Who we are

Our website address is: https://bknart.se.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the website, we collect the information shown in the comment form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user‑agent string to help detect spam. An anonymized string created from your email address (a so‑called hash) may be sent to the Gravatar service to check whether you use it. The Gravatar privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After your comment has been approved, your profile picture becomes visible to the public in connection with your comment.

Media

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

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our website, you may choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. This is for your convenience so you don’t have to fill in your details again the next time you leave a comment. These cookies last for one year.

If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine whether your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is deleted when you close your browser.

When you log in, we will also create several cookies to save your login information and your display settings. Login cookies last for two days, and screen‑settings cookies last for one year. If you choose “Remember me,” your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out, the login cookies are removed.

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

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this website may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in exactly the same way as if the visitor had visited the other website directly. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third‑party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content — including tracking your interaction if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Who we share your data with

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 stored indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and automatically approve follow‑up 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 they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit this information.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this website, or have left comments, you can request 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 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.
