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.

Uploaded Data: When you upload documents or data, it is solely used to perform analysis and generate summaries. Thematic Lens does not use uploaded data for training, development, or improvement of our algorithms.

Automatically Collected Data: To enhance our service, we may collect certain technical information, such as IP addresses, browser types, and operating systems. This information is used only for diagnostic and analytic purposes and to improve user experience.

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.

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

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. You may request deletion of your data at any time by contacting us.

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.

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.

You retain ownership of copyrighted material uploaded to Thematic Lens.

We do not share, sell, or lease your data to any third parties. In limited cases, Thematic Lens may work with trusted service providers who assist in operating the service. All such providers are bound by strict confidentiality agreements and are only permitted to use your data to provide the agreed-upon services.

Where your data is sent

File text data is sent to OpenAI via secure API for summarization. This data is explicitly not used for OpenAI training data.

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

Thematic Lens uses industry-standard security measures to protect your data. This includes encryption, secure storage protocols, and regular security reviews. However, please note that no system is entirely immune to risks.

Thematic Lens may update this Privacy Policy periodically. We will notify you of any significant changes via email or through our website. Your continued use of the service after such changes signifies your acceptance of the updated policy.
