What personal data we collect and why we collect it

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to aid in spam detection.

An anonymized string generated from your email address (also known as a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. The Gravatar service Privacy Policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After your comment is approved, your profile picture is visible to the public within the context of your comment.

Media

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

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site, you may choose to save 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 leaving another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

When you visit our login page, a temporary cookie is set to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

Upon logging in, several cookies are set to save your login information and screen display choices. 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 will remove the login cookies.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after 1 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 the same as if the visitor has visited the other website.

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

For users who register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also view and edit that information.

What rights you have over your data

If you possess an account on this site or have left comments, you have the option to request an exported file containing the personal data we have on record for you, including any information you’ve shared with us. Additionally, you can ask us to delete any personal data we hold about you. Please note that this does not encompass data we are required to retain for administrative, legal, or security reasons.

Where we send your data

Comments from visitors might undergo examination via an automated spam detection service.
