Comments

Suggested text: When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comment form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser signature to help detect spam.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also known as a hash) may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if it is in use. The Gravatar privacy policy is available at: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is publicly visible in the context of your comment.

Media

Suggested text: If you are a registered user and upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF). Visitors to the website can download and extract full location data from images.

Cookies

Suggested text: If you leave a comment on the site, you may opt to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so you do not have to fill in your details again when leaving another comment. These cookies expire after one year.

If you visit the login page, we will 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 also set up several cookies to save your login information and screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login persists for two weeks. If you log out, login cookies are removed.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the edited article. It expires after one day.

Embedded content from other sites

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

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

Who we share your data with

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

How long we retain your data

Suggested text: If you leave a comment, its content and metadata are retained indefinitely. This helps us recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them for moderation.

For users who register on our website (if any), we also store personal information provided in their profile. Each user can view, edit, or delete their personal data at any time (except for their username, which cannot be changed). Website administrators can also view and edit this information.

What rights you have over your data

Suggested text: If you have an account or have left comments on this site, you can request an exported file of your personal data in our possession, including any data you have provided. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold. This does not include any data we are required to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
