Comments

Recommended Text: When visitors will leave comments on the website, 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 string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is publicly visible in the context of your comment.

Media

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

Cookies

Recommended text: If you leave a comment on our website, you may opt to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

When you visit our login page, we set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in, we set several cookies to save your login information and display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, and cookies for screen settings last for one year. If you select “Stay logged in,” your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.

When you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be stored in your browser. This cookie contains no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you are editing. It expires after one day.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Recommended text: Posts on this website may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, posts, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor had visited the other website.

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

Who do we share your data with?

Recommended text: If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.

How long do we store your data?

Recommended text: If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are stored indefinitely. This allows us to automatically recognize and approve follow-up comments instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

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

What rights do you have over your data?
Recommended text: If you have an account on this website or have left comments, you can request an exported file of your personal data that we hold, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
