What Personal Data We Collect and Why We Collect It

Comments

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

We may provide an anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. You can find the Gravatar service privacy policy here. After we approve your comment, your profile picture will be visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Contact Forms and Emails

When you contact us via contact forms or email, we collect your name, email address, and any other information you provide to respond to your inquiries.

Cookies

We use cookies to enhance your browsing experience and analyze site traffic. By continuing to use our website, you consent to the use of cookies in accordance with our Cookie Policy.

Embedded Content

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if you visited the other website.

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

How Long We Retain Your Data

If you leave a comment, we retain the comment and its metadata indefinitely. This allows us to recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

What Rights You Have Over Your Data

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

Where We Send Your Data

We may check visitor comments through an automated spam detection service.

How We Protect Your Data

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorized or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction, or damage.
