What we collect: When you drop a comment, we grab the info from the comment form plus your IP address and browser details (this helps us catch spam bots).

Profile pics: We might use Gravatar to show your profile picture with comments. Check out Gravatar’s privacy policy for their details.

Visibility: Once your comment is approved, your profile pic becomes public with that comment.

Pro tip: If you upload images, make sure they don’t have location data (EXIF GPS) embedded. Anyone can download images from the site and potentially extract that location info.

Sometimes we embed videos, images, or content from other sites. When this happens, those other websites might collect data about you, use their own cookies, or track your interactions.

Basically: If you interact with embedded content, it’s like you visited that other website directly.

Password resets: If you request a password reset, your IP address gets included in the reset email.

That’s it. We don’t sell your data or share it with random third parties.

Comments: Kept indefinitely so we can auto-approve your future comments instead of making you wait in moderation.

User profiles: If you register, we store your profile info. You can edit or delete most of it anytime (username is permanent though).

Admin access: Website admins can see and edit user information for site management.

Your comments might get checked by automated spam detection services. That’s about it for data sharing.
