What Personal Data We Collect and Why

Comments
When visitors leave comments, we collect the information provided in the comment form, including your IP address and browser user agent, to help detect spam.
We may share an anonymized version of your email (known as a hash) with the Gravatar service to check if you use it. You can read the Gravatar privacy policy here. After your comment is approved, your profile picture, if available, will be visible to the public alongside your comment.

Media
If you upload images to our site, please ensure they do not contain embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the site can download and extract location data from any images uploaded.

Contact Forms
When you submit a contact form, we collect the data you provide to respond to your inquiry. This information is used solely for communication purposes.

Cookies

• If you leave a comment, you can opt-in to save your name, email, and website in cookies for your convenience, so you won’t need to re-enter them next time. These cookies will last for one year.
• A temporary cookie is set when you visit our login page to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is deleted once you close your browser.
• When you log in, we will set cookies to store your login credentials and screen preferences. Login cookies last for two days, and screen preference cookies last for one year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. Logging out will remove the login cookies.
• If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie contains no personal data and simply tracks the ID of the post you edited. It expires after 24 hours.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on our site may include embedded content, such as videos, images, or articles from other websites. Embedded content from external websites behaves exactly as if the visitor is on the other site. These third-party websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interactions with the embedded content, especially if you have an account with them.

Analytics and Data Sharing

In case you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.

How Long We Retain Your Data

• If you leave a comment, both the comment and its metadata are stored indefinitely to automatically approve any follow-up comments instead of holding them in moderation.
• For registered users, we store personal information provided in their profiles. Users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (with the exception of changing usernames). Website administrators have access to manage this information as well.

Your Data Rights

If you have an account on our website or have left comments, you have the right to request an exported copy of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You may also request that we erase any personal data we hold, though this does not include any data we are obliged to retain for legal, administrative, or security purposes.

Where Your Data Is Sent

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