Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data entered in the comment form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to aid in spam detection.
An anonymized string derived from your email address (a hash) may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you’re using it. The Gravatar service’s privacy policy is available here. After your comment is approved, your profile picture (if linked to Gravatar) will be visible to the public within your comment.
