Privacy

This notice covers the current Blue Groove journal and its editorial inbox. The publication is independent of the former RC shop; it has no order-history or customer-account recovery service.

Reading workshop notes

No reader account is needed. Page delivery exposes connection details, such as your IP address, requested URL and browser information, to the hosting and delivery systems. Their operational or security logs may record those requests. Do not put private information in a search or URL.

Correspondence kept with this journal

The contact form records the message and email you supply, plus a name if you choose to give one, in this site’s private WordPress database. It does not publish the submission or automatically email it to an outside mailbox or marketing service. An editor can read it in the site administration; any reply is handled manually.

Messages become eligible for deletion after 90 days. The daily WordPress cleanup task removes eligible entries when scheduled tasks run, so deletion need not occur at the exact 90-day boundary. To curb repeated submissions, a separate hashed network identifier is retained for one hour. Hosting logs are separate from that short-lived identifier.

For earlier removal, use the editorial contact form and identify your previous message without repeating sensitive material. A site administrator can remove the entry. Manufacturer and archive links open services with their own privacy policies; this journal does not control their accounts or records.
