Who We Are
Our site operates at https://americanpatriotpress.com.
Comments
When visitors post comments, we collect the information they provide in the comment form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser details, to assist in identifying and filtering spam.
We may use an anonymized version of your email address (a “hash”) to check if you have a Gravatar account. For more about how Gravatar handles your data, visit their privacy policy. Once your comment is approved, any Gravatar-linked profile image will appear with your comment.
Media
If you upload images to the website, we advise removing any embedded location information (like EXIF GPS data). Other visitors to the site may be able to access and extract location data from the images.
Cookies
When you leave a comment, you can choose to save your name, email, and website in cookies for convenience. These cookies remain active for one year, ensuring you don’t have to re-enter details for future comments.
If you visit our login page, we set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie doesn’t store personal data and is deleted when you close your browser.
Once logged in, additional cookies are set to save your login details and display preferences:
- Login cookies are valid for two days.

If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. Logging out deletes the login cookies.
For users editing or publishing articles, a cookie is saved in the browser that contains the post ID of the edited article. This cookie expires after 24 hours and does not store personal data.
Embedded Content from Other Websites
Some posts on this site may include embedded content, such as videos, images, or articles. Embedded content from other websites behaves as if you visited their platform directly.
These external sites may collect data, use cookies, include additional tracking mechanisms, and monitor your interactions, especially if you are logged into their services.
