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, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help detect spam.

An anonymized string (also called a hash) created from your email address may be provided to the Gravatar service to check if you’re using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After your comment is approved, your profile picture will be visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media

If you upload images to the website, please avoid including embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the site can download and extract this location data from uploaded images.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site, you may opt in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. This is for your convenience—so you don’t have to re-enter your details the next time you comment. These cookies last for one year.

If you have an account and log in, a temporary cookie will be set to check if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

Login cookies last two days. Screen option cookies last one year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. When you log out, those cookies are removed.

If you edit or publish a post, another cookie will be stored in your browser. It includes no personal data—just the post ID—and expires after one day.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles). Embedded content behaves exactly as if you visited the original website.

Those websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with their content—especially if you’re logged in to that other site.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely so we can recognize and approve follow-ups automatically, instead of holding them for moderation.

For registered users (if any), we also store the personal information provided in their profile. All users can view, edit, or delete their personal info anytime (except username). Website admins can also view and edit this data.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account or have left comments, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you—including any data you’ve provided. You can also request that we erase it. This excludes any data we’re required to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where we send your data

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