Comments

When visitors leave comments on our website, we collect the information shown in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser information. This data helps us detect and prevent spam.

An anonymised string generated from your email address (also known as a hash) may be shared with the Gravatar service to check whether you use it. The Gravatar privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/.
Once your comment is approved, your profile picture (if applicable) may be visible publicly alongside your comment.

Website administrators may also access and edit this information as required for administration purposes.
