Comments
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 assist with spam detection.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be sent to the Gravatar service to determine if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy can be found here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture will be visible to the public in the context of your comment.
Media
If you upload images to the website, avoid including embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the site can download and extract location data from images posted on the site.

If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to check if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
When you log in, we will also set up cookies to save your login details and screen display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. Selecting “Remember Me” will keep you logged in for two weeks. Logging out will remove the login cookies.

Articles on this site may include embedded content such as videos, images, or articles. Embedded content from other websites behaves as if the visitor has visited the external site. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content, including tracking your interactions if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
Who we share your data with
