Who we share your data with

How long we retain your data

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

For users who 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 that 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 your data is sent

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

What are our terms of use?

All writing, information, content and electronic material of every kind appearing on this website has been published by the site administration on a voluntary basis and without any financial gain, with the general aim of directing the public and interested readers towards literature and art and of fostering a love of both; it serves no commercial or other purpose. None of the writing on this website (other than by the authors of the texts themselves) may be altered by third parties without the permission of the site administration, published under another name, or translated into another language. Every person who uses the site is deemed to have accepted the “Terms of Use”, which take effect from the moment the site is first used. The magazine’s administration reserves the right to amend the “Terms of Use” at any time, provided that the changes are published online. It is the responsibility of the site user to follow the “Terms of Use” regularly in order to be informed of online changes in good time. Anyone who continues to use the site after such changes have been made is deemed to have accepted them. Users and writers are deemed to have undertaken to act in accordance with the applicable law. Otherwise, all legal and criminal liability rests with the user. Furthermore, writers who submit work and whose work is published accept that all legal responsibility for the texts they send to the site rests with them. Writers remain solely responsible for all content they have provided and for their earlier writing, even if they cease to write for the site or end their relationship with it. Users and writers accept that the material they submit to the site or the comments they post are accurate, complete and lawful. Users and writers are prohibited from sending messages or content to other users and writers that constitute threats, harassment, insult or abuse.

The editorial administration of the site has the right to decide whether or not to use any information, data, writing, photograph, video, sound clip, comment, article, software, code or graphic — defined in short as content — that is submitted to the site. The publication of such content and material submitted for free use on the site, and of the writing that is published, is likewise free of charge. The site administration may, however, make certain categories subject to a fee and may set that fee unilaterally.

The site administration may decline, leave unanswered, decline to publish, or publish late any content, email, writing or message received from users and writers, without giving a reason.

Users may not obstruct the use of the site or damage its databases. They may not submit writing by means of software containing a virus. They may not gain access to any data or password they are not authorised to access. They may not disclose, directly or indirectly, the algorithms or code of the services provided on this site. They may not submit unlawful content or send software viruses that would harm third parties. Otherwise, the site administration reserves the right to bring legal proceedings against such persons. The site administration cannot be held responsible for any damage, loss or expense, including that arising directly or indirectly from any fault, error, omission, interruption, defect, computer virus or system failure during the use of this website.
