Comments

When you leave a comment on our site, the data entered in the comment form, as well as your IP address and browser user agent, are collected to help detect spam comments.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you use it. The Gravatar privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After your comment is approved, your profile picture will be publicly visible next to your comment.

Media

If you upload images to the website, we advise you to avoid uploading images containing GPS EXIF data. Visitors to the site can download and extract location data from those images.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site, you may choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. This is for your convenience, so you do not have to re-enter your details when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

When you visit the login page, a temporary cookie is set to determine if your browser accepts cookies. It 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 preferences. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for one year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.

If you edit or publish a post, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie contains no personal data and simply indicates the ID of the post you just edited. It expires after one day.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor had visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed third-party tracking tools, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, especially if you have an account and are logged into that website.

Use and transmission of your personal data

If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.

Data retention periods

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 instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users who register on our site (if applicable), we also 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 view and edit that information.

Your rights over your data

If you have an account or have left comments on the site, you can request to receive a file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided. You can also request the erasure of your personal data. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where your data is sent

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