Comments
When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect the data shown in the comment form along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent to help prevent spam.
An anonymized hash of your email address may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you use it. The Gravatar privacy policy is available at https://automattic.com/privacy/.
Once your comment is approved, your profile image (if applicable) becomes visible to the public alongside your comment.
Media
If you upload images to our website, please avoid including embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the site can download and extract location data from publicly available images.
Cookies
If you leave a comment, you may choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies for convenience – so you don’t need to re-enter your details next time. These cookies last for one year.
When visiting our login page, a temporary cookie checks if your browser accepts cookies. It does not store personal data and is removed when you close your browser.
Login cookies last for two days, screen preference cookies for one year, and the “Remember Me” option keeps you logged in for two weeks. Logging out removes these cookies automatically.
If you edit or publish an article, a cookie will be stored in your browser containing the post ID – it expires after one day and includes no personal data.
Embedded Content
Our pages may include embedded content such as videos, images, or articles. Embedded content from other websites behaves the same way as if you visited those websites directly.
These third-party sites may collect data, use cookies, or track your interaction with embedded material — especially if you have an account and are logged in to those sites.
Data Sharing
If you request a password reset, your IP address may be included in the reset email.
Data Retention
Comments and their metadata are retained indefinitely to recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically.
For registered users, we store the personal information provided in their profile. Users can view, edit, or delete their information at any time (except usernames). Website administrators can also access and update this data.
Your Rights
If you have an account or have left comments, you can request an exported file of your personal data or ask us to erase it. This excludes data we are legally required to keep for administrative or security reasons.
Data Processing
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
