Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comment form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser data, to help detect spam.

An anonymized string of characters generated from your email (also called a hash) may be sent to Gravatar to check if you are using the service. Gravatar’s privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After your comment is approved, your profile picture becomes publicly visible alongside your comment.

Embedded Media from Other Sites

Articles on this site may include embedded content such as videos, images, articles, etc. Embedded content from other sites behaves exactly as if the visitor were visiting the other site.

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

How Long We Retain Your Data

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

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