What personal data we collect and why we collect it
Comments
When visitors write comments on the site, we collect the data displayed in the comment form, as well as the visitor's IP address and the user-agent string (this is how the browser is identified) to help detect spam.
From your email address, an anonymized string can be created (also called hash) and handed over to the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. The Gravatar Service's privacy policy can be found here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After your comment is shared, your profile picture is publicly visible in the context of your comment.
Media
If you are a registered user and upload photos to this website, you should avoid uploading photos with an EXIF GPS location. Visitors to this website could download photos stored on this website and extract their location information.

How long we store your data
When you write a comment, it is stored indefinitely, including metadata. This way, we can automatically recognize and share follow-up comments instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users who register on our website, we also store the personal information they provide in their user profiles. All users can view, modify or delete their personal information at any time (the username cannot be changed). Website administrators can also view and modify this information.

In addition, you can request the deletion of all personal data we have stored from you. This does not include the data we need to keep due to administrative, legal or security needs.
Where we send your data
