Use of Google Analytics 4
Our website uses Google Analytics 4 to collect data about website traffic and user interactions. This tool helps us understand how visitors engage with our site, which allows us to improve our content and user experience. Google Analytics 4 collects information such as the number of visitors to our site, the pages they visit, and how long they stay on those pages.
The data collected by Google Analytics 4 is anonymized and does not include personally identifiable information. However, it does use cookies and other tracking technologies to collect data about your device and your interaction with our site.
If you wish to opt out of Google Analytics tracking, you can install the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on, which prevents the Google Analytics JavaScript (ga.js, analytics.js, and dc.js) from sharing information with Google Analytics about visit activity. For more information on the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on and how to install it, please visit: Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
Please note that opting out of Google Analytics does not affect your ability to use our site.
Embedded Content From Other 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.
Who We Share Your Data With
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
How Long We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment, the comment 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.
What Rights You Have Over Your Data
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where Your Data is Sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
