After all, there&#8217;s a reason Freya has security systems, Mark insists on checking everything twice, and Gabriel handles the paperwork.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This Privacy Policy explains what information this website may collect, why it is collected, how it may be used, and the choices available to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Short Version<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We collect only the information reasonably needed to operate the website, manage comments or accounts if those features are enabled, protect the site from spam and abuse, and respond when you contact us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>We do not sell your personal information.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We do not use your information to track you across star systems, sell your browsing habits to questionable salvage operators, or determine whether you have an outstanding debt with the Calder Station docking authority.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gabriel might be interested in negotiating your docking fees, but that&#8217;s another matter entirely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Comments<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When visitors leave comments on the site, we may collect information entered into the comment form, including your name, email address, website address if provided, and comment text.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We may also collect your IP address and browser user-agent information to help detect spam, abuse, and automated comment activity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your comment, display name, and any public profile image connected to your account may be visible to other visitors once your comment is approved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Please do not include private, confidential, or sensitive personal information in public comments. Comments are public by nature, and the internet has a considerably longer memory than even Freya&#8217;s oldest backup systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gravatar Profile Images<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If comments are enabled, an anonymized value created from your email address may be sent to the Gravatar service to determine whether you have an associated profile image.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If a matching image exists and your comment is approved, that image may appear publicly beside your comment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gravatar is operated by Automattic. Please review Automattic&#8217;s applicable privacy information for details about how Gravatar handles personal information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Media Uploads<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you upload images to this website, please avoid including embedded location information, such as GPS coordinates stored in image metadata.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Visitors may be able to download published images and extract embedded metadata.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In other words, before uploading a photograph, make sure you aren&#8217;t accidentally publishing the precise location of your home, your favorite hiding spot, or a particularly valuable piece of unclaimed salvage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mark would definitely check the metadata first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cookies<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cookies are small files stored by your browser that help websites remember information and function properly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This website may use cookies for the following purposes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Remembering comment-form details, such as your name, email address, and website address, if you choose to save them.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Checking whether your browser accepts cookies when accessing a login page.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Keeping registered users logged in.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Remembering display preferences for registered users or site administrators.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Supporting website security, spam prevention, and basic functionality.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Supporting embedded content or third-party services, where applicable.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you leave a comment and choose to save your information, the related cookies may remain in your browser for up to one year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Login cookies generally remain active for a limited period. Selecting a &#8220;Remember Me&#8221; option may keep a login session active longer. Logging out should remove active login cookies from your browser.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can control, block, or delete cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect features such as commenting, logging in, or viewing embedded content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Think of cookies as small maintenance records for your browser. Useful when properly managed, considerably less useful when Gabriel starts reorganizing them without telling Mark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Embedded Content From Other Websites<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Articles and pages on this website may include embedded content from other websites, such as videos, images, social-media posts, music players, or articles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Embedded content behaves much as it would if you visited the outside website directly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The external website may collect information about you, use cookies, monitor your interaction with the embedded material, or associate that activity with an account you have with that service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We do not control the privacy practices of outside websites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Please review the privacy policies of third-party services whose content you choose to access.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Freya may be able to recover lost cargo from a debris field, but she cannot recover control over information you voluntarily share with an unrelated website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">User Accounts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If visitor registration is enabled, we may collect information you provide when creating or managing an account, including your username, email address, display name, password-related account data, and any optional profile information you choose to provide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Registered users may generally view, update, or delete their personal profile information, although usernames may not always be changeable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Site administrators may access account information when reasonably necessary to operate, secure, moderate, maintain, or support the website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Account information is not made publicly available except for profile details or contributions that the website specifically identifies as public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Password Resets<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you request a password reset, the reset email may include your IP address as part of the website&#8217;s security and account-recovery procedures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We encourage visitors to use unique, strong passwords and to keep account-recovery information secure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As Mark would undoubtedly point out, using &#8220;password123&#8221; is not an acceptable security strategy, even if you insist nobody would ever guess it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How We Use Information<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Information collected through this website may be used to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Publish and moderate visitor comments.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Respond to messages, questions, and requests.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Operate, maintain, secure, and improve website functionality.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Identify and prevent spam, fraud, abuse, or unauthorized activity.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Support user accounts, authentication, and password recovery.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Investigate technical problems or security incidents.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Comply with applicable legal obligations and enforce website rules.