Who We Are

Our website is accessible at .

Comments

When visitors leave comments on our site, we gather the information displayed in the comments form. We also collect the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to assist in spam detection.

Your email address may be used to create an anonymized string, or hash, which might be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. The Gravatar service’s privacy policy can be found here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture will be visible to the public alongside your comment.

Media

If you upload images to the website, we recommend you avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) as visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from these images.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site, you have the option to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. This is for your convenience so you won’t need to fill in your details again when leaving another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

Our site sets a temporary cookie to check if your browser accepts cookies when you visit our login page. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

Several cookies are set up to save your login information and screen display choices when you log in. Login cookies last for two days, while screen options cookies last for a year. If you choose “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. Logging out of your account will remove the login cookies.

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

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles, etc.). This content from other websites behaves exactly as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These sites 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.

Data Sharing

Your IP address will be included in the reset email if you request a password reset.

Data Retention

Comments and their associated metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can automatically recognize and approve follow-up comments, avoiding holding them in a moderation queue.

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

Your Data Rights

If you have an account on this site or have left comments, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided. You can also request the erasure of any personal data we hold about you. This does not include data we are required to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Data Transmission

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