Effective Date: July 27, 2026
At Farallon Productions™ (accessible from https://www.farallonproductions.com), your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy outlines the types of personal information we collect, how it is used, and how we protect your information when you visit our website.
1. Information We Collect
Email Newsletter Subscriptions (Mailchimp)
If you subscribe to our newsletter, we collect personal information such as your email address and optional details (e.g., your name).
We use Mailchimp as our email marketing platform. By subscribing, you acknowledge and agree that the information you provide will be transferred to Mailchimp for processing in accordance with Mailchimp’s Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.
You may unsubscribe from our mailing list at any time by clicking the “Unsubscribe” link at the bottom of any email we send.
Comments and Contact Forms
When visitors leave comments or submit inquiry forms on the site, we collect the data shown in the form fields, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to assist with spam detection.
An anonymized string created from your email address (a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service if you use it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. Upon approval of your comment, your profile picture (if applicable) is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
2. Analytics & Tracking Technologies
Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics to collect information about how visitors interact with our website. Google Analytics uses cookies and similar technologies to track data such as your IP address, browser type, operating system, pages visited, and time spent on the site.
This data helps us analyze website traffic and improve user experience. Google Analytics does not collect personally identifying information such as your name or email address. You can learn more about how Google processes data by visiting Google’s Privacy & Terms.
Cookies
- Analytics Cookies: Used by Google Analytics to remember user sessions and analyze site traffic.
- Newsletter Cookies: Used to manage popup subscription forms and prevent showing redundant signup forms to returning subscribers.
- Comments Cookies: If you leave a comment on our site, you may opt-in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies for your convenience. These cookies last for one year.
- Accounts & Login: If you visit our login page, a temporary cookie will be set 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, several cookies are set to save your login information and screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, screen options cookies last for one year, and selecting “Remember Me” keeps your login active for two weeks. Logging out removes these cookies.
3. Embedded Content from Other Websites
Articles or pages on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, social media feeds, or audio players). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the external website directly.
These third-party websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content.
4. How We Share Your Data
We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal identification information to third parties.
- Service Providers: We share necessary data with trusted third-party service providers who assist us in operating our website and delivering services—specifically Mailchimp (for email campaigns) and automated spam detection services.
- Password Resets: If you request a password reset for an account on this site, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
5. Data Retention & Your Rights
- Retention: Newsletter recipient data is retained in Mailchimp until you unsubscribe or request removal. Comments and their metadata are retained indefinitely so we can recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically. Registered user account details are stored in user profiles.
- Your Rights: If you have an account, have subscribed to our newsletter, or have left comments, you have the right to request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, or request that we erase any personal data we hold. (Note: This excludes data we are obligated to retain for administrative, legal, or security purposes.)
