Comments
Your interaction and feedback on our platform are always welcome. When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, including the visitor's IP address and browser user agent string, which assists us in spam detection.
When you choose to comment, an anonymized string (or hash) created from your email address may be provided to the Gravatar service to check its usage. The Gravatar service privacy policy is accessible here. Upon approval of your comment, your profile picture will be visible to the public, adding to the context of your comment.
Media
For those who share their knowledge and expertise through images on our platform, we strongly recommend avoiding the upload of images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS). This is because the location data can be downloaded and extracted by visitors to the website.
