Information We Collect

When visitors leave comments on our website, we collect the data provided in the comments form, including the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string. This information aids in spam detection and moderation. Additionally, an anonymized hash generated from your email address may be sent to the Gravatar service to determine if you have a profile picture associated with it.

If you upload images to the website, we advise against including images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS), as visitors can potentially extract this data from images on the website.

Cookies may be used to save your name, email address, and website when you leave a comment, providing convenience for subsequent interactions. Temporary cookies are also set on the login page to verify whether your browser accepts cookies. Login-related cookies help retain your login information and screen preferences, while an article-editing cookie is stored temporarily after editing or publishing an article.

Embedded content from external websites may collect data, employ cookies, and track user interactions in line with the embedded content provider’s policies.
