Comments

When visitors leave comments on our website, we collect the data provided in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string. This helps us effectively detect and prevent spam.

An anonymized string (hash) created from your email address may be shared with the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. You can find the Gravatar service privacy policy here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture will be visible to the public alongside your comment.
