Data We Collect
Comments
When you leave comments on our site, we collect the data displayed in the comments form, your IP address, and browser user agent string to aid in spam detection. An anonymized string (hash) may be created from your email address and provided to the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. Following the approval of your comment, your profile picture becomes publicly visible in the context of your comment. For more details, the Gravatar service’s privacy policy is available here.

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid including embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors can download and extract any location data from images on the website.
Cookies
If you leave a comment on our site, you may opt-in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies for convenience, so you do not have to fill in your details again for future comments. These cookies last for one year.
Visiting our login page sets a temporary cookie to check if your browser accepts cookies, containing no personal data and discarded upon closing your browser. Logging in sets cookies to save your login info and screen display choices, with login cookies lasting two days and screen option cookies for a year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login persists for two weeks, removed upon logging out.
Editing or publishing an article sets an additional cookie in your browser, indicating the post ID of the article you just edited, expiring after 1 day.
Embedded Content
Articles on this site may include embedded content from other websites, which behaves as if the visitor has visited the source site directly. These sites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content, including tracking if you are logged in to that website.
Sharing and Retention of Your Data
Your data may be shared in specific instances, such as during a password reset request, where your IP address is included in the reset email.
Comments and their metadata are retained indefinitely for recognizing and approving follow-up comments automatically. For registered users, we store the personal information they provide in their profile, accessible and editable by the user at any time (username changes not permitted), while website administrators can also view and edit that information.
Your Rights 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 have provided. You can also request the erasure of any personal data we hold about you, excluding data we must retain for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
