Who We Are

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to assist with spam detection.

An anonymized string derived from your email address (a hash) may be shared with the Gravatar service to determine if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture (if any) will be visible to the public alongside your comment.

Media

If you upload images to the website, avoid including embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the site can download and extract location data from uploaded images.
