Who We Are
Our website address is: https://ncc.edu.ph

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 data shown in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help with spam detection.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to determine if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available at https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture may be visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media
If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images that include embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the website may download and extract location data from images posted on the site.

Cookies
If you leave a comment on our site, you may opt in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. These cookies are for your convenience so you do not have to re-enter your details when leaving another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

If you visit our login page, we set a temporary cookie to determine whether your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in, we set several cookies to save your login information and screen display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for one year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login persists for two weeks. If you log out, login cookies are removed.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie contains no personal data and simply indicates 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 (for example, videos, images, or articles). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the same way as if you visited the other website directly.

These third-party 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 if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Who We Share Your Data With
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.

We do not sell or trade your personal information.

How Long We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This allows us to automatically recognize and approve follow-up comments instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
