Cookies
Our website uses cookies to enhance user experience. Here’s how:
- Comments: If you leave a comment, you may opt-in to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. This is for your convenience so that you don’t have to re-enter your details when you leave another comment. These cookies last for one year.
- Login: If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. These cookies contain no personal data and are discarded when you close your browser. When you log in, we will set up cookies to save your login information and screen preferences. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for one year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out, the login cookies will be removed.
- Article Editing: If you edit or publish an article, a cookie will be stored in your browser. This cookie does not contain personal data and simply records the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after one day.
Embedded Content from Other Websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves as if the visitor has visited the other website. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content.
Who We Share Your Data With
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email. We do not share your personal information with third parties, except in the following cases:
- To comply with legal obligations.
- To detect and prevent fraud or security issues.
- With third-party service providers (e.g., payment processors) as necessary to complete transactions.
How Long We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This allows us to automatically approve follow-up comments instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users who register on our website, we store the personal information provided in their user profile. Users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
Your Data Rights
