Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the information entered in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help detect spam.
An anonymized string (also called a hash) created from your email address may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you’re using it. You can read their privacy policy here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture may be publicly visible next to your comment.
Media
If you upload images to the website, we recommend avoiding images that include embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the site can download and extract location information from images.
Cookies
If you leave a comment, you may choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. This is for your convenience so you don’t have to re-enter your details the next time you comment. These cookies last for one year.
When you visit our login page, we set a temporary cookie to check if your browser accepts cookies. It contains no personal data and is deleted when you close your browser.
Upon logging in, we use cookies to save your login details and screen preferences. Login cookies last two days, and screen option cookies last for a year. Selecting “Remember Me” will keep your login active for two weeks. Logging out will remove these cookies.
If you edit or publish a post, a cookie is saved in your browser. It includes no personal information—just the post ID—and expires after one day.
Embedded Content from Other Websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (like videos, images, or articles). Embedded content from other sites behaves exactly as if you visited those websites directly. These sites may collect data about you, use cookies, and monitor your interaction with that content, especially if you’re logged in to those sites.
Who We Share Your Data With
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email for security.
How Long We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment, it and its metadata are stored indefinitely to allow for automatic approval of future comments.
If you register on our website (if applicable), we store the personal information you provide in your user profile. You can view, edit, or delete your information at any time (except your username). Site administrators can also view and edit this information.
Your Data Rights
If you have an account or have left comments, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including anything you’ve shared with us. You can also request that we delete your personal data. This does not include data we’re required to keep for administrative, legal, or security reasons.
Where Your Data Is Sent
Visitor comments may be screened through an automated spam detection service.
