What this site collects personal data and why we collect it

comment

When visitors leave a comment on this site, we collect data from the comment form, as well as an IP address and browser user agent string to help us detect spam.

The anonymized (also known as a “hash”) string generated from your email address may be provided to the service to help it determine if you are using the Gravatar service. The privacy policy of the service can be found at https://automattic.com/privacy/. If your comment is approved, your profile picture will be posted to the public with your comment.

Media

When you upload images to the site, you should not upload images that contain location information (EXIF GPS). Your visitors can download the images from the site and extract the location data.

Cookies

When you leave a comment on the site, you can opt-in to having your name, email address and site stored as a cookie. This is for your convenience and saves you from having to re-enter your details when leaving other comments. This cookie will be kept for one year.

When you visit the login page, we set a temporary cookie to help your browser determine whether it can accept cookies. These cookies do not contain personal data and are discarded when you close your browser.

In addition, we set a number of cookies to retain login and screen display information when you log in. The login cookie is kept for 2 days and the screen display options cookie is kept for 1 year. If you select ‘Remember me’, the login information is kept for 2 weeks. Logging out will erase the login cookies.

If you edit or publish a post, an additional cookie will be stored in your browser. This cookie does not contain any personal data, it simply indicates the identity of the post you have modified.

Embedded content from other sites

Posts on this site may contain embedded content (e.g., videos, images, posts, etc.). Embedded content from other sites behaves exactly as if the visitor were visiting the site.

These sites may collect your data, use cookies, embed additional tracking by third parties, and monitor your interactions with embedded content. This includes tracking your interactions with embedded content if you are logged in to the site using your account.

How long to store the data

When you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata will be retained indefinitely. This is so that we can automatically recognize and approve follow-up comments instead of keeping them in the moderation queue.

If you are a registered user of this site, we will store the personal information you provide on your user profile page. All users can view, edit or delete their personal information (but they cannot change their user name). The site administrators can also view and edit your personal information.

Your Right to Data

If you have an account on this site or have left a comment on the site, you can make a request to receive the personal data we hold about you (including all data you have provided) as an export file. You can also make a request to have your personal data erased. This does not include data that we are obliged to retain for administrative, legal or security purposes.

Where to send your data

Comments made by visitors may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
