Comments
When visitors write comments on the website, we collect the data displayed in the comment form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and the User-Agent string (which identifies the browser) to support spam detection.
An anonymized string (also called a hash) can be created from your email address and passed to the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. The privacy policy for the Gravatar service can be found here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After your comment is approved, your profile picture is publicly visible in the context of your comment.

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

Embedded content from other websites
Posts on this website may contain embedded content (e.g., videos, images, posts, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor had visited the other website.

How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
