not permit your details to be sold or passed to any other third parties.

Media

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on the 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.

If you visit the 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.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after 1 day.

You can delete any or all of these cookies from within your own browser at any time.

Embedded content from other websites

I may occasionally 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. Please make sure you are happy with the privacy policy for the remote website.

Who we share your data with

I will not sell or share your data to any third parties, other than to allow the efficient working of this website.

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

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so the site 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 allowed from time to time), 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 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.
