Privacy Policy
Effective Date: August 4, 2025
Last Updated: August 4, 2025
At Adwise Co., we care about your privacy and are committed to protecting any personal information you share with us. This Privacy Policy outlines what data we collect, how we use it, and your rights as a visitor or user of our website:
https://adwise.org
Who We Are
We are Adwise Co., a marketing agency based in the U.S., focused on helping Polish-American and other immigrant-owned businesses grow through digital marketing, media partnerships, SEO, and web development.
Our website address is: https://adwise.org
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 to help detect spam.
An anonymized string created from your email (a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service. You can find their privacy policy here: https://automattic.com/privacy. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture may appear publicly next to it.
Media Uploads
If you upload images to our site, please avoid including embedded location data (EXIF GPS), as visitors can potentially download and extract that data.
Cookies
-
If you leave a comment, you may opt to save your name, email, and website in cookies — so you don’t have to re-type them next time. These cookies last for one year.
-
Visiting our login page sets a temporary cookie to check if your browser accepts cookies — this cookie has no personal data and is deleted when you close your browser.
-
When you log in, we’ll set up cookies to save login info and screen display preferences. Login cookies last for 2 days. If you select “Remember Me,” your login stays for 2 weeks. Logging out removes these cookies.
-
Editing or publishing an article may store another cookie in your browser — this simply includes the post ID and expires after 1 day.
Embedded Content from Other Websites
Pages on this site may include embedded content (e.g., YouTube videos, Instagram posts, etc.). Embedded content behaves the same as if you visited the source site directly. Those websites may collect data, use cookies, and track your interactions — especially if you’re logged into their platform.
Who We Share Your Data With
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
How Long We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely so we can automatically approve follow-ups.
If you register on our site (if available), we also store any personal info you provide in your user profile. You can view, edit, or delete your info anytime (except username changes). Site admins can also access and edit this data.
Your Rights Over Your Data
If you have an account on this site or have left comments, you can request an export of your personal data. You may also request that we delete any personal data we hold about you — excluding data we must retain for administrative, legal, or security reasons.
To request data removal, please email us at info@adwise.org.
Where Your Data Is Sent
Visitor comments may be scanned by an automated spam detection service.
