Introduction
The Bicycle Instructor Certification Program (“BICP”, “we”, “our”, or “us”) is committed to protecting your privacy.
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information when you visit our website, https://icp.bike, and describes your rights regarding your personal data.
1. Comments
When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect the information shown in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help with spam detection.
An anonymized string (hash) created from your email address may be provided to the Gravatar service to determine if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After your comment is approved, your profile picture will be visible to the public in the context of your comment.
2. Media
If you upload images to our website, avoid uploading those that include embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images available on the site.
3. Cookies
Comment Cookies
If you leave a comment, you may opt-in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. This is for your convenience so you do not have to re-enter your details for future comments. These cookies will last for one year.
Login Cookies
When you visit our login page, we set a temporary cookie to check if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
When you log in, we set several cookies to save your login information and screen display preferences:
– Login cookies last for two days.
– Screen option cookies last for one year.
– If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks.
– When you log out, the login cookies will be removed.
If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie contains no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after one day.
4. Embedded Content from Other Websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, or articles). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the same way as if you visited the other website directly.
These third-party websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content — including tracking your activity if you have an account and are logged into that website.
5. Who We Share Your Data With
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
6. How Long We Retain Your Data
– If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This helps us automatically recognize and approve follow-up comments, rather than holding them in a moderation queue.
– For users who register on our website (if any), we store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also view and edit that information.
7. What Rights You Have Over Your Data
If you have an account on this site or have left comments, you can request that we erase any personal data we hold about you.
This does not include data we are required to retain for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
To make a request, please contact us at info@icp.bike.
8. Data Security
We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, please note that no method of data transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure.
9. Updates to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons.
The most recent version will always be available at https://icp.bike/privacy-policy, with the “Last updated” date at the top of the page.
