What Personal Data We Collect and Why

Comments:
When visitors leave comments, we collect the data shown in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help detect spam. An anonymized string from your email address may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you use it. After comment approval, your profile picture is visible to the public alongside your comment.

Media:
If you upload images, avoid including embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors can download and extract location data from images on the site.

We collect information you provide via contact forms for customer service purposes and do not use it for marketing unless you opt-in.
