Privacy Policy:

Girl Who Cant Smell LLC (“Girl Who Cant Smell“) operates girlwhocantsmell.com and may operate other websites. It is Girl Who Cant Smell’s policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our websites.

Website Visitors

Like most website operators, Girl Who Cant Smell collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. Girl Who Cant Smell’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Girl Who Cant Smell’s visitors use its website. From time to time, Girl Who Cant Smell may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

Girl Who Cant Smell also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on girlwhocantsmell.com blogs/sites. Girl Who Cant Smell only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below, except that commenter IP addresses and email addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators of the blog/site where the comment was left.

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.

Certain visitors to Girl Who Cant Smell’s websites choose to interact with Girl Who Cant Smell in ways that require Girl Who Cant Smell to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Girl Who Cant Smell gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up at girlwhocantsmell.comto provide a username and email address. Those who engage in transactions with Girl Who Cant Smell are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, Girl Who Cant Smell collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with Girl Who Cant Smell. Girl Who Cant Smell does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.
