What personal data we collect and why we collect it

We collect various types of personal data to enhance user experience, ensure security, and fulfill administrative or legal obligations. This policy outlines the types of data we collect, how we use it, and how you can control your data.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect data shown in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to assist in spam detection and to ensure secure interactions. An anonymized string created from your email address (also known as a hash) may be sent to the Gravatar service to verify if you are a registered user. The Gravatar service privacy policy can be found here. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture will be visible to the public alongside your comment.
