Privacy Policy

Effective Date: 05/10/2025

Welcome to Funktional Spaces (“we”, “us”, or “our”). Your privacy is important to us, and this policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you visit our website, www.SkillOMaticSA.com.

1. Who We Are

Our website address is: https://SkillOMaticSA.com

2. Comments

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

An anonymized string (also called a hash) created from your email address may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. You can review their privacy policy here: https://automattic.com/privacy. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture is publicly visible in the context of your comment.

3. Media

If you upload images to the website, we recommend avoiding images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the site can download and extract location data from any images posted.

4. Cookies

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

If you visit our login page, a temporary cookie will determine if your browser accepts cookies. It contains no personal data and is discarded when your browser is closed.

Upon logging in, several cookies are set to save your login details and screen display preferences:

Login cookies: Last for two days.
“Remember Me” login: Persists for two weeks.
Screen options cookies: Last for one year.
Logging out removes the login cookies.

If you edit or publish content, an additional cookie is stored in your browser, indicating the post ID of the article you just edited. This cookie contains no personal data and expires after one day.

5. Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles). Embedded content behaves just as if you visited the originating site directly.

These third-party sites may collect data, use cookies, embed third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with their content—especially if you have an account and are logged into that site.

6. Who We Share Your Data With

If you request a password reset, your IP address may be included in the reset email for verification and security purposes.

7. How Long We Retain Your Data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This allows us to recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them for moderation.

For users that register (if applicable), we store the personal information provided in their user profile. All users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (username changes are not permitted). Website administrators can also view and modify that information.

8. Your Data Rights

If you have an account or have left comments on the site, you may request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you—including any data you’ve provided. You may also request the deletion of your personal data. This does not include data we are required to retain for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

9. Where Your Data Is Sent

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.

10. Questions?
