Privacy Policy

 

General Philosophy

 

Poemetria is a site designed to achieve one main mission: allowing the poet to display his work to the public, primarily poems, but also essays, and potentially other artistic materials. The site does not sell anything, and there are no memberships. Data collection of visitors, therefore, is kept to a minimum. And the only individual/personal info collected would be your email address, if you elect to contact this site.

 

Cookies

 

This site may use some essential cookies. If you are unfamiliar with cookies, you may get information at http://www.allaboutcookies.org/.

 

The cookies used by this site are used for three reasons: ensuring basic functions, security, and basic (but non-personal) tracking (of things like which pages are visited, time spent, etc.)

 

You may also manage how cookies are used by accessing the cookie settings in your particular browser.

 

The following links explain how to access cookie settings in some commonly used browsers:

You may also opt out of all non-essential cookies using the Cookie Consent Banner that comes up upon entering the site.

This site has some basic analytics tracking through Wix Analytics. Opting out of the non-essential cookies in the Cookie Consent Banner will disable that tracking.

 

 

What Data is Collected

 

If a visitor emails the site using the in-site form (on Contact page), that email, including email address, will be retained (unless a request is received to delete that). In addition, the site collects the Internet protocol (IP) address used to connect your computer to the Internet. Software tools may be used to measure and collect session information, including page response times, length of visits to certain pages, page interaction information, and methods used to browse away from the page.

 

 

Why Is Data Collected

 

We collect such Non-personal and Personal Information for the following purposes:

 

To provide and operate the Services;

To comply with any applicable laws and regulations.

 

 

Hosting and Data Storage

 

This site is hosted on the Wix.com platform. Wix.com provides us with the online platform that allows us build our website and make our work available to visitors. Your data may be stored through Wix.com’s data storage, databases and the general Wix.com applications. They store your data on secure servers behind a firewall.

 

Use and Sharing Data

 

Aside from data stored by Wix to allow the site to function, data or visitor information is not shared or sold. If a visitor emails the site using the in-site form (on Contact page), that email address will be used to respond to the email, but that email address is not sold or shared with any other parties.

We reserve the right to modify this privacy policy at any time, so please review it frequently. Changes and clarifications will take effect immediately upon their posting on the website. If we make material changes to this policy, we will notify you here that it has been updated, so that you are aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we use and/or disclose it.
