What Personal Data We Collect and Why We Collect It

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data provided in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string. This data helps us in detecting and reducing spam. If you use the Gravatar service, an anonymized string created from your email address (a “hash”) may be provided to check whether you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available at https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture (if applicable) will be visible to the public within the context of your comment.

Media

If you upload images to our website, please ensure they do not contain embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images that are publicly accessible.

Cookies

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content behaves the same way as if you visited the originating website. These external sites may collect data, use cookies, and embed additional third-party tracking. They may also monitor your interactions with the embedded content, especially if you are logged in to their platform.

How Long We Retain Your Data

All registered users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except for their username, which cannot be changed).
