COMMENTS

When visitors add a comment to this site, the data displayed in the comment form is collected, as well as the visitor’s IP address and the user agent string that defines the browser, which helps to detect spam.

An anonymous string (also called a hash) can be provided to Gravatar to determine if you use the service. Gravatar’s privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After your comment is approved, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Visitor comments can be checked through an automated spam detection service that can be located abroad. Akismet’s anti-spam privacy policy can be found here: https://akismet.com/privacy/.
