First Ethiopian Tour and Travel
Who We Are
Welcome to First Ethiopian Tour and Travel. Our website address is: https://firstethiotours.com. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring that your personal information is handled responsibly. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, and safeguard your data when you interact with our website.
Comments
When visitors leave comments on our website, we collect the information provided in the comments form, including your name, email address, and the content of your comment. Additionally, we capture your IP address and browser user agent string to assist with spam detection.
An anonymized string (hash) generated from your email address may be shared with the Gravatar service to check if you use their platform. Gravatar’s Privacy Policy is available at https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture (if linked to Gravatar) will be publicly visible alongside your comment.
Media
If you upload images to our website, we recommend avoiding files that contain embedded location data (e.g., EXIF GPS). Visitors can download images from the site and may extract any embedded location information. To protect your privacy, please ensure such data is removed before uploading media.
Cookies
We use cookies to enhance your experience on our website. If you leave a comment, you may opt in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies for convenience. These cookies persist for one year, sparing you from re-entering your details for future comments.
When you visit our login page, a temporary cookie is set to determine whether your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is deleted when you close your browser.
Upon logging in, we set additional cookies to store your login details and screen display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, while screen options cookies remain active for one year. Selecting “Remember Me” extends your login session to two weeks. Logging out removes these cookies.
If you edit or publish an article, a cookie will be saved in your browser indicating the post ID of the edited article. This cookie contains no personal data and expires after one day.
Embedded content from other websites
Our site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, or articles) from external websites. This content functions as if you had visited the third-party site directly. These external websites may collect data about you, utilize cookies, implement third-party tracking, and monitor your interactions with the embedded content—particularly if you are logged into an account on their platform. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these third-party sites.
Who we share your data with
We do not share your personal data with third parties except as outlined in this policy. If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email for security purposes.
How long we retain your data
Comments and their associated metadata (e.g., name, email, IP address) are retained indefinitely to facilitate the automatic approval of follow-up comments without moderation delays.
For registered users, we store the personal information provided in your user profile. You may view, edit, or delete this information at any time (though usernames cannot be changed). Website administrators also have access to view and edit this data as necessary.
What rights you have over your data
If you have an account on our site or have left comments, you may request an exported file containing the personal data we hold about you, including any information you’ve provided. You may also request the deletion of your personal data. These rights do not extend to data we must retain for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where your data is sent
Visitor comments may be processed by an automated spam detection service to ensure the integrity of our platform. This service may analyze your data in accordance with its own privacy practices.
