Cookies

When you comment on our site, you can choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. This spares you the hassle of re-entering your information each time you leave a comment. The stored cookies have a duration of one year for your convenience.

When you access our login page, a temporary cookie is set to check if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie does not store any personal information and is deleted when you close your browser.

When you log in, we’ll set up various cookies to store your login information and screen preferences. Login cookies last for two days, while screen option cookies are active for a year. Choosing “Remember Me” will keep you logged in for two weeks. Logging out will delete the login cookies.

Incorporating content sourced from external 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 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.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a review, the content 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 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 they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

If you own an account on our site or have posted comments, you have the right to ask for a copy of the personal data we possess about you. This includes the information you shared with us. You can also request the deletion of any personal data we have. Please note that this excludes data we must retain for administrative, legal, or security reasons.
