Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help detect spam.

An anonymized string (hash) created from your email address may be provided to the Gravatar service to check if you’re using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture is visible to the public alongside your comment.
