All web servers track basic information about their visitors. This information includes, but is not limited to, IP addresses, browser details, timestamps and referring pages.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments formand 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: Automattic Privacy Policy. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Contact Forms

When you submit information through a contact form, we may keep contact form submissions for a certain period for customer service purposes, but we do not use the information submitted through them for marketing purposes.

Where necessary, The Pet Bodega uses cookies to store information about a visitor’s preferences and history in order to better serve the visitor and/or present the visitor with customized content.
