Cookies
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 a set period.
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 exactly as if the visitor has visited the other website.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Data Retention
If you leave a comment on the Website, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically, eliminating the need for them to be moderated.
For users that register on our Website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. Users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (username cannot be changed). Website administrators can also view and edit that information.
What Rights You Have Over Your Data

You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This excludes any data we are obligated to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where We Send Your Data
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service. This may involve sending information to our service providers which could include servers located outside of your country.
