If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year
If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie does not contain any personal data and is discarded when you close your browser
When you sign in, we also set several cookies to save your login information and your display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for one year. You will be logged in for two weeks when you choose “remember me”, and if you log out of the account, the login cookies will be deleted
An additional cookie will be saved to your browser if you edit or publish an article. This file does not contain any personal data, it just refers to the ID of the article you edited. It will expire after one day
Articles on this site may include embedded content (eg videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in exactly the same way as if the visitor visited the other website
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with such embedded content, including tracking your interaction with embedded content if you have an account and are logged into that site
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata will be preserved indefinitely.
This is so that we can identify and automatically approve any follow-up comments instead of keeping them in a review queue for approval
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 they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit this information
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to have an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we delete any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data that we are obligated to keep for administrative, legal or security purposes
Visitor comments can be checked by an automated spam detection service
