Embedded Content

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.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracing your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Comments, Subscriptions & Contact Form

If you leave a comment, you will be required to leave your email address. We will not disclose that information to any other third party unless specifically requested. If you subscribe, you will be providing us with your email address as well, rest assured it will not be shared with a third party either. Your email address left in comments or through a subscription is available to WordPress, who is responsible for hosting our website. We are not responsible for what WordPress or affiliated services choose to do with this information.

When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection. Your website’s name address may also be collected but only if you chose to disclose it as it is voluntary and not required to leave a comment.

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.

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: Automattic Privacy Policy. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

If you use our contact form, you will also be required to leave your email address and for spam detection purposes, we will also collect your IP address. Other voluntary but non-required information, such as your name or website address, will be collected only if you provide it.

Automattic also collects data through Jetpack for purposes of monitoring traffic flow and behavior on the website (Same privacy policy linked above).

Our website also uses AMP, here is their privacy policy.
