Privacy policy

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comment form, the visitor's IP address and browser user agent string to help detect spam.

An anonymised string created from your email address (this is also called a hash) may be sent to the Gravatar service if you use it. The privacy policy page of 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.

Media

When uploading images to the site, avoid uploading images with location data embedded in them (EXIF GPS). Site visitors can download and extract all location data from images on the site.

Cookies

When you leave a comment on our site, you can specify whether your name, e-mail address and site may be stored in a cookie. We do this for your convenience so you don't have to re-enter these details for a new comment. These cookies are valid for one year.

If you visit our login page, we store a temporary cookie to check whether your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is deleted as soon as you close your browser.

When you log in, we will also set some cookies to store your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days and screen settings cookies last for one year. If you select "Remember me", your login will last for a fortnight. When you log out of your account, the login cookies are deleted.

When you edit or publish a post, an additional cookie is stored by your browser. This cookie does not contain any personal data and only holds the message ID of the article you edited. This cookie expires after one day.

Embedded content from other sites

Posts on this site may contain embedded content (e.g. videos, images, messages, etc.). Embedded content from other sites behaves exactly as if the visitor had visited this other site.

These sites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking and monitor your interaction with this embedded content, including recording your interaction with embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that site.

How long we keep your data

When you leave a comment, that comment and its metadata are stored forever. This way, we can automatically recognise and approve follow-up comments instead of having to moderate them.

For users who register on our site (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can view, edit or delete their personal information at any time (except that they cannot change their username). Site administrators can also view and edit this information.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site or you have left comments, you can request an export file of your personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we delete all the personal data we hold about you, except for the data we are required to keep for administrative, legal or security purposes.

Where your data will be sent

Visitor responses may be monitored through an automated spam detection service.
