Who we are

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

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the information shown in the comment form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help detect spam.
Comments may be checked through Akismet Anti-Spam, a service provided by Automattic (WordPress.com). This helps us prevent spam and abusive content. Akismet may process your comment data on its own servers in accordance with their Privacy Policy

Contact Forms

If you submit a message through a contact form on this website (powered by WPForms Lite), we collect the information you provide—typically your name, email address, and message.
That information is emailed to us through our secure mail server (GoSMTP) and may be stored temporarily in our WordPress database for delivery and follow-up purposes. We do not share or sell this information.

Live Chat

Our site uses ProProfs Chat to provide live support and engagement. When you start a chat, ProProfs may collect your IP address, browser details, and the content of your messages.
This data is processed by ProProfs to facilitate real-time communication and customer support. Please see ProProfs Privacy Policy

Media

If you upload images to the website (for example, as part of a comment or listing), please avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS).
Visitors to the website can download and extract location data from those images.

Cookies & Tracking

This site uses CookieAdmin to display a consent banner and manage cookie preferences in compliance with GDPR and CCPA.
You can change or withdraw your consent at any time using the banner or by clearing cookies in your browser.Aside from the optional comment cookies and essential WordPress session cookies, we do not use tracking or advertising cookies.

Embedded content

Articles or pages on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, or maps).
Embedded content from other websites behaves as if you visited those sites directly, meaning those third parties may collect data or use cookies according to their own privacy policies.

Security

We use Loginizer and LiteSpeed Cache to protect the site against unauthorized login attempts and to optimize performance.
These tools do not collect visitor-identifiable data.

Data Retention & Rights

If you leave a comment or send a message, the data and its metadata are retained for as long as needed to respond or maintain conversation context.
You can request an exported file of your personal data or request that we erase it, except data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Policy Updates

This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time as we add or remove plugins, change hosting services, or update website functionality.
When significant changes are made, we’ll revise the “last updated” date on this page to reflect the latest version.
Your continued use of the site after any updates means you accept the revised policy.
