Effective Date: March 10, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how information may be collected, used, and protected when visiting https://thatscurtains.co.uk.
Who We Are
This website operates under the domain name https://thatscurtains.co.uk. The site provides reviews, comparisons, and informational guides related to curtains, blinds, and window dressings available in the UK.
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the website, the data entered into the comment form may be collected, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string. This information helps with spam detection and maintaining the integrity of the website.
An anonymised string created from an email address, also known as a hash, may be sent to the Gravatar service to check whether it is being used. The Gravatar Privacy Policy can be viewed at https://automattic.com/privacy. Once a comment is approved, a profile image may be visible publicly alongside the comment.
Media
If images are uploaded to the website, it is recommended not to upload images that contain embedded location data such as EXIF GPS information. Visitors to the website may be able to download and extract location data from images hosted on the site.
Cookies
If a comment is left on the website, there may be an option to save the name, email address, and website in cookies. These cookies are for convenience and allow details to be remembered for future comments. They typically remain active for one year.
When visiting the login page, a temporary cookie may be created to determine whether the browser accepts cookies. This cookie does not contain personal data and is removed when the browser is closed.
When logging in, several cookies may be set to store login information and screen display preferences. Login cookies usually last for two days, while screen option cookies may last for one year. If the “Remember Me” option is selected, the login may remain active for two weeks. Logging out removes the login cookies.
If an article is edited or published, an additional cookie may be stored in the browser. This cookie does not contain personal data and only stores the post ID of the edited article. It typically expires after one day.
Embedded Content from Other Websites
Articles on this website may include embedded content such as videos, images, or articles. Embedded content from external websites behaves in the same way as if the visitor had directly visited the external site.
These third party websites may collect data about visitors, use cookies, include additional tracking, and monitor interaction with their embedded content. This may occur especially if a user has an account and is logged in to that external website.
Who We Share Your Data With
If a password reset is requested, the IP address may be included in the reset email for verification and security purposes.
How Long Your Data Is Retained
If a comment is left on the website, the comment and its associated metadata may be stored indefinitely. This allows follow up comments to be recognised and approved automatically rather than being held for moderation.
For registered users, if any exist, the personal information provided during registration is stored in the user profile. Users can view, edit, or delete their personal data at any time, except for the username. Website administrators may also access and modify that information when necessary.
What Rights You Have Over Your Data
If an account exists on this website or comments have been left, it is possible to request an exported file containing the personal data stored about the user, including any information that has been provided.
A request may also be made to erase this personal data. This does not include information that must be retained for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where Your Data Is Sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service to help maintain the safety and integrity of the website.
