Who we are

Our company is Pyles Communications Corporation, an Ohio corporation. Our website address is: https://www.pylescommunications.com. The site is built using the WordPress content management system. WordPress does not collect any personal data about visitors, and only collects the data shown on the User Profile screen from registered users. 

What personal data we collect and why we collect it

Comments

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

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see 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.
