User generated content. The FoodChat platform exists in part to facilitate information shared between you and other parties or individuals. Any content you share, post, or edit, will be visible to other users in your FoodChat Group as well as Group moderators and website Administrators. Any personal information you share via this platform’s various features (Private Messages, forum posts, document and media uploads, profile timeline) will be stored on our web server.
If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Users of the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.
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 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 a forum post, profile comment, or send a private message, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the content you just edited or created. It expires after 1 day.
Cookies may also be saved in your browser by third party software plugins used on Food Chat, which will be listed below.
User generated content on this site may include embedded media (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 tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
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 for your profile image. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/.
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
FoodChat utilizes a third party multilingual WordPress plugin (WPML) to offer content in both English and French. WPML uses cookies to identify the visitor’s current language, the last visited language and the language of users who have logged in.
While you use the plugin, WPML will share data regarding the site through Installer. No data from the user itself will be shared.
FoodChat 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. We may use QUIC.cloud services to process & cache your data temporarily. Please see https://quic.cloud/privacy-policy/ for more details.
If you publish a forum post, profile comment, or send a private message, the content and its metadata may be retained indefinitely.
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.
If you have an account on this site, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us, by going to Account Settings and clicking on Export Data. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
You may opt-out of email correspondence at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link in emails you may receive from FoodChat. You can control how often, if at all, you receive email updates of Group activity by going to your Group(s) and clicking Email Settings. However, you cannot opt-out of core website emails. Such emails include account creation confirmation, password reset, and email verification.
