Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
An anonymized string (a hash) created from your email address may be shared with the Gravatar service to display a profile picture if you’re using it. Gravatar’s privacy policy
Cookies
If you leave a comment, you may opt in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. These are for your convenience and last for one year.
When you log in (for site admins), we also use temporary cookies to determine browser settings. These contain no personal data and are discarded when you close your browser.
Embedded content from other websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, or newsletter embeds). Embedded content from other websites behaves the same way as if you visited those websites directly.
These third-party sites may collect data about you, use cookies, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content — especially if you are logged into those services.
Who we share your data with
If you request a password reset (admin only), your IP address is included in the reset email.
How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are stored indefinitely so we can recognize and approve follow-ups automatically.
What rights you have over your data
If you’ve left comments, you can request an exported file of your personal data, or ask us to erase it. This doesn’t include data we’re obliged to keep for administrative or legal reasons.
Where your data is sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
