How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

What rights you have over your data

You can request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where we send your data

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

Legal Disclaimer

Runswellwithscissors.com is a lifestyle blog. All content is my opinion and shared in good faith. It’s purely to document the adventures and perils of being a workaholic single mom that doesn’t know when to quit. My opinion is not the opinion of any organization or institution that I may be affiliated with. Considering the blog is based on my own personal experiences, information shared is true and accurate to the best of my ability. However, I am human so mistakes and omissions will occur. (Hopefully not often.) The advice and information provided by Runswellwithscissors.com is for entertainment purposes only. I am not a doctor, therapist, lawyer, dietician, personal trainer, etc. Nor am I Martha Stewart. Most days I’m barely functioning so please do not take my advice as gospel. It is not guaranteed to work for anyone else. (It likely worked for me by sheer luck!)  While I do have a Master’s degree in Folk Studies and Historic Preservation and have worked in higher ed for what seems a thousand years, any posts dealing with these areas are purely informational and not meant to invoke a professional/client relationship. I have the right to change, edit and update the content on this blog at any time.

Runswellwithscissors.com contains paid advertising and affiliate links. I’m not a sell-out and would never share or endorse a product if I didn’t actually like or use it. If a post is sponsored, I will let you know up front. These links do help pay the bills so your support is appreciated. Links to any third-party sites are also informational.
