Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help detect spam.

An anonymised version of your email address may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you have a profile image. You can view their privacy policy at: https://automattic.com/privacy. Once your comment is approved, your profile image may be visible to the public.

Media
If you upload images to the website, we recommend removing embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the site may be able to download and extract this information.

Cookies
If you leave a comment, you may choose to save your name, email address and website in cookies. This is for your convenience, so you do not have to re-enter your details the next time you leave a comment. These cookies last for one year.

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

When you log in, several cookies will be set to store your login information and screen display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will remain active for two weeks. If you log out, the login cookies will be removed.

If you edit or publish a page or article, an additional cookie may be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply stores the post ID of the item you edited. It expires after one day.

Embedded content from other websites
Articles or pages on this site may include embedded content, such as videos, images or maps. Embedded content from other websites behaves as if you had visited the other website directly.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, and track your interaction with their content, especially if you are logged in to their platform.

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
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are kept indefinitely, so we can recognise and approve any follow-up comments automatically.

If you register on the site (if applicable), your personal information is stored in your user profile. You can view, edit or delete your personal data at any time (except your username). Website administrators can also access and edit this information.

What rights you have over your data
You can request a copy of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also ask us to erase your personal data, unless we are required to keep it for legal, administrative or security reasons.
