Comments

When you leave a comment on our site, we collect the information you provide in the comment form, including your IP address and browser user agent string. This data helps us identify and prevent spam. We may also create an anonymized version of your email address to check if you have a Gravatar profile, as outlined in their privacy policy. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture (if available) will be displayed alongside it.

Media Uploads

If you upload images to our website, please ensure they do not contain any location data (EXIF GPS). Other visitors may be able to download and extract this location information from the images you upload.

Cookies

When you leave a comment, you can opt to save your name, email address, and website in cookies for future convenience. This prevents you from having to re-enter your details when posting comments again, and these cookies will remain active for one year. If you visit our login page, a temporary cookie will be set to verify if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie does not store personal data and will be deleted once you close your browser. After logging in, several cookies will be created to remember your login credentials and display preferences. Login cookies expire after two days, while display preference cookies last for one year. If you select the “Remember Me” option, your session will remain active for two weeks. Logging out will remove these login cookies. Additionally, when you edit or publish an article, an extra cookie will be stored in your browser to track the post ID of the article you edited; this cookie expires after one day.

Embedded Content from Other Sites

Our site may include embedded content such as videos, images, or articles from third-party websites. This content behaves as if you are visiting those external sites directly. These sites may collect data about you, use cookies, and track your interactions with their content, especially if you’re logged into their platform.

Data Sharing

If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the email we send for that purpose.

Data Retention

We retain comments and their associated metadata indefinitely to facilitate the automatic approval of future comments without manual moderation. For registered users (if applicable), we also store the personal information provided in their profiles. Users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time, except for their username which cannot be changed. Website administrators also have access to this data and can modify it as necessary.

Your Rights Regarding Your Data

If you have an account on our website or have left comments, you can request a file containing all the personal data we hold about you, including any information you’ve provided. You also have the right to request the deletion of your personal data, except for data that must be retained for legal or administrative reasons.

Data Transmission

Visitor comments may be subjected to automated analysis to detect unwanted content (spam). If you have any questions or requests regarding your personal data, please feel free to contact us!
