What personal data we collect and why we collect it
Comments
When visitors leave comments, we collect data shown in the comment form, including the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to assist in spam detection. An anonymized string of your email address may be sent to the Gravatar service for profile picture display purposes.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
Media
If you upload images, avoid embedding location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors can extract such data if it is embedded.

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

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.
