Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data submitted in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
An anonymised string created from your email address (also called a hash) can be provided to the Gravatar service to verify that you are using it. The Gravatar service’s privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/.
Once your comment has been approved, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from the images on the website.

Embedded content from other websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in exactly the same way as if the visitor had visited the other website.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
Who we share your data with
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
If you send us a message, your request will be sent to the author who will reply to your message.
How long we keep your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so that we can automatically recognise and approve any subsequent comments, rather than keeping them in a moderation queue.
The data of all visitors who subscribe to our newsletter or the regular posting of articles will be kept until they decide to stop subscribing to our publications.
For users who register on our website (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). Website administrators can also view and edit this information.
What rights you have over your data
If you have an account on this site or have left comments or requested subscriptions, you can ask to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request the deletion of any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data that we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal or security purposes.
Where your data is sent
Visitor comments can be checked by an automatic spam detection service.
All emails sent to subscribers or users use the Mail Poet platform integrated into this site.
