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. This information helps us detect and prevent spam.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. For details, see the Gravatar privacy policy here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture will be visible publicly alongside your comment.

If you upload images to the website, please avoid uploading images that contain embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the website may be able to download and extract this information from images.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site, you may choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. These cookies help you avoid re-entering your details when you leave another comment. They expire after 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 is deleted when you close your browser.

When you log in, we set several cookies to save your login information and screen display preferences. Login cookies last for two days; screen options cookies last for one year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. Logging out removes the login cookies.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie is saved in your browser. This cookie contains no personal data and simply indicates the post ID you edited. It expires after one day.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content such as videos, images, or articles from other websites. These embedded items behave as if you visited the other website directly.

These third-party websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional tracking, and monitor your interaction with their content, especially if you have an account and are logged in on those sites.

Who we share your data with

If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email for security purposes.

We do not sell or rent your personal data to third parties.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are stored indefinitely. This allows us to recognize and automatically approve any follow-up comments, reducing moderation delays.
