Hexagon Valley Privacy Policy

Who we are

Our website address is: https://hexagonvalley.com.au.

TLDR – Like most legitimate medium sized businesses, we hate spam. We also hate our personal information being sold off to third party companies. We protect your data like our own.

Like other similar businesses we may from time to time run Google marketing campaigns. When coming on to our site, a small tracking cookie may be installed to let Google know about your behaviour on our website.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.

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.
