User Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site, we gather the information shown in the comments form, along with the visitor's IP address and browser user agent string for spam prevention. An anonymized string generated from your email address (referred to as a hash) may be sent to the Gravatar service to verify if you use it. For details on the Gravatar service's privacy policy, visit https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture becomes visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media Uploads

If you upload images to the website, please avoid embedding location data (EXIF GPS) in them, as visitors can download and extract location data from these images.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site, you can opt to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. These cookies serve for your convenience, eliminating the need to re-enter your details when leaving another comment. These cookies have a one-year duration.

Upon visiting our login page, we set a temporary cookie to check if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie does not contain personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

Upon logging in, we create several cookies to store your login information and screen display preferences. Login cookies are active for two days, while screen options cookies last for a year. Choosing "Remember Me" will keep your login active for two weeks. Logging out of your account will remove the login cookies.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie is stored in your browser, containing no personal data and simply indicating the post ID of the edited article. This cookie expires after one day.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Our articles may feature embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles) from other websites, behaving similarly to if you visited the external website. These websites may collect data, use cookies, embed third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with embedded content, especially if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Data Sharing

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

Users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except for their username, which cannot be changed). Website administrators also have access to view and edit this information.
