Who We Are
Our website address is: https://almashariqseashipping.com. This privacy policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you visit our website.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the information shown in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help with spam detection.

If you use the Gravatar service, an anonymized string (also called a hash) created from your email address may be shared with Gravatar to check if you are using the service. You can find the Gravatar privacy policy here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After your comment is approved, your profile picture will be visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media

If you upload images to our website, avoid including embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the website can download and extract location data from uploaded images.

Cookies

We use cookies to improve your experience on our website. Here’s how we use them:

1. Comments:
   If you leave a comment, you can choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. This makes it easier for you to leave comments in the future. These cookies last for one year.

2. Login Cookies:

   • When you log in, we set cookies to save your login details and screen preferences. Login cookies last for two days, while screen options cookies last for one year.
   • Selecting “Remember Me” keeps you logged in for two weeks. Logging out will remove the login cookies.

3. Temporary Cookies:
   When you visit the login page, we set a temporary cookie to check if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

4. Editor Cookies:
   If you edit or publish content, a cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie contains no personal data and simply tracks the post ID of the article you edited. It expires after one day.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles). Embedded content from other websites behaves exactly as if you visited that external website.

These external websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with their content. This includes tracking your interactions if you have an account and are logged in to their site.

Who We Share Your Data With

• If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
• Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.

We do not sell your data to third parties.

How Long We Retain Your Data

• Comments: When you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This helps us recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
• Registered Users: For users who register on our site (if applicable), we store the personal information they provide in their profile. Registered users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except for their username). Website administrators can also view and edit this information.

Your Rights Over Your Data

If you have an account on our 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 provided to us.
• Have us erase any personal data we hold about you.

These rights do not apply to data we are required to retain for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where Your Data Is Sent
