Privacy Policy

When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect their data to help avoid spam detection. This includes the information provided on the comments form, the visitor’s IP address, and browser user agent string.

If you choose to upload images to the website, please ensure that embedded location data (EXIF GPS) is not included. Please note that visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on our site.

If you leave a comment on our site, you have the option to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. This is for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last up to one year.

If you have an account and log in to this site, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and will be discarded when you close your browser.

We will also set up several cookies when you log in to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies will last for two days, and screen options cookies will last for one year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, 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 will only indicate the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after one day.

Articles on our site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.) that function as if the visitor has visited other websites. Please note that these websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed third-party tracking, and monitor your interactions with the embedded content, including tracing your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

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

For users who register on our website (if any), we will 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.

If you have an account on our site or have left comments, you have the right to request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You also have the right to 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.

Visitor comments may be checked through automated spam detection services for safety and security purposes.
