Comments

When visitors leave comments, we collect the data shown in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent to help detect spam. An anonymized string (hash) created from your email may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you use it. For information on Gravatar’s privacy practices, visit Automattic’s privacy policy. Once approved, your profile picture is visible with your comment.

Media

If you upload images, please avoid including embedded location data (EXIF GPS), as visitors can download and extract location data from images on the website.

Cookies

When you leave a comment, you can opt to save your name, email, and website in cookies for your convenience. These last for one year.
Visiting our login page sets a temporary cookie to check if your browser accepts cookies, which is discarded when you close your browser.
Logging in creates several cookies to save your login info 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 removes the login cookies.
Editing or publishing an article saves an additional cookie in your browser, which expires after one day and contains no personal data, only the post ID of the article.
Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles) that behaves the same as if you visited the external site. These sites may collect data, use cookies, and track your interaction with their embedded content, especially if you are logged in to those sites.

Who We Share Your Data With

How Long We Retain Your Data

Comments and their metadata are retained indefinitely for follow-up comment recognition without moderation. For registered users, we store personal information in their profile, which they and site administrators can edit. Users cannot change their username.

Your Data Rights

If you have an account or have left comments, you may request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you. You can also request the erasure of your data, excluding data we need to retain for legal, administrative, or security reasons.
