Information We Collect
When you submit information through contact forms on our site, we collect the personal information you provide, such as your name, email address, company name, and any message details you include.
We may also collect non-personal information such as your IP address, browser type, and device information for website analytics and spam protection purposes.
Comments
If you leave comments on our site (e.g., under articles or blog posts), we collect the data shown in the comments form, your IP address, and browser user agent string to help detect and prevent spam.
An anonymized string created from your email address (a “hash”) may be provided to the Gravatar service to determine if you are using it. The Gravatar service’s privacy policy is available at https://automattic.com/privacy/.
After your comment is approved, your profile picture (if available) is visible to the public alongside your comment.
Media
If you upload images to the website, please avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included, as visitors to the site may be able to extract such information.
Cookies
We use cookies to enhance your experience on our site. For example, if you leave a comment, you may opt-in to saving your name, email, and website in cookies for your convenience. These cookies last for one year.
Additionally, we may set temporary cookies to check if your browser accepts cookies, and cookies to save login preferences if you access any protected or administrative areas of the site.
You can control cookie settings through your web browser.
Embedded Content from Other Websites
Articles and pages on this site may include embedded content (e.g., YouTube videos, images, articles). Embedded content behaves the same way as if you had visited the external website directly.
These external websites may collect data about you, use cookies, and track your interaction with their content, especially if you are logged into their platform.
Analytics
We may use third-party analytics services to monitor and analyze website traffic. These services collect non-identifiable information, such as browser type, time spent on pages, and referral sources, to help us improve our site and services.
Who We Share Your Data With
We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to others.
We may share your data with trusted service providers who help us operate our website (such as spam detection services), but only to the extent necessary for them to perform their services.
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
How Long We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely to recognize and approve any future follow-up comments automatically.
For users who register (if registration becomes available), we will store the personal information they provide in their user profile.
Your Rights Over Your Data
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you.
You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold, excluding any data we are obligated to retain for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
To exercise your rights, please contact [email protected] or use the contact form on our website.
Where Your Data Is Sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
