Cannatek is committed to protecting the privacy of visitors, partners, and users of our website. This Privacy Policy explains what personal data we collect, how we use it, and the rights you have regarding your information.

1. 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, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help detect and prevent spam.

An anonymized string created from your email address (hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to verify whether you are using it. The Gravatar privacy policy is available at: https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture may be publicly visible in the context of your comment.

Media

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images that contain embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the website may be able to download and extract location data from images posted on the site.

Contact Forms

When you submit information through our contact forms, we collect the data you provide (such as name, email, company, and message) solely to respond to your inquiry, provide commercial information, or establish business communications.

We do not sell or rent your personal information to third parties.

2. Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site, you may opt in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. These cookies are for your convenience and allow you to avoid re-entering your details when leaving another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

If you have an account and log in to this site, we will set a temporary cookie to determine whether 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 several cookies to save your login information and screen display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, and screen option cookies last for one year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. Logging out will remove the login cookies.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie contains no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you edited. It expires after one day.

3. Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (for example videos, images, or articles). Embedded content from other websites behaves exactly as if the visitor had visited the external website directly.

These third-party websites may collect data about you, use cookies, implement additional tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, especially if you have an account and are logged in to those websites.

Cannatek is not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party sites.

4. Analytics

We may use analytics tools to understand how visitors interact with our website, improve user experience, and optimize our services. These tools may collect anonymized usage data such as pages visited, time on site, and general geographic location.

5. How Long We Retain Your Data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This allows us to recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically.

For users who register on our website (if applicable), we store the personal information provided in their user profile. Users may view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except the username). Website administrators can also access and edit that information.

6. What Rights You Have Over Your Data

If you have an account on this site or have left comments, you may request:

• An exported file of the personal data we hold about you
• Correction of inaccurate information
• Deletion of your personal data

This does not include any data we are required to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

To exercise your rights, please contact us through our official communication channels.

7. Where Your Data Is Sent

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.

8. Policy Updates

Cannatek may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect operational, legal, or regulatory changes. Updates will be posted on this page with the corresponding revision date.
