What Data We Gather

We may collect the following types of information when you interact with our website:

• Contact form submissions including your name, email address, and message content
• Your IP address and browser user agent string, collected automatically to help prevent spam
• An anonymized string created from your email address may be provided to the Gravatar service to check for a profile image

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any third party for marketing purposes.

Visitor Comments

When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect the data shown in the comment form, as well as the visitor's IP address and browser user agent string to help prevent spam. An anonymized string created from your email address may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available at gravatar.com. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.

Uploaded Images

If you upload images to the website, please avoid including images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors can extract location data from those images, so it is important to ensure they do not contain sensitive information. We recommend stripping metadata from any images before uploading them to the site.

How We Use Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site, you may opt in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. These cookies are for your convenience so you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies last for one year.

If you have an account and you log in to this site, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser. When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select "Remember Me," your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on our site may include embedded content, such as videos or images. Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if you have visited those websites directly. These sites 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. We do not otherwise share your personal information with third parties except as required by law or as necessary to provide our services.

We use industry-standard tools such as Google Analytics and similar services to analyze website traffic. These services may collect anonymized usage data in accordance with their own privacy policies.

How Long We Retain Your Data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users who register on our website, we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time, except they cannot change their username. Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

What Rights You Have Over Your Data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request 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 that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at [email protected].

Where Your Data Is Sent

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service. Our website is hosted and operated in the United States. If you are accessing our website from outside the United States, please be aware that your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in the United States.

How We Protect Your Data

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
