Log Files
Like most websites, we use log files to track visitor activity. These log files record information including IP addresses, browser type, ISP, referring and exit pages, and date/time stamps. This information is used for analyzing trends, administering the site, tracking user movement around the site, and gathering demographic information. None of this information is linked to personally identifiable information.
Cookies and Web Beacons
Our website uses cookies to store information about visitors’ preferences and to record user-specific data on pages visited or accessed by the user.
Third-Party Advertising Cookies: Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user’s previous visits to this website and other websites on the internet. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to users based on their visit to our site and/or other sites on the internet.
Google AdSense: We use Google AdSense to display advertisements on our website. Google uses the DART cookie, which enables it to serve ads to our users based on their visit to our site and other sites on the internet.

You may choose to disable cookies through your individual browser settings. However, please note that disabling cookies may affect how you experience our website and limit certain functionalities.
Comments
When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help with spam detection.
An anonymized 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 here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
If you leave a comment on our site, you may opt-in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
When you log in, we will set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options 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.

Data Retention
We retain collected data only as long as necessary to provide you with our services, comply with legal obligations, or improve our website.
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This allows us to recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
