Comments

When visitors write comments on the website, we collect the data shown in the comment form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and user-agent string (which identifies the browser) to support spam detection.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. You can find the Gravatar service’s privacy policy here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After your comment is approved, your profile picture is publicly visible in the context of your comment.

Media

If you are a registered user and upload photos to this website, you should avoid uploading photos with an EXIF GPS location. Visitors to this website could download and extract location information from photos stored on this website.

Cookies

If you write a comment on our website, it may be a consent to store your name, email address, and website in cookies. This is a convenience feature so that you do not have to enter all this information again when you write another comment. These cookies are stored for one year.

If you have an account and log in to this website, we will set a temporary cookie to determine 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 some cookies to save your login information and display options. Login cookies expire after two days, and display option cookies expire after one year. If you select “Remember Me” when logging in, your login will be maintained for two weeks. Logging out of your account will delete the login cookies.

When you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be stored in your browser. This cookie contains no personal data and only refers to the post ID of the article you are currently editing. The cookie expires after one day.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Posts on this website may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, posts, 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 services, and record your interaction with this embedded content, including your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to this website.

Who We Share Your Data With

If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.

How Long We Retain Your Data

When you write a comment, it is stored indefinitely, including metadata. This way, we can automatically recognize and approve follow-up comments instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

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

Your Rights Over Your Data

If you have an account on this website or have written comments, you can request an export of your personal data from us, including all the data you have provided to us. In addition, you can request the deletion of all personal data we have stored about you. This does not include data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where Your Data Is Sent

Visitor comments may be checked by an automated spam detection service.
