Who We Are
Voice Unearthed (“we,” “our,” or “us”) is an informational website dedicated to sharing resources and perspectives for parents, educators, and professionals who support children who stutter.
Our website address is: https://voiceunearthed.com
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comment form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help detect spam.
An anonymized string created from your email address (called a hash) may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you use it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile image (if provided via Gravatar) may appear publicly alongside your comment.
Media
If you upload images to the website (for example, when adding content or commenting), please avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the site can download and extract location data from images that include this information.
Cookies
If you leave a comment on our site, you may choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. This is for your convenience so you don’t have to re-enter your details next time you comment. These cookies last for one year.
If you visit our login page, a temporary cookie may be set 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, several cookies are used to save your login information and screen display preferences. Login cookies last for two days; screen options cookies last for one year. Selecting “Remember Me” keeps your login active for two weeks. Logging out removes these cookies.
If you edit or publish content, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the content you edited. It expires after one day.
Embedded Content from Other Websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (such as videos, images, or social media posts). Embedded content from other websites behaves the same way as if you had visited the other website directly.
These external sites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with their content — especially if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party sites linked or embedded on Voice Unearthed.
Who We Share Your Data With
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
Otherwise, we do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with any third parties.
How Long We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely so we can recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them for moderation.
For users who register on the site (if applicable), we store the personal information provided in their profile. Users can view, edit, or delete their information at any time (except usernames). Site administrators can also view and edit that information as needed for maintenance or moderation.
What Rights You Have Over Your Data
If you have an account on this 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 about you.
This does not include data we are required to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
To make a data request, please reach out through our Contact page.
Where Your Data Is Sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service, such as Akismet.
Analytics
We use Google Analytics (via MonsterInsights) to help us understand how visitors use our website and improve user experience. Google Analytics may collect anonymized information such as your device type, browser, and pages visited. This information does not personally identify you.
Google Analytics stores cookies on your device to remember your preferences and track aggregated site usage. You can learn more about how Google handles data at Google’s Privacy Policy.
Email Communications (Brevo / Sendinblue)
If you sign up for email updates, your name and email address will be securely stored through our email provider, Brevo (formerly Sendinblue). We use this information solely to send occasional updates and newsletters related to Voice Unearthed.
You can unsubscribe at any time by clicking the “unsubscribe” link at the bottom of any email, or by contacting us through our Contact page.
