Comments

When visitors leave comments, we collect the data shown in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help with spam detection.

An anonymized hash created from your email address may be sent to the Gravatar service to see if you use it. The Gravatar privacy policy is here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture (if any) is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media

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

Cookies

If you leave a comment, you may opt-in to saving your name, email, and website in cookies for convenience. These cookies last one year.

If you visit our login page, a temporary cookie determines if your browser accepts cookies. It contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in, we set cookies to save login info and screen preferences. Login cookies last two days; screen option cookies last a year. Selecting “Remember Me” keeps your login for two weeks. If you log out, those cookies are removed.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved. It includes no personal data and simply shows the post ID. It expires after one day.

Embedded Content From Other Websites

Articles may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, social media feeds). Embedded content behaves as if you visited the other website directly.

Those sites may collect data, use cookies, embed third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content, including if you have an account and are logged into that site.

Analytics & Third Party Services

We use basic analytics tools (such as Google Analytics) to understand how visitors use the site. This may collect anonymized information about your device, browser, and browsing patterns.

We may also use Pinterest embeds, social media share buttons, and advertising networks. These services may collect data in accordance with their own privacy policies.

Who We Share Your Data With

If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email. We do not sell or share your personal data with third parties for marketing.

How Long We Retain Your Data

If you leave a comment, the comment and metadata are retained indefinitely to recognize and approve follow-ups automatically.

If users register on this site (if applicable), we store personal information in their profile. Users can view, edit, or delete their data at any time (except usernames). Site administrators can also see and edit that information.

What Rights You Have Over Your Data

If you have an account or have left comments, you can request an exported file of your personal data. You can also request deletion of any personal data we hold. This does not include data we are required to keep for administrative, legal, or security reasons.

Where Your Data Is Sent

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