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. We have absolutely no control over any cookies, information, or otherwise gathered from any embedded website content.
Who we share your data with
Unless otherwise noted, DV Farm, Inc. does not share your data with anyone. If we need to provide any law enforcement agency with information, we will do so under a search warrant. The only other reasons we would share data is if there is a need for emergency contact, legal, or security purposes.
How long we retain your data
If you send an email via our “Contact Us” page, the email and its metadata may be retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up emails automatically and in the case of needing to review an email at a later date. Most emails are deleted within one year (365 days) from our email providers’ servers.
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. (In the future, this may pertain to a “Blog” on DV Farm, Inc.’s website.)
What rights you have over your data
If you have sent an email on this site (using our form found on our “Contact Us” page), 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.
