Comments

When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect the information provided in the comment form, including the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to assist with spam detection.

An anonymized string generated from your email address (also called a hash) may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you’re using it. You can view Gravatar’s privacy policy here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture will be visible to the public alongside your comment.

Media

If you upload images to the website, please avoid including any embedded location data (EXIF GPS) in the images. Visitors to the site can download and extract any location data from images present on the site.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site, you may opt to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. These cookies are for your convenience, so you don’t need to re-enter your details the next time you comment. These cookies last for one year.

When you visit our login page, a temporary cookie will be set 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, several cookies will be set to save your login details and screen preferences. 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. Logging out of your account removes the login cookies.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be stored in your browser. This cookie contains no personal information and only indicates the post ID of the article you edited. It expires after one day.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content such as videos, images, or articles. Embedded content from other websites behaves exactly as if you visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interactions with the embedded content, including tracking your interaction if you have an account and are logged into 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 allows us to recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically, rather than holding them in a moderation queue.

For registered users (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 for their username). Website administrators can also access and modify this information.

What Rights You Have Over Your Data

If you have an account or have left comments on this site, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided. You can also request that we erase any personal data we have about you, although this does not include data we are required to retain for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where Your Data Is Sent

Visitor comments may be processed through an automated spam detection service.
