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.
If you use the Gravatar service, we may send an anonymized string (or “hash”) created from your email address to check if you have an associated profile. You can review the Gravatar privacy policy here. Once we approve your comment, your profile picture will be displayed publicly alongside your comment.
Media
If you upload images to the website, please avoid including embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Other visitors may download and extract any location data from images posted on the site.
Cookies
If you leave a comment, you may opt-in to save your name, email, and website in cookies for convenience, so you don’t have to re-enter your details for future comments. These cookies last for one year.
When you visit our login page, we set a temporary cookie to check if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and disappears when you close your browser. When you log in, we set up several cookies to save your login information and screen preferences. Login cookies last for two days, screen options cookies last for a year, and selecting “Remember Me” keeps your login for two weeks. Logging out removes the login cookies.
If you edit or publish an article, we save an additional cookie in your browser that contains no personal data and only indicates the post ID of the article you edited. It expires after one day.
Embedded Content from Other Websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles) from other websites. This embedded content behaves as if you visited the original site. These sites may collect data about you, use cookies, and monitor your interactions, including if you have an account and log in on that site.
Data Retention
We store comments and their metadata indefinitely to recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically. For registered users, we keep personal information in their user profiles. Users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time, except for the username. Website administrators can also view and edit this information.
Your Data Right
If you have an account on this site or have left comments, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you. You may also request that we delete any personal data we hold about you, except data we must keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Data Processing Location
We may check visitor comments through an automated spam detection service.
