After your comment is approved, your profile picture (if connected to Gravatar) is visible to the public alongside your comment.

4. Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles or pages on our site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, or articles).
Embedded content from external websites behaves as if you visited that site directly.

These websites may collect data, use cookies, and track your interactions, especially if you are logged into an account on their platform.
Kevy does not control or take responsibility for the data practices of third-party sites.

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information.

We may share limited data only when necessary:

  • Password Resets: Your IP address may be included in password reset emails.
  • Service Providers: Trusted third-party vendors (e.g., hosting, analytics, and payment processors) who help us operate our business, bound by strict confidentiality agreements.

All data handling complies with PIPEDA requirements for safeguarding and limiting use of personal information.

6. How Long We Retain Your Data

  • Comments: Retained indefinitely to recognize and approve future comments automatically.
  • User Accounts: If you register, your personal information is stored in your profile until you delete it or request removal.
    • You may view, edit, or delete your information (except your username).

We use industry-standard security measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, or disclosure.
This includes encryption, secure servers, limited access, and ongoing monitoring of website security.

However, no online system is completely secure. You share information with us at your own risk.

9. Where Your Data Is Sent or Stored

Your data may be stored or processed in Canada or by third-party providers located in other jurisdictions.
