Last updated: May 25, 2025

At HIGHMOORE (https://highmoore.com), we’re committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy outlines what data we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have regarding your personal information.

Who We Are

HIGHMOORE is a digital media platform focused on pop culture, commentary, and entertainment, curated for the Gen-Z and young millennial audience. Our website address is: https://highmoore.com.

Comments

When you leave comments on our site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, as well as your IP address and browser user agent string to help detect spam.

We may use the Gravatar service to display your profile picture. An anonymized string (hash) of your email address may be sent to Gravatar. You can view their privacy policy here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture will be visible to the public alongside your comment.

Media

If you upload images to HIGHMOORE, please avoid including embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the site can potentially extract location data from uploaded images.

Cookies

If you leave a comment, you can opt-in to save your name, email, and website in cookies. These are for convenience, so you don’t have to re-enter your info next time. These cookies last for one year.

When visiting our login page, we set a temporary cookie to check if your browser accepts cookies. This contains no personal data and is deleted when you close your browser.

Upon logging in, we’ll set cookies to save your login info and screen display preferences:

Login cookies: Last for two days (or two weeks if “Remember Me” is selected)
Display preferences cookies: Last for one year
Logging out removes login cookies.

If you edit or publish an article, another cookie is saved in your browser. It contains the post ID of the article edited (no personal data) and expires after one day.

Embedded Content from Other Sites

Articles on HIGHMOORE may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, tweets). Embedded content behaves just as it would on the original platform and may:

Collect data about you
Use cookies
Embed third-party tracking
Track your interaction if you’re logged in to that platform

We recommend reviewing the privacy policies of these third-party services.

Who We Share Your Data With

If you request a password reset, your IP address may be included in the reset email.

How Long We Retain Your Data

If you leave a comment, both the comment and its metadata are stored indefinitely. This helps us automatically approve follow-up comments instead of holding them for moderation.

For registered users (if applicable), we store the personal info provided in their user profile. All users can view, edit, or delete their data at any time (username changes excluded). Site admins can also access and edit this info.

Your Data Rights

If you have an account or have left comments, you can:

Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you
Request that we erase any of your personal data

This excludes data we’re required to keep for administrative, legal, or security reasons. To make such a request, please contact us at: highmooresupport@gmail.com
