Who we are
We are a group of young Thomians who came together with one goal — to create a safe, friendly, and fun atmosphere to enjoy the Royal–Thomian Big Match the way it should be. Our website address is: https://lavos.lk.
Comments
When you leave a comment on our site, we collect the details you type in (nothing sneaky), along with your IP address and browser info — mainly to keep spam bots from crashing the party.
If you use Gravatar, an anonymised version of your email (a fancy thing called a “hash”) may be sent there to check if you have a profile picture. You can read Gravatar’s privacy policy here: https://automattic.com/privacy/.
Once your comment is approved, your profile picture (if any) will appear next to it — so everyone knows it’s really you.
Media
If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.
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 that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave 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 will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, 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, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
Who we share your data with
We may share limited and relevant information with carefully selected potential sponsors who help make our events better. Don’t worry — we only work with credible partners, and your data is not for sale, spam, or random “Good morning sir” phone calls. We make sure it’s used responsibly and never misused.
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.
For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
What rights you have over your data
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where your data is sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
