When you leave a comment on our site, we collect the data shown in the comments form. Additionally, we collect your IP address and browser user agent string. We do this to help with spam detection.

After your comment is approved, your profile picture becomes visible to the public within the context of your comment.
If you upload images to our website, please avoid uploading images that include embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Therefore, website visitors can download and extract this location data from any images on the site.
We use cookies to enhance your experience and provide key functions. Specifically, we use them for the following purposes:
