This Privacy Policy explains what information gofotracking.org (“GoFo Tracking”, “we”) collects and how it is used. GoFo Tracking is an independent tracking helper and is not affiliated with GOFO Express.
Tracking numbers and local storage
The tracking tool runs in your browser. Tracking numbers you type are not sent to our server. To show your “Recent searches”, the tool saves up to 10 recent tracking numbers in your browser’s localStorage. This data stays on your own device, is never sent to us, and you can remove it at any time with the “Clear all” link or by clearing your browser data.
When you choose to track a number, you are sent to the official GOFO tracking page or to a third-party tracker (17TRACK or ParcelsApp). For the GOFO page, the number is copied to your clipboard so you can paste it there. Those websites have their own privacy policies, which apply once you visit them.
Cookies, analytics and advertising
Like most websites, we may use cookies and similar technologies to keep the site working, to understand how visitors use it (for example with an analytics service such as Google Analytics), and in the future to show advertising (for example Google AdSense). These services may collect information such as your IP address, browser type and pages visited, and advertising partners may use cookies to show ads based on your visits to this and other websites. Where required by law, we will ask for your consent before setting non-essential cookies. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, and you can learn more about ad personalization at Google Ads Settings.
Server logs
Our hosting provider may keep standard server logs (such as IP address, date and time, and requested page) for security and performance purposes.
Who we are
Our website address is: https://gofotracking.org.
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.
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
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
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.
