About this site
Opere Varie is a WordPress publication available at https://operevarie.com. Comments may be open on articles, but reader registration is not available. We do not run ads, affiliate programs, analytics tools, or an online store.
What comes to us and how
We receive personal information in a few straightforward ways:
- Comments you submit: If you leave a comment, WordPress asks for your name, email address, and (optionally) a website URL. The text of your comment is stored. WordPress also records your IP address and browser user agent to help detect spam and manage abuse.
- Email you send: If you write to us at one of our published addresses, we will receive the contents of your message and the standard headers supplied by your email service (such as sender, time sent, and routing information).
- Server and CDN logs: Our hosting environment and content delivery layer keep logs so the site can be delivered reliably and securely. These logs typically include your IP address, the pages requested, time of request, the referrer (if provided by your browser), and your browser user agent.
How we use this information
We use the information we collect to publish and moderate comments, respond to correspondence, keep the site secure, diagnose errors, and prevent spam and abuse. We do not sell personal information and we do not profile visitors.
Cookies and local storage
Opere Varie uses only the cookies needed for basic site functions:
- Commenter convenience: If you choose to save your name, email, and website while commenting, WordPress sets cookies in your browser so you do not have to re-enter those details next time.
- Administrator sessions: WordPress sets session and security cookies for logged-in site administrators. Readers who are not administrators do not receive these cookies.
- Delivery and performance: Our hosting/CDN may set technical cookies or use equivalent storage to route traffic, balance load, and serve cached content. These do not track you across other sites.
Who can see your information
Access is limited to the people and services needed to run this site:
- Site administrators can view comment submissions, related metadata (such as IP address and user agent), and emails sent to our published addresses.
- Our hosting and content delivery providers process network traffic and logs as part of providing infrastructure. They act on our instructions to host and deliver the site.
- If you email us, your message travels through email services on both the sending and receiving sides.
How long we keep it
• Comments and their metadata are kept for the life of the article unless we remove them to manage space, relevance, or legal obligations. You can ask us to delete your comment.
• Emails are kept as long as needed to handle your request and maintain a record of our correspondence, then archived or deleted.
• Server and CDN logs are retained for a limited period for security and operational purposes and may be kept longer when investigating incidents.
Your choices and rights
You can:
- Ask for a copy of the personal information we hold about you.
- Request correction or deletion of your information, including comments you have posted.
- Object to or restrict certain processing, where applicable.
- Lodge a complaint with a data protection or consumer privacy authority in your place of residence. We would appreciate the chance to address your concerns first; please contact us using the details below.
