I. WHAT PERSONAL DATA DO WE COLLECT AND WHY

Comments – When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data displayed in the comment form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and the browser’s user agent string, to help detect spam.

An anonymized string created by your email address (also called a hash) can be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar privacy statement is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once your comment has been approved, your profile photo is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Embedded content from other websites – Articles on this site may include embedded content (such as videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the same way as if the visitor had visited the other website.

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

II. WITH WHOM WE SHARE YOUR DATA

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are saved indefinitely. This is so that we can automatically recognize and approve any subsequent comments, instead of queuing them for moderation.

For users who register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can view, edit or delete their personal data at any time (except that they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also view and edit this information.

III. WHAT RIGHTS DO YOU HAVE ON YOUR DATA

If you have an account on this site or have left comments, you may request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You may also request that we delete any personal information we hold about you. This does not include any data that we are required to store for administrative, legal or protective purposes.
