Introduction
The UX Workshop (TUXW), located at https://www.theuxworkshop.com, respects the privacy of our members and is dedicated to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy details our practices regarding the collection, use, protection, and disclosure of your information across our platform.
Information Collection
Personal Identification Information: We collect personal data such as your name, email address, and professional background when you register, enabling us to tailor your experience and provide platform services.
Non-Personal Identification Information: We gather non-personal data on platform access and usage, including browser type and technical information like the operating system and Internet service providers.
Comments: When you leave comments, we collect the data shown in the comments form, your IP address, and browser user agent string for spam detection. An anonymized string (hash) from your email may be used by the Gravatar service, visible publicly after your comment’s approval.
Media: Uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) is discouraged as visitors can extract this data.
Use of Cookies
TUXW utilizes “cookies” for enhancing user experience. You may opt-in to save your details in cookies when commenting, which lasts for one year. Temporary cookies determine browser cookie acceptance, with no personal data collected. Logging in sets cookies for your login information and display choices, with specifics on duration and removal outlined for various scenarios.
Embedded Content
Articles may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles). This content behaves as if you’ve visited the originating website, which may collect data on you, use cookies, and monitor your interaction, especially if logged in.
Data Sharing and Retention
We do not sell your personal identification information. Generic aggregated information may be shared with partners and advertisers. Data from comments and user profiles are retained indefinitely for recognition and follow-up actions. Users can manage their personal information, but cannot alter their username. Administrators can view and edit this information.
Your Rights Over Your Data
You have the right to request an export of your personal data held by us and request the erasure of your personal data, excluding data retained for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Data Protection
Visitor comments may be screened by an automated spam detection service. We are committed to employing appropriate measures for data protection against unauthorized access or data breaches.

TUXW reserves the right to modify this Privacy Policy. Users are encouraged to review this page periodically. Your continued use signifies acceptance of any changes.
