1. Who We Are

We are Bm-Still 021, and our website address is https://www.bmstill021.com. We are committed to protecting your privacy and personal data in accordance with applicable laws.

2. What Personal Data We Collect and Why

Comments

When you leave a comment on the site, we collect the data shown in the comment form, along with your IP address and browser user agent string to help detect spam.

If you use Gravatar, an anonymized string (hash) of your email may be sent to their service. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available at: https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once approved, your profile picture may appear publicly next to your comment.

Media

If you upload images to the website, avoid including embedded location data (EXIF GPS), as visitors may extract this information from the images.

Contact Forms

When you submit a message via our contact form, we collect the data you provide (e.g., name, email address, message content). This data is used solely to respond to your inquiry and is not used for marketing purposes unless explicitly stated.

We may retain form submissions for customer service purposes but do not use the information for marketing unless you opt in.

Cookies

  • If you leave a comment, you may opt to save your name, email, and website in cookies for convenience. These cookies last for one year.
  • A temporary cookie is set on the login page to check if your browser accepts cookies—it is discarded upon closing the browser.
  • Login cookies last for two days, or two weeks if “Remember Me” is selected. Screen preference cookies last one year. Logging out removes these cookies.
  • When editing or publishing an article, a cookie stores the post ID; it expires after one day and contains no personal data.

Embedded Content from Other Sites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles). Such content behaves as if you visited the originating website. These sites may collect data, use cookies, and monitor your interaction with their content.
