When you leave a comment on our site, the data entered in the comment form, your IP address, and your browser’s user agent are collected to help detect unwanted comments.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After your comment is approved, your profile picture will be publicly visible next to your comment.

Media

If you upload images to the site, we advise you to avoid uploading images that contain GPS location data (EXIF). Visitors to the site can download and extract location data from these images.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site, you may choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. This is for your convenience so that you don’t have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies last for one year.

If you visit the login page, a temporary cookie will be created to determine if your browser accepts cookies. It contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in, several cookies will be set up to save your login information and screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen option cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data. It simply indicates 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 in the exact same way as if the visitor had visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Use and transmission of your personal data

If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.

Use of Personal Data for Communications

We may use the personal data you provide (such as your name and email address) to send you personalized emails and updates about our latest news, services, or training programs. These communications may include information we believe is relevant to your interests.

You will receive these emails only if you have given your explicit consent, and you can unsubscribe at any time by clicking the “unsubscribe” link included in our emails or by contacting us directly.

We do not share your email address or personal data with third parties for their own marketing purposes without your consent.

Data retention periods

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users who register on our site (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

Your rights over your data

If you have an account or have left comments on the site, you can request to receive a file containing all the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided. You can also request the deletion of your personal data. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where your data is sent

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
