Comments and Forms

When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help 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.

We use the "CleanTalk" service, which protects the Site from spam when a data entry on a Site is done (for example in a contact form). The legal basis is the legitimate interest (Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR.

For security reasons and as protection against spam, your data is processed in the CleanTalk Cloud Service and stored in log files for a maximum of 45 days. After expiry of the aforementioned period, this data will be completely deleted. CleanTalk may use information about spam activity from IP or email addresses to provide appropriate anti-spam protection to all websites connected to its service.

Further information on the handling and use of data by CleanTalk can be found in  CleanTalk Inc’s privacy policy: https://cleantalk.org/publicoffer#privacy.

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.
