What Personal Data We Collect and Why

Comments

When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect the information shown in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string. This helps us detect spam.

An anonymized string (hash) of your email may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. After approval of your comment, your profile picture may be visible publicly alongside your comment. You can review the Gravatar privacy policy here.

If you upload images to the website, please avoid including embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors can download and extract any location data from images you upload.
