Comments and Privacy Policy

When you leave a comment on our website, we collect the information shown in the comments form. We also record your IP address and browser details to help prevent spam.

When uploading images to our website, please remove any embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Other visitors can download images and may extract location details if they exist.

Cookies Used Under This Privacy Policy

If you leave a comment, you can choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. These cookies make future visits easier and remain active for one year.

When you visit the login page, we place a temporary cookie to check whether your browser accepts cookies.

This cookie does not store personal data and disappears when you close your browser.

 

After you log in, we save cookies for login details and screen settings. Login cookies last two days, while screen preference cookies remain for one year. Selecting “Remember Me” keeps you logged in for two weeks. Logging out removes login cookies.

 

When you publish or edit an article, your browser stores a cookie showing the post ID. This cookie expires after one day and contains no personal data.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Who we share your data with

If you request a password reset, we include your IP address in the reset email to keep your account secure.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where your data is sent

We may check visitor comments through automated spam detection services to protect our website.
