Use of collected personal data
Comments
When you leave a comment on our website, the data entered in the comment form, as well as your IP address and your browser’s user agent, are collected to help us detect unwanted comments.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. Gravatar’s privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After your comment is validated, your profile picture will be publicly visible next to your comment.
Media
If you are a registered user and upload images to the website, we advise you to avoid uploading images containing EXIF GPS coordinate data. Visitors to the website can download and extract location data from these images.
Contact forms
Our forms store the data you provide via a MailChimp platform. You can unsubscribe or edit your email preferences by clicking the links provided at the bottom of each of our emails.
We review our forms annually to delete “inactive” users, i.e., those who have not opened our emails for one year.
Cookies
If you leave a comment on our site, you may opt to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. This is solely for your convenience so you don’t have to re-enter this information for future comments. These cookies expire after one year.
When you visit the login page, a temporary cookie will be created to determine if your browser accepts cookies. It contains no personal data and will be deleted automatically when you close your browser.
When you log in, we set several cookies to save your login information and screen preferences. The lifespan of a login cookie is two days, and that of a screen option cookie is one year. If you check “Remember me,” your login cookie will be retained for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookie will be deleted.
When editing or publishing a post, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie contains no personal data and simply indicates the ID of the post you just edited. It expires after one day.
We also use Google Analytics cookies to help us understand your navigation.
You can review all our cookies and edit your Cookie preferences.
Content embedded from other sites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other sites behaves as if the visitor were visiting that other site.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies (as YouTube does), embed third-party tracking tools, and track your interactions with embedded content if you have an account logged into their website.
Data retention periods
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This allows us to recognize and approve subsequent comments automatically instead of keeping them in the moderation queue.
For users who register on our site (if applicable), we also store the personal data provided in their profile. All users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except for their username). Site administrators can also view and edit this information.
If you have been inactive for 3 years, we will delete your personal data.
Your rights over your data
If you have an account or have left comments on the site, you can request to receive a file containing all the personal data we hold about you, including the data you have provided. You can also request the deletion of your personal data. This does not include data stored for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Transmission of your personal data
We do not make transactional use of your data, meaning we do not sell our email database to third parties who might resell it to companies you have never interacted with.
Comments
Visitor comments may be checked using an automated spam detection service.
Payments
We use Stripe, PayPal, and Klarna for payments. We do not store any banking data on our server.
