Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data 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 created from your email address (also called a hash) may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available at: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture becomes publicly visible in the context of your comment.
Media
If you upload images to the website, you should avoid including embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the website can download and extract location data from images uploaded to the site.
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 you don’t 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, a temporary cookie will be set 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, several cookies will be set to save your login information and screen display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, and screen option cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. Logging out 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 data and simply records the post ID of the article. It expires after one day.
Embedded content from other websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content such as videos, images, or other articles. Embedded content from other websites behaves in the same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.
These external websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with their content, including tracking if you’re logged into an account on their site.
Who we share your data with
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email for security purposes.
How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This helps us recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users who register on our site (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 on this site or have left comments, you may request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided. You may also request that we erase any personal data we hold. This does not include data we are required to keep for administrative, legal, or security reasons.
Where your data is sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service to maintain site integrity and user safety.
