Askari Miniatures will never share your personal information with anyone, at any time. Period.
We collect and use Information about your name and address solely to communicate with you and to ship orders to you. We collect only that information we absolutely need for those purposes.
We do not collect or store any credit card information. When you make an online purchase, you are re-directed to PayPal where PayPal collects payment on our behalf. All communication between you, the Askari site, and PayPal are encrypted for privacy and security.
Askari’s web store runs on WooCommerce software, which requires that the visitor’s computer accept a session cookie. This session cookie contains the session ID number which identifies the visitor to the store, as separate from other visitors. The session cookie contains no personal identity information, and is thus anonymous. A third party cannot use anything in the cookie to identify you in any way.
The session ID is used only to recognize what you have done during your visit to the store. This includes things like: whether the visitor has put something in their shopping basket, whether they have logged in. This allows you to proceed through checkout.
This session cookie expires at the end of your session in the browser, or at a predefined time (typically 24 minutes) after your last “click”, whichever is sooner.
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data in the comments form, as well as the IP address and browser string to help spam detection.
An anonymized string created from your email address 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.
Cookies
If you leave a comment on our 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 our 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 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. The login cookies are removed when you log out of your account,
Embedded content from other websites
Although unlikely, articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behave in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.
How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment, we will retain the comment and its metadata 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, 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 request that we erase any personal data we hold about you, except for any data we are required to keep for legal or security purposes.
