Applicable Regulations
This Privacy Policy is governed by:
- Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (General Data Protection Regulation – GDPR)
- Organic Law 3/2018 on the Protection of Personal Data and Guarantee of Digital Rights (LOPDGDD)
What Personal Data We Collect and Why
When visitors leave comments on this website, we collect the information provided in the comment form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string. This data is processed solely for the purpose of detecting spam and protecting the security of the website, based on our legitimate interest in maintaining a safe and functional platform.
An anonymized string (hash) generated from the email address provided in the comment may be shared with the Gravatar service to verify whether the user has an associated profile. The Gravatar service is operated by Automattic, and its privacy policy can be consulted at https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once a comment is approved, the user’s profile picture, if available, may be publicly displayed alongside the comment.
If users upload images to the website, they are advised not to include embedded location data (EXIF GPS), as visitors to the site may be able to download and extract such information from published images. The processing of personal data associated with uploaded media is based on the user’s consent.
This website uses cookies to ensure its proper functioning and to improve the user experience. Detailed information about the types of cookies used, their purposes, and how users can manage or disable them is available in the Cookie Policy. Except for strictly necessary technical cookies, all cookies are used only after obtaining the user’s consent.
In cases where user registration is available, we store the personal information provided in the user profile for the purpose of managing user accounts and enabling website functionality. This processing is based on the execution of a contract or the application of pre-contractual measures. Registered users may access, modify, or delete their personal data at any time, except for their username. Website administrators may also access and edit this information when necessary for administrative purposes.
Embedded content from other websites
Articles on this website may include embedded content from third-party websites, such as videos, images, or articles. Embedded content behaves in the same manner as if the user had visited the third-party website directly. These external websites may collect data about the user, use cookies, embed additional tracking mechanisms, and monitor interactions with the embedded content, particularly if the user has an account with the third-party service and is logged in at the time of access.
Data Sharing
We do not sell or share personal data with third parties for marketing or commercial purposes. Personal data may only be disclosed when strictly necessary for technical or security reasons. For example, if a user requests a password reset, the IP address used to make the request will be included in the reset email as a security measure.
International Data Transfers
Some of the services used on this website, such as Gravatar or certain embedded content providers, may involve the transfer of personal data to countries outside the European Union. In such cases, these transfers are carried out in accordance with applicable data protection legislation and are subject to appropriate safeguards, including the use of Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission.
Data Retention Period
Comments and their associated metadata are retained indefinitely unless the user requests their deletion. Personal data linked to user accounts is retained for as long as the account remains active. Technical and security-related data is kept only for the period necessary to fulfill its intended purpose. In certain cases, data may be retained for longer periods when required to comply with legal or regulatory obligations.
Your Data Protection Rights
Users have the right to access their personal data, request the rectification of inaccurate information, request the erasure of their data, restrict or object to its processing, and request data portability. Where processing is based on consent, users may withdraw that consent at any time.
To exercise these rights, users may contact us at info@maniwakisound.com. If a user considers that their data protection rights have been infringed, they may lodge a complaint with the Spanish Data Protection Authority (Agencia Española de Protección de Datos – AEPD) via its website at https://www.aepd.es.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We reserve the right to update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in legal or regulatory requirements or in our data processing practices. Any modifications will be published on this page.
