Who We Are

Our website address is: https://belladevelopments.ca.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect the information submitted in the comment form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help detect and prevent spam.

An anonymized string (also known as a hash) created from your email address may be shared with the Gravatar service to check if you’re using it. You can review their privacy policy here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture—if connected to Gravatar—will be visible to the public alongside your comment.

Media

If you upload images to our website, we recommend removing any embedded location data (EXIF GPS) before uploading. Visitors to the site may be able to download and extract location information from images that contain such data.

Cookies

If you leave a comment, you may choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. This is for your convenience, so you don’t need to re-enter your details when leaving future comments. These cookies will remain for one year.

When you visit our login page, a temporary cookie will be set to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

If you log in, several cookies will be set to save your login information and display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, while screen option cookies remain 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 identifies the post ID of the content you just edited. It expires after one day.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Our site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, or articles). Embedded content from other websites behaves just as if you had visited those sites directly.

These external sites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that content—especially if you have an account and are logged into their platform.

Who We Share Your Data With

If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email for verification and security purposes.

How Long We Retain Your Data

If you leave a comment, it and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This allows us to automatically approve follow-up comments rather than hold them in moderation.

For users who register on our site (if applicable), we store the personal information provided in their user profiles. All users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except usernames). Site administrators can also access and edit that information.

Your Rights Over Your Data

If you have an account on our site or have left comments, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you. You may also request that we erase any personal data we hold. This excludes any data we are required to keep for legal, administrative, or security purposes.

Where Your Data Is Sent

Visitor comments may be reviewed through an automated spam detection service to ensure the safety and integrity of our site.
