Comments
When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, including the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help with spam detection. An anonymized string created from the visitor’s email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if the visitor is using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of the comment, the visitor’s profile picture is visible to the public in the context of the comment.
Media: If visitors upload images to our website, they should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to our website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.
Cookies
If a visitor leaves a comment on our site, they may opt-in to saving their name, email address, and website in cookies. These are for the visitor’s convenience so they don’t have to fill in their details again when they leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.
This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when the visitor closes their browser.
When a visitor logs in, we will also set up several cookies to save their login information and their screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If the visitor selects “Remember Me”, their login will persist for two weeks. If the visitor logs out of their account, the login cookies will be removed.
If a visitor edits or publishes an article, an additional cookie will be saved in their browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article they just edited. It expires after 1 day.
Embedded content from other websites
Articles on our site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.
These websites may collect data about the visitor, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor their interaction with that embedded content, including tracking their interaction with the embedded content if the visitor has an account and is logged in to that website.

If a visitor requests a password reset, their IP address will be included in the reset email.
