What personal data
we collect

 

Comments

When visitors leave comments on our website, we collect the information shown in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string. This data helps us prevent spam and maintain a safe, respectful environment for all users.

An anonymized string (hash) generated from your email address may be shared with the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture (if available) may appear publicly alongside your comment.

Media

If you upload images to our website (such as reviews or user content), we recommend avoiding images that include embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors may be able to download and extract such data from images displayed on the site.

Cookies

To enhance your browsing experience, Arova uses cookies:

  • If you leave a comment, you may choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies for convenience. These cookies remain for one year.

  • When you visit our login page, a temporary cookie is set to check if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is removed when you close your browser.

  • When you log in, cookies are used to store login information and display preferences.

    • Login cookies last for two days

    • Screen preference cookies last for one year

  • If you select “Remember Me,” your login will remain active for two weeks.

  • Logging out removes login cookies.

  • If you edit or publish content, an additional cookie may be saved to your browser indicating the post ID. This cookie expires after one day and contains no personal data.

Embedded content from other websites

Some pages on Arova may include embedded content such as videos, images, or articles from third-party websites. Embedded content behaves exactly as if you visited those external websites directly.

These third-party sites may collect data about you, use cookies, include tracking tools, and monitor your interaction with their content, especially if you are logged into their platforms.

Data Retention

Comments and their metadata are stored indefinitely. This allows us to automatically recognize and approve follow-up comments instead of holding them for moderation.

For users who register on our website (if applicable), we store the personal information provided in their user profile. Users can view, edit, or delete their personal data at any time, except for their username. Website administrators can also access and manage this information when necessary.
