Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also 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 is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media

When uploading images to our website, it’s highly recommended to avoid including embedded location data (EXIF GPS) within them. These data can contain geographical details, such as the exact location where the image was captured. This information, when included, can potentially be extracted by visitors accessing the images on the website. Therefore, as a precautionary measure to maintain user privacy and security, it’s advised to ensure that any uploaded images don’t contain this embedded location data.

Visitors exploring the site might have the ability to download and extract data associated with the images, which could potentially include geographical details. To safeguard the privacy of individuals and prevent the unintentional sharing of personal location information, it’s prudent to review and eliminate any embedded location data within images before uploading them to our platform.

Ensuring that images are devoid of such embedded data is a proactive step in protecting the confidentiality and privacy of both our users and visitors to the website. This practice aligns with our commitment to maintaining a secure and respectful online environment for everyone interacting with our platform.

Cookies

When you choose to leave a comment on our website, there’s an option available where you can choose to save certain information like your name, email address, and website by using cookies. These cookies are designed to enhance your experience by saving your details, ensuring you won’t have to re-enter them every time you leave a comment. The convenience of these cookies lasts for one year.

Upon visiting our login page, we set a temporary cookie to verify whether your browser accepts cookies. This cookie, containing no personal data, is temporary and gets deleted once you close your browser.

Once logged in, our system configures several cookies to remember your login information and your preferred screen display settings. Login cookies persist for two days, while screen option cookies remain active for a year. Opting for the “Remember Me” feature keeps your login active for two weeks. Logging out removes these login cookies.

Furthermore, when you edit or publish an article, another cookie is stored in your browser. This particular cookie doesn’t contain personal data; it simply notes the article’s post ID that you’ve recently edited. Its validity extends for one day, after which it expires. These cookies serve to personalize and expedite your experience on our website, ensuring a more user-friendly interaction.

Embedded content from other websites

Content featured in articles on this website might involve embedded materials like videos, images, or articles sourced from external websites. When you engage with such embedded content, it functions similarly to your visit to the original website.

These external websites might gather information about your browsing activities, employ cookies, integrate additional third-party tracking mechanisms, and observe your interactions with the embedded content. This tracking extends to your interactions with the embedded content if you’re logged in to that website. It’s important to note that these actions by external websites are governed by their respective privacy policies and data collection practices, which may differ from ours.

Who we share your data with

When seeking a password reset, your IP address gets included in the email for resetting purposes. This measure is implemented to ensure the security and validation of your password reset request by cross-referencing it with the IP address provided. This IP inclusion aids in verifying the legitimacy of the reset attempt, enhancing security protocols associated with password changes.

How long we retain your data

When comments are posted, both the comment and its associated metadata remain stored indefinitely. This prolonged retention enables automatic recognition and approval of subsequent comments, streamlining the moderation process.

For registered users on our website, their provided personal data is securely stored in their user profile. This allows all users the ability to access, modify, or delete their personal information anytime, maintaining control over their data. However, the username cannot be altered, and website administrators possess the capability to view and edit this information for administrative purposes.

What rights you have over your data

If you’ve registered an account or left comments, you have the right to ask for an exported file containing your personal data in our possession. This file encompasses any information you’ve shared with us. Additionally, you’re entitled to request the deletion of your personal data from our records. However, this doesn’t cover any data we’re obligated to retain for administrative, legal, or security reasons.
