Comments

When you leave a comment on our site, we collect the data shown in the comment form, along with your IP address and browser details, to help detect spam.
An anonymised version of your email address may be shared with the Gravatar service to check if you use it. Their privacy policy is available here: Gravatar Privacy Policy.
Once your comment is approved, your profile picture (if available) will be visible alongside your comment.

Media

If you upload images to our website, avoid including location data (EXIF GPS). Other visitors can potentially download and extract this information from uploaded images.

Cookies

We use cookies to improve your experience on our site:

  • If you leave a comment, your name, email, and website may be saved in cookies for your convenience — so you don’t have to re-enter them later. These last for one year.

  • A temporary cookie is used to check if your browser accepts cookies when visiting our login page. It is deleted when you close your browser.

  • When logging in, we set cookies to store your login details and screen display preferences:

    • Login cookies last for two days.

    • “Remember Me” keeps you logged in for two weeks.

    • Screen preference cookies last for one year.

  • If you edit or publish content, a cookie will store the post ID — it expires after one day.

Embedded Content

Some pages may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, or articles). These behave exactly like if you visited the other website directly.
These sites may collect data about you, use cookies, and monitor your interactions, especially if you’re logged in to that site.

Who We Share Your Data With

If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.

How Long We Keep Your Data

  • Comments and their metadata are stored indefinitely to help us approve future comments faster.

  • For registered users (if any), we store the personal info provided in your profile. You can view, edit, or delete this info anytime — except for your username. Site admins can also access and edit this information.

Your Rights Over Your Data

If you have an account or have left comments, you can request a copy of your data or ask us to delete it. This does not include any data we’re required to keep for legal, administrative, or security reasons.

Where Your Data Goes

Visitor comments may be screened through an automated spam detection service.

Caching

We use LiteSpeed Cache and QUIC.cloud to improve site performance. These services may temporarily store copies of website pages to speed up your experience. Cache files are temporary and not accessed by third parties (except as required for technical support). Learn more: QUIC.cloud Privacy Policy
