⧉ What personal data we collect and why we collect it:
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.
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.
Contact forms:
The website does not currently have a contact form. If you contact us by email, all header information in the email will be visible to the recipient.
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 have an account and you log in to this site, 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.
Embedded content from other websites:
Articles on this site may 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 tracing your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
Analytics:
Our website uses both Ezoic and Google Analytics, web analytics services provided by Ezoic, Inc. (“Ezoic”), & Google, Inc. (“Google”).
The information generated by the cookie about your use of our website (including your IP address) will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States.
The analytics providers will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of our website, compiling reports on website activity for website operators and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage.
Both Ezoic and Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on either behalf.
Neither analytics provider will associate your IP address with any other data held by them.
Further information about either Ezoic or Google’s privacy policy may be obtained from both https://g.ezoic.net/privacy/healthtrekker.net, and http://www.google.com/privacy.html.
Subscriptions:
If you wish to subscribe to update services such as the email newsletter and OneSignal browser notifications, each service provider will collect some data on each user.

FeedBurner is a Google service and is governed by the the same privacy policy as above.
OneSignal is an independent company whose privacy policy may be obtained from here: https://onesignal.com/privacy_policy.
Caching And Acceleration Services:
LiteSpeed Cache:
This site utilizes caching in order to facilitate a faster response time and better user experience. Caching potentially stores a duplicate copy of every web page that is on display on this site. All cache files are temporary, and are never accessed by any third party, except as necessary to obtain technical support from the cache plugin vendor. Cache files expire on a schedule set by the site administrator, but may easily be purged by the admin before their natural expiration, if necessary.
Ezoic And Bunny CDN Content Distribution Networks:
Similar to a cache, this site also utilizes CDNs in order to facilitate a faster response time and better user experience. CDNs potentially store a duplicate copy of every web page that is on display on this site. All CDN files are temporary, and are never accessed by any third party, except as necessary to obtain technical support from the CDN vendors. CDN files expire on a schedule set by the site administrator, but may easily be purged by the admin before their natural expiration, if necessary.
BunnyCDN’s privacy policy may be obtained from this page: BunnyCDN-Privacy.
As above Ezoic’s privacy policy may be obtained from this page: https://g.ezoic.net/privacy/healthtrekker.net.
Spam Detection & Security Services:
Akismet Spam Detection:
We collect information about visitors who comment on Sites that use our Akismet anti-spam service. The information we collect depends on how the User sets up Akismet for the Site, but typically includes the commenter’s IP address, user agent, referrer, and Site URL (along with other information directly provided by the commenter such as their name, username, email address, and the comment itself).
⧉ Who we share your data with:
Aggregate Information (non-personally identifiable):
We share aggregated demographic information about our user base with our partners and advertisers. These currently consist of Ezoic, Google AdSense and Google Analytics. This information does not identify individual users. The settings in Ezoic and Google AdSense have been placed at the highest available level of privacy for EU citizens.
Personally Identifiable Information:
We do not share, sell, or rent personally identifiable information with third parties. We reserve the right to disclose your personally identifiable information as required by law and when we believe that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights and/or to comply with a judicial proceeding, court order, or legal process.
⧉ How long we retain your data:
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained 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 (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 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.
