We have updated our privacy policy. This includes changes in how we collect and use your personal data, how long we keep it for, who is entitled to see it, and more.
It is important for us to give you the opportunity to review and understand these changes because they will affect how we process your data from now on.

Comments
We store any comments left by our visitors on our blog, and also their IP addresses and browser strings so we can identify them if they ever post again.
If you want to use your own photo instead of your gravatar, go ahead. But please note that we need to know which one you prefer.
Media
Don’t upload any photos containing GPS coordinates. Visitors can then download these coordinates from the photo and use them to track where you’ve been online.
