What personal data we collect and why we collect it

Comments

When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, along with the visitor's IP address and browser user agent string. This information is collected to help us detect and prevent spam.

An anonymized string (also known as a hash) may be created from your email address and provided to the Gravatar service to determine if you are using it. The Gravatar service's privacy policy is available here: Gravatar Privacy Policy. After your comment is approved, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media

If you upload images to our website, please ensure that you do not include images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors can download and extract location data from images on our website.

Contact Forms

When you use our contact forms, we collect the information you provide to us for the purpose of responding to your inquiries or requests.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site, you may choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. These cookies are for your convenience, so you don't have to re-enter your information when leaving another comment. These cookies are set to expire after one year.

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

Upon logging in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies remain active for two days, while screen options cookies last for a year. If you select "Remember Me," your login will persist for two weeks. Logging out of your account will remove the login cookies.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and only indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after 1 day.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles) from other websites. Embedded content from other websites behaves in the same way as if the visitor had visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content, including tracking your interaction if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Analytics – Who we share your data with

We do not share your personal data with third parties for analytical purposes.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This enables us to automatically recognize and approve follow-up comments without requiring moderation.

For users who register on our website, we store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time, except for their username, which cannot be changed. Website administrators can also view and edit this information.

Your Rights

If you have an account on our site or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request the deletion of any personal data we hold about you, except for data that we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
