What Personal Data We Collect and Why

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the website, we collect the data shown in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string. This helps us detect spam and keep the site secure.

An anonymised string (hash) created from your email address may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you use it. The Gravatar privacy policy is available at https://automattic.com/privacy/. After your comment is approved, your profile picture may be visible publicly alongside your comment.

Media

If you upload images to the website, please avoid uploading images that include embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the website may be able to download and extract location data from images.

Contact Forms

If you contact us through the website, we collect the information you provide so we can respond to your enquiry. This information is not used for marketing unless you have explicitly agreed.

Cookies

This website uses cookies to improve your experience.

• If you leave a comment, you may opt in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for convenience and last for one year.
• A temporary cookie is set when you visit the login page to check if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is removed when you close your browser.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Pages on this website may include embedded content such as videos or images. Embedded content behaves in the same way as if you visited the other website directly.

These third-party websites may collect data about you, use cookies, and track your interaction with their content, especially if you are logged into their services.

Who We Share Your Data With

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

How Long We Retain Your Data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely so we can recognise and approve follow-up comments automatically.

If users register on the website (if applicable), we store the personal information provided in their user profile. Users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time, except their username. Website administrators can also access and edit this information.
