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.

Google Analytics Usage for Website Tracking

Our website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC (“Google”). Google Analytics uses cookies, which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users interact with the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website (including your IP address) will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States.

We use Google Analytics to track and report website traffic, understand user behavior, and improve our website’s performance and user experience. This includes but is not limited to:

  1. Visitor Information: Google Analytics collects data such as your geographic location, device type, browser type, operating system, and demographic information (if available).
  2. Pageviews and Interactions: Google Analytics tracks the pages you visit on our website, the time you spend on each page, and your interactions with website elements (such as clicks and form submissions).
  3. Referral Sources: Google Analytics identifies the sources of traffic to our website, including search engines, referring websites, social media platforms, and direct visits.
  4. Conversion Tracking: We may use Google Analytics to track specific actions taken by users on our website, such as completing a purchase, signing up for a newsletter, or submitting a contact form.

The data collected by Google Analytics is aggregated and anonymized before being used for analysis, reporting, and optimization purposes. We do not use Google Analytics to collect personally identifiable information about our website visitors. Additionally, we have implemented IP anonymization in Google Analytics to mask the last octet of your IP address, ensuring your privacy is protected.

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.
