What Personal Data We Collect and Why We Collect It
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help detect spam.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to determine 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.
Media
If you upload images to the website, avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.
Cookies
- Comments: 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 you do not have to fill in your details again when leaving another comment. These cookies will last for one year.
- Login Page: A temporary cookie is set to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
- Logged-in Users: When you log in, we set cookies to save your login information and screen display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for one year. Selecting “Remember Me” extends your login persistence to two weeks. Logout removes the login cookies.
- Article Editing: If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie is saved in your browser to indicate the post ID of the article you just edited. This cookie expires after one day.
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 as if the visitor has visited those websites.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content, including tracking your interaction if you have an account and are logged in to those websites.
Third-Party Services
We may use third-party services, such as Google Analytics or spam detection tools, to improve our website’s functionality and security. These third parties may collect data as described in their respective privacy policies. For example, visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
Who We Share Your Data With
We do not share your personal data with third parties unless required for specific services or legal obligations. For instance:
- If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
- Third-party service providers (e.g., hosting services, analytics tools) may process data on our behalf under strict confidentiality agreements.
How Long We Retain Your Data
- Comments: If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This allows us to recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them for moderation.
- Registered Users: For users that register on our website, we store the personal information provided in their user profile. Users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except usernames). Website administrators can also access and modify this data.
What Rights You Have Over Your Data
If you have an account on this site or have left comments, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you provided. You may also request that we erase any personal data we hold, excluding data retained for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

For users accessing our services outside Canada, your data may be transferred to and processed in Canada or other jurisdictions. We ensure compliance with applicable data protection laws for such transfers.
