Cookies

A cookie is a string of information stored by a website when a visitor browses the site. Cookies help us identify and track visitors, their use of our website and their website access preferences. Visitors who do not wish to have cookies placed on their computers should set their browsers to refuse cookies before using our website.

Contact forms, comments, Gravatars and embedded content

Information submitted on contact forms – such as names, phone number and email addresses – may be retained in our files unless or until we are asked to remove it.  However, this data will not be used for marketing purposes without your explicit consent.

When visitors leave comments on the site, for example on a blog, we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection. You may also opt-in to saving your name, email address and website when you comment. These cookies will last for no more than one year.

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

An anonymous string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available at https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Articles on this site may include embedded content such as videos, images, articles, etc. Embedded content from other websites behaves in exactly the same way as if the visitor has 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 with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Registered users

For users that register on our website (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 username, which cannot be changed). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to track user interactions on our website, which may collect data such as IP addresses, location and cookies for behaviour profiling.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request details of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
