3. Information We Collect We may collect the following types of information:
- Personal Information: Name, email address, contact details, payment information.
- Non-Personal Information: Browser type, IP address, website usage data.
4. 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 created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available at: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture will be visible to the public in the context of your comment.
5. Media If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract location data from the images posted on the site.
6. Cookies If you leave a comment on our site, you may opt-in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. These cookies are for your convenience, so you do not have to fill in your details again when leaving another comment. These cookies will last for one year.
If you visit our login page, a temporary cookie will be set to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
When you log in, several cookies will be set up to save your login information and screen display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, while screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out, the login cookies will be removed.
If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article just edited. It expires after one day.
7. Embedded Content from Other Websites Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor had visited the other website directly. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that content, including tracking interactions if you have an account and are logged into that website.
8. How Long We Retain Your Data If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely to help us recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them for moderation.
For users who register on our website (if applicable), we store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time, except for their username, which cannot be changed. Website administrators can also view and edit that information.
