Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help detect spam.
An anonymized string (hash) created from your email address may be shared with the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. You can read the Gravatar service’s privacy policy here: [https://automattic.com/privacy](https://automattic.com/privacy/). Once your comment is approved, your profile picture becomes visible to the public alongside your comment.
### Media

When you visit the login page, a temporary cookie will be set to check if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

### Embedded Content from Other Websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, or articles). Embedded content from other websites behaves the same way as if you visited those websites directly.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that content — including if you’re logged in to that external site.
### Who We Share Your Data With
If you request a password reset, your IP address may be included in the reset email.
### How Long We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely to help us automatically approve future comments.
For registered users (if any), we store the personal information provided in their profile. All users can view, edit, or delete their personal data (except usernames). Website administrators can also view and edit that information.
### What Rights You Have Over Your Data
If you have an account or have left comments, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you. You may also request that we delete your personal data. This excludes data we are required to retain for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
