Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data displayed in the comment form and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to facilitate spam detection.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) can be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you use it. The privacy policy of the Gravatar service can be found here: https://automattic.com/privacy. Once your comment has been approved, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the website can download and extract location data from images on the website.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our website, you can choose to save your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when leaving a new comment. These cookies last for one year.

If you visit our login page, we set a temporary cookie to determine whether your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and disappears when you close your browser.

When you log in, we will also create several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days and screen option cookies last for one year. If you choose “Remember me”, your login will be retained for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be deleted.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie is stored in your browser. This cookie contains no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after 1 day.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this website may contain embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in exactly the same way as if the visitor has 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 with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged into that website.

Who we share your data with

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

How long we keep your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are saved indefinitely. This is so that we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of keeping them in a queue for moderation.

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

What rights you have to your data

If you have an account on this website or have left comments, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including the data you have provided to us. You can also request that we delete any personal data we hold about you. This does not include data that we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal or security reasons.

Where your data is sent

Visitors’ comments can be checked by an automated spam detection service.
