Comments

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

We use the Gravatar service to display profile pictures next to approved comments. An anonymized string (or hash) created from your email address may be sent to Gravatar to check if you are using the service. You can review Gravatar’s privacy policy at https://automattic.com/privacy/. After comment approval, your profile picture becomes visible to the public alongside your comment.
