What personal data we collect and why we collect it
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, the visitor’s IP address, and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
An anonymized string created from your email address (a hash) may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you’re using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available at https://automattic.com/privacy/. After your comment is approved, your profile picture becomes publicly visible.
Media
If you upload images to the website, please avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS), as visitors can download and extract location data from them.
Contact forms
If you submit a contact form, we collect your name and email address. These submissions are stored for up to 6 months for customer service purposes only. We do not use this data for marketing.
