Privacy Policy

At miroslavglavic.com, we are committed to maintaining the security and privacy of our visitors. While we may collect certain information to ensure the website runs smoothly, we take all measures to protect your data and adhere to global privacy regulations.

Security Measures

For security purposes, we use Wordfence, a widely trusted security plugin. Wordfence helps us analyze the IP addresses of visitors to protect the website from unauthorized access and potential threats. This process includes checking whether visitors are accessing the site from locations or addresses that may pose a security risk. In some cases, access from certain regions may be restricted based on security concerns. We do not share specifics about these measures to maintain the effectiveness of our security protocols.

Commenting and User Accounts

In order to post comments on miroslavglavic.com, visitors are required to log in. As part of the commenting process, WordPress collects information such as your IP address, email address, and the content of your comment. Please note that your IP address and email address are never made public. This information is collected solely for security purposes, to prevent spam, and to ensure a safe environment for all users.

When creating an account on miroslavglavic.com, you will be required to provide an email address and choose a username. The email address is used to send a verification link to activate your account. While it is possible to use a single-use or temporary email address, doing so may prevent you from using certain features of the site, such as password recovery. If you need to reset your password, the system will send a reset link to the email address associated with your account, so it is important to provide a valid email.

Information Usage

The IP addresses we collect are used solely for security, safety, and account maintenance purposes. We do not sell, rent, or otherwise distribute your personal information to any third parties. The information collected through your account is kept strictly confidential and is used only to maintain the functionality and security of the website.

Data Location and Management

Our servers are located in Pori, Finland, while we primarily manage the website from Toronto, Canada. Occasionally, we may need to update or manage the website while travelling, but regardless of our location, we maintain strict adherence to data privacy standards.

Legal Compliance

We are committed to complying with both the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and Canada’s Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA). If a legal request is made for user information, we will challenge any court orders or legal demands we receive. However, if a request is valid and legally enforceable, we are required to comply. Please note, if you do not provide a valid email address, we will not be able to notify you of any such requests.

Updates to This Policy

We regularly update our Content Management System (WordPress) to ensure the website remains secure. These updates may take place at any time, whether we are in Toronto or travelling. We will do our best to inform you of any major changes that affect this Privacy Policy.
