Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data provided in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user-agent string, to help us detect spam.
An anonymized string created from your email address (a “hash”) may be provided to the Gravatar service to determine 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 (if any) is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
Media
If you upload images to our website, we recommend that you remove any embedded location data (EXIF GPS) from the files. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the site.

Editing/Publishing Cookies
If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be stored in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply 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). Embedded content from other websites behaves as if you visited those websites directly. These sites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content. If you have an account and are logged in on those websites, they may track your interactions with the embedded content. We are not responsible for how third-party sites handle your personal information.
Who we share your data with
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email. Beyond that, we do not share your data with third parties unless it is necessary to comply with legal obligations, protect our rights, or operate our services.
How long we retain your data
Comments: If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This allows us to recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
User Accounts: For users who register on our website (if any), we store the personal information they provide in their user profile. Users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except for their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that 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 to us. You can also request the erasure of any personal data we hold about you. This excludes data we are legally obligated to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where your data is sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service to help protect our site and its users.