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We aim to collect and use only the information reasonably necessary for these purposes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No unnecessary surveillance. No secret tracking beacons. No suspiciously enthusiastic bounty hunters demanding access to your browsing history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We leave that sort of nonsense to the fictional universe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Who We Share Information With<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We may share limited information with service providers that help operate or protect the website, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Website hosting providers.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Spam-detection and comment-moderation services.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Email delivery providers.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Security, backup, and website-maintenance services.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Comment-avatar services, such as Gravatar, when enabled.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Third-party services whose content is embedded on the website.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We may also disclose information when reasonably necessary to comply with applicable law, respond to valid legal requests, investigate security incidents, protect website users, or defend the security and integrity of the site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>We do not sell personal information.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We also do not trade visitor information for salvage rights, discounted reactor components, industrial fabrication equipment, or even an exceptionally attractive commercial recovery contract.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gabriel has been specifically informed of this policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Long We Keep Information<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Comments and associated metadata may be retained indefinitely to help recognize follow-up comments, manage moderation, and reduce spam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you create an account, we may retain the personal information associated with your profile for as long as the account remains active or as otherwise reasonably necessary to operate the website, meet legal obligations, resolve disputes, or maintain security records.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Certain information may remain in security logs, administrative records, or backups for a reasonable period after an account or comment has been removed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information, the reason it was collected, and any applicable legal or operational requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We do not keep personal information indefinitely simply because Freya has plenty of storage space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Your Choices and Rights<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Depending on where you live and how you interact with the website, you may be entitled to request:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Access to personal information we hold about you.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A copy of personal information you have provided.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Correction of inaccurate or incomplete information.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Deletion of personal information, subject to applicable legal, security, and administrative exceptions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Removal of a public comment you submitted, where appropriate.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To make a privacy-related request, contact <a href=\"mailto:thane@threewerewolves.com\"><strong>thane@threewerewolves.com<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Please provide enough information for us to identify the relevant account, comment, or request.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We may need to verify your identity before completing certain requests to protect against unauthorized access or deletion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No complicated interstellar identification procedures required. We simply want to make sure the person requesting access to your information is actually you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Children&#8217;s Privacy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This website is not intended to knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13 without appropriate parental consent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you believe a child has provided personal information through this website without permission, please contact <a href=\"mailto:thane@threewerewolves.com\"><strong>thane@threewerewolves.com<\/strong><\/a> so we can review the situation and take appropriate action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our fictional stories may involve younger characters learning, growing, and finding their place in the galaxy, but protecting the privacy of real children is a serious responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Security<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards to help protect information collected through this website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These measures may include access controls, software maintenance, security monitoring, and other protections appropriate to the website&#8217;s operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, no website, electronic storage system, or internet transmission can be guaranteed completely secure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We encourage visitors to use strong passwords, avoid sharing sensitive information in public comments, and maintain the security of their own devices and accounts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In Freya&#8217;s engineering department, Mark has a simple philosophy: verify the connections, check the safeguards, and never assume something is secure just because the indicator is green.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That&#8217;s a pretty good philosophy for website security, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Third-Party Links<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This website may contain links to external websites, services, or resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Following those links may take you to websites that operate independently and maintain their own privacy policies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We are not responsible for the content, security, or privacy practices of external websites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We encourage visitors to review the applicable privacy information before providing personal information to any third-party service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just because another ship appears friendly on the communications display doesn&#8217;t mean you should immediately transmit your entire cargo manifest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Changes to This Privacy Policy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in website functionality, available services, privacy practices, or applicable legal requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When changes are made, we will update the Effective Date at the top of this page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We encourage visitors to review this page periodically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unlike Freya&#8217;s maintenance logs, these updates probably won&#8217;t include detailed descriptions of replacement hydraulic fittings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Probably.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Contact Us<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For privacy questions, requests, or concerns, please contact:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Three Werewolves: The Wolves of Freya<\/strong><br><strong>Email:<\/strong> <a href=\"mailto:thane@threewerewolves.com\">thane@threewerewolves.com<\/a><br><strong>Website:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/threewerewolves.com\/wolvesoffreya\">https:\/\/threewerewolves.com\/wolvesoffreya<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We appreciate your interest in The Wolves of Freya and thank you for spending some time aboard our little corner of the universe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Enjoy the stories, respect your fellow readers, and remember:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Powerful paws, powerful you.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2014 <em>The Wolves of Freya<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Effective Date: November 4, 2026Website: Three Werewolves: The Wolves of FreyaWebsite Address: https:\/\/threewerewolves.com\/wolvesoffreyaContact: thane@threewerewolves.com Welcome to Three Werewolves: The Wolves of Freya.
