When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, as well as the visitor's IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy can be found here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After your comment is approved, your profile photo will be publicly visible as part of your comment.

Cookies
If you leave a comment on our website you may opt-in to saving 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 last for a year.
When you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine whether your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is deleted when you close your browser.
When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your connection information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days and screen options cookies last for one year. If you select “Remember me,” your connection will remain active for two weeks. If you log out of your account, login cookies will be deleted.
When you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie is stored in your browser. This cookie contains no personal data and simply indicates the publication ID of the article you just edited. It expires after 1 day.
Embedded content from other websites
Articles on this website may contain embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves exactly as if the visitor had visited the other website.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
Who do we share your data with?
Suggested text: When you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
How long do we keep your data?
When you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users who register on our website, we may also store the personal data they provide in their user profile. All users can view, edit or delete their personal information at any time (except that they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also view and edit this information.
What rights do you have over your data?
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we delete any personal data we hold about you. This does not apply to data that we are obliged to retain for administrative, legal or security reasons.
Where your data is sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
