Privacy Policy

01 Who Are We?

SASOR© is the South African School of Robotics. Our website address is https://www.sasor.africa .

02 Comments

When visitors leave comments on the website, we collect the information shown in the comments form, together with the visitor’s IP address and browser user-agent string to assist with spam detection and website security.

An anonymised string created from your email address, also known as a hash, may be provided to the Gravatar service to determine whether you are using the service.

The Gravatar privacy policy can be viewed at Automattic Privacy Policy . After your comment has been approved, your profile picture may become publicly visible alongside your comment.

03 Media

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images that contain embedded location data (EXIF GPS).

Visitors to the website may be able to download images and extract location information contained within those images.

04 Cookies

If you leave a comment on our website, you may choose to save your name, email address and website in cookies. These cookies are provided for your convenience so that you do not need to re-enter your information when leaving another comment. These cookies may remain active for approximately one year.

When you visit our login page, a temporary cookie may be created to determine whether your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal information and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in, several cookies may be created to save your login information and screen display preferences. Login cookies generally remain active for two days, while screen preference cookies may remain active for approximately one year.

If you select “Remember Me”, your login may remain active for approximately two weeks. Logging out of your account will remove the relevant login cookies.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie may be stored in your browser. This cookie does not contain personal information and only identifies the post ID of the article that was edited. It generally expires after one day.

05 Embedded Content From Other Websites

Pages and articles on this website may contain embedded content such as videos, images, documents, articles or other third-party content.

Embedded content from other websites behaves in substantially the same manner as if you had visited that external website directly.

These third-party websites may collect information about you, use cookies, include additional third-party tracking and monitor your interaction with their content. This may include tracking your interaction if you have an account with that service and are logged into it.

06 Who We Share Your Data With

Your personal information will only be shared where reasonably necessary for the operation, administration, security or legal requirements of our website and services.

If you request a password reset, your IP address may be included in the password-reset email.

07 How Long We Retain Your Data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its associated metadata may be retained indefinitely. This allows us to recognise and approve legitimate follow-up comments automatically rather than placing each comment into a moderation queue.

For users who register on our website, where registration is available, we may also store the personal information supplied within their user profile.

Registered users may generally view, edit or delete their personal information at any time, except where certain information, such as a username, cannot be changed. Website administrators may also access and edit this information where necessary for administration purposes.

08 Your Rights Over Your Data

If you have an account on this website or have submitted comments or other personal information, you may request a copy of the personal information we hold about you, including information that you have provided to us.

You may also request that we correct or delete personal information that we hold about you, subject to any information that we are legally, administratively or operationally required to retain.

09 Where We Send Your Data

Visitor comments and website submissions may be checked using automated spam detection, security or website protection services.

10 Visitor Contributions

Visitors may not submit, upload, publish or otherwise add content to the website without the appropriate permission of the website administrator where such permission is required.
