What Personal Data We Collect and Why We Collect It
1. Comments
When visitors leave comments on the website, we collect the information provided in the comment form, the visitor's IP address, and the browser's user-agent information—which helps detect spam.
An anonymized string created from your email address may be sent to the Gravatar service (to verify whether you use Gravatar).
If your comment is approved, your profile picture will be publicly visible with the comment.
2. Media
If you upload images to the website, it is recommended that you do not upload images with location data (EXIF GPS). This is because visitors can download and collect location data from those images.
3. Cookies
When you leave a comment, you will have the option to save your name, email, and website address in cookies—which will last for up to 1 year.
A temporary cookie is set on the login page to verify whether the browser accepts cookies. It will be deleted when you close the browser.
Login cookies last for 2 days, and screen settings cookies last for 1 year.
Selecting “Remember Me” will keep you logged in for 2 weeks.
When you edit or publish a post, a cookie is set that contains the post ID—it expires after 1 day.
4. Embedded Content from Other Websites
Our website may contain embedded content such as videos, images, articles, etc.
These external websites may collect information about you, use cookies, use third-party tracking, and if you are logged in to that site, track your interactions with them.
5. Who we share your data with
If you request a password reset, your IP address may be included in the reset email.
6. How long your data is kept
Your comments and associated metadata are kept indefinitely, so that future comments can be easily approved.
Users who register on our website have their personal information stored in their user profile.
Users can edit or delete their information (except username) at any time.
Website administrators are also able to view and edit this information.
7. Your rights regarding your data
If you have an account or have left comments, you can:
receive an exported copy of the information we hold about you

However, this does not include data that is required to be stored for administrative, security or legal reasons.
