Comments

With the purpose of spam detection, when website guests leave comments, we collect the data filled in the comments form. Along with that we also collect the IP address of the website visitor and browser user agent string. Hash in the form of an anonymized string shaped from the guest’s email address may be provided to the service Gravatar to enquire if the guest is using it. You can familiarize yourself with the Gravatar service privacy policy by following this link: //automattic.com/privacy/. After the guest’s comment gets approval, the guest’s profile picture becomes visible to the public in the context of the published comment.
