Comments

When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string. This information is collected to assist in spam detection and to maintain the integrity of our website.

Media

We strive to use only original or properly licensed media on this website. We take copyright seriously and make every effort to avoid the use of copyrighted material without permission. In the event that a copyrighted image is used, it will only be credited if the copyright owner explicitly agrees to be credited. If you believe any content on our site infringes your copyright, please contact us so we can address the issue promptly.

Cookies

When you leave a comment on our site, you may choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to re-enter your details when leaving another comment. These cookies will remain on your device for one year.

If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to check if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie does not contain any personal data and is deleted once you close your browser.

Upon logging in, we set up several cookies to store your login information and screen display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for one year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. Logging out will remove these login cookies.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be stored in your browser. This cookie contains no personal information and simply records the post ID of the article you edited. It expires after one day.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the same way as if you had visited the other website directly.

These external websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content. This may include tracking your activity with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website. We do not control the data collection practices of these third-party sites and recommend reviewing their privacy policies for more information.

Who we share your data with

If you request a password reset, your IP address may be included in the reset email. This is a security measure to help verify the legitimacy of the request and protect your account from unauthorized access.

How long we retain your data

When you leave a comment on our site, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can automatically recognize and approve any follow-up comments instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users who register on our website (if applicable), we store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time—except for their username, which cannot be changed. Website administrators also have access to view and edit this information.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site or have left comments, you may request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You also have the right to request the erasure of any personal data we hold about you.

Please note that this does not include any data we are required to retain for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where your data is sent

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service to help prevent spam and maintain the integrity of our website.
