Last updated: February 25, 2025

Who We Are

Our website address is: https://ns.digital. NS.Digital is a Halifax-based digital agency providing web development, software and app development, digital marketing, media production, UI/UX design, and DevOps solutions.

Comments

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

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to check 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 you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the website can download and extract location data from images on the site.

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 you don’t have to fill in your details again when leaving another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

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 also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, and screen option cookies last for one year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out, 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). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the same way as if the visitor has visited that other website.

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

Who We Share Your Data With

If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email. We do not sell or rent your personal information to third parties. Limited data may be shared with trusted service providers (such as hosting, analytics, or email platforms) strictly to operate our business.

How Long We Retain Your Data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This allows us to recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them for moderation.

For users that register on our website (if any), we store the personal information they provide in their profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except usernames, which cannot be changed). Website administrators can also see and edit this information.

What Rights You Have Over Your Data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you may request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including data you provided to us. You may also request that we delete any personal data we hold about you, except for data we are required to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where We Send Your Data

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service. Data may also be processed by secure, reputable third-party providers (e.g., hosting companies, cloud storage, or analytics tools) used by NS.Digital to operate our website and services.
