Privacy Policy

Who we are

The main goal of this site is not only to gather information about citations related to 3DCP publications. Given the open access scope of this database, all researchers working with 3DCP are welcome to request a new entry about their publications to the database.

Our website address is: http://3dconcreteprinting.info/.

What personal data we collect and why we collect it

Comments

At this time, no comment on the site will be allowed. However, if comments are eventually allowed, we collect the data shown in the comments form when visitors leave comments on the site, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media

If comments eventually are allowed and visitors upload images to the website, they should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

Contact and Submit Your Contribution forms

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

Regarding the citations entries submitted through the “Submit your Contribution” form, we only keep for an indefinite time the information related to the publication citation, i.e. any additional information – other than the citation itself – submitted via the “Submit your Contribution” form will be deleted after we evaluate the contents of the request in our system.

If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after 1 day.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Analytics

Who we share your data with

At this time, no plans exist to share data from this site expecting visible links to external articles. The only information that becomes available to the public will be the citation to the publications that were requested to be included in the database via the “Submit Your Contribution” form.

How long we retain your data

If comments are eventually allowed and 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

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also 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.

Your contact information

If a request is may to include content into this site, a record of the request’s name and general contact information will be retained.

Additional information

How we protect your data

At this time, no comments will be allowed, nor any other more general interaction beyond requests of inclusion within the database. Consequently, no personal data will be retained on this site beyond the aforementioned contact information from requestors. We will make reasonable efforts to protect that limited dataset.

What data breach procedures we have in place

We have firewalls and similar protections in place.

What third parties we receive data from

No third party data is received.

What automated decision making and/or profiling we do with user data

No automated decision making or profiling is done with any user data.

Industry regulatory disclosure requirements
