Privacy Policy

Who we are

At Executive Leadership Magazine, we value your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal information.

Executive Leadership Magazine ( “we”, “us”, or “our”) takes your privacy seriously. This Privacy tells you what info we gather about you when you hop on our website (https://www.executiveleadership.africa) (the “Website”) and how we use it.

What We Collect

We scoop up a few types of info from folks like you who browse our Website:

Stuff You Share: We snag things like your name, email, and comments you toss our way.
Automatic Deets: When you pop by the Website, we grab things like your IP address and what browser you’re using.
Cookies & Trackers: We might use cookies to get the lowdown on what you’re up to on the Website. This helps us give you a rad experience, see how many peeps are checking us out, and make our services better.

How We Roll with Your Info

We use the dirt we collect to:

Keep the Website running smoothly.
Shoot your cool newsletters or promos.
Answer your comments and Qs.
Check out how folks are moving around the site.
Level up our services and content.
Play by the rules and regulations.

Sharing

We might share your info with third-party peeps who help us run the Website and keep it awesome. They gotta keep their deets safe and only use them for what we said was cool.

We won’t spill the beans to advertisers or marketing buddies without your say-so.

Your Call

If you’re over getting fun emails from us, just hit unsubscribe in those emails to stop ’em coming through.

You can also tweak your cookie settings in your browser. But heads up – turning off cookies might put a damper on some of the Website’s features.

Locking Down Data

We do our best to keep snoops away from your info. But no site or internet flow is ironclad against sneaky hack attempts.

For the Kids

Our site isn’t meant for young people under 13 years old. We don’t aim to scoop up personal info from kiddos under 13. If you’re a mom or dad worried about what Junior shared with us, get in touch – we’ll wipe that data clean from our systems!

What’s New?

This Privacy Policy may switch up now and then. Keep an eye out for updates by peeping the new Privacy Policy on our site!

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave 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.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

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

Who we share your data with

If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.

How long we retain your data

Suggested text: If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of 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. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where your data is sent

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