This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you visit our website located at https://ladiesfirstdrivingschool.co.uk.

When visitors leave comments on our website, we collect the following data:
The data provided in the comments form.

3. Media
If you upload images to our website, please ensure that you do not include embedded location data (EXIF GPS) in these images. Other visitors to the website can potentially download and extract any location data from images on the website.
4. Cookies
When 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, so you do not have to fill in your details again when leaving another comment. These cookies will last for one year.
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 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.
5. Embedded Content from Other Websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles) that behave in the same way as if you visited the other website. These embedded content sources may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the content. This tracking also applies if you have an account and are logged in to that external website.
6. Who We Share Your Data With
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
7. How Long We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is to facilitate the automatic recognition and approval of follow-up comments instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users who register on our website (if any), we store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time, except for the username, which cannot be changed. Website administrators also have access to view and edit this information.
8. What Rights You Have Over Your Data
If you have an account on our site or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file containing the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you, subject to any obligations we may have for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
9. Where Your Data Is Sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
