What We Collect & Why
Comments
If you leave a comment, we collect the information you enter, along with your IP address and browser details to help prevent spam.
If you use a Gravatar, an anonymized version of your email may be sent to their service. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture (if linked to Gravatar) will be visible to the public alongside your comment.
Media
If you upload images, please avoid including location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors can download images from the site and may access any embedded location information.
Cookies
• If you leave a comment, you may choose to save your details in a cookie so you don’t have to re-enter them later. This lasts one year.
• Temporary cookies are used to check if your browser accepts them. These contain no personal data and are deleted when you close your browser.
• If you log in, cookies save your login and screen preferences. Login cookies last two days; screen cookies last a year. Selecting “Remember Me” keeps you logged in for two weeks. Logging out removes login cookies.
• If you edit or publish an article, an extra cookie is saved with the post ID. It expires after one day.
Embedded Content
Articles may include content from other sites (like videos or images). This content behaves as if you visited the other site, which may collect data, use cookies, and track your interaction.
