While comments are disabled by default on our site, should you choose to leave a comment, we collect the data shown in the comments form. We also collect your IP address and browser user agent string to aid in spam detection.

An anonymized string (hash) may be created from your email address and provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. You can find the Gravatar service privacy policy here. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture is publicly visible in the context of your comment.
