Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the information provided in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to assist with spam detection.
An anonymized string generated from your email address (called a hash) may be shared with the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture becomes publicly visible in the context of your comment.
Media
If you upload images to our website, avoid including embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the site can download and extract any location data from images posted on the website.
Cookies
If you leave a comment on our site, you may opt-in to save your name, email address, and website in cookies for your convenience. These cookies last for one year, allowing you to avoid re-entering details for future comments.
When visiting our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to check if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
If you log in, we will set several cookies to store your login details and screen preferences. Login cookies last for two days, while screen option cookies last for one year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. When you log out, the login cookies are removed.
If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser, which includes no personal data and expires after one day.
Embedded Content from Other Websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, or articles). Embedded content behaves exactly as if you had visited the external website, which may collect data, use cookies, and embed third-party tracking. These websites may monitor your interactions with their content, especially if you are logged into those services.
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, both the comment and its metadata are stored indefinitely, allowing us to automatically approve follow-up comments rather than holding them for moderation.
For users who register on our website, we store the personal data provided in their user profile. Users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except for their username). Website administrators can also view and modify this information.
Your Rights 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. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold, except for data we are required to retain for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where We Send Your Data
Visitor comments may be processed through an automated spam detection service.
