What Personal Data We Collect and Why We Collect It

We collect various types of personal data to enhance user experience and improve our services. This includes:

  • User Interactions: Data from forms, comments, and embedded content.
  • Marketing & Analytics: Information collected via Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Mailchimp, and other third-party tools.

Comments

When visitors leave comments, we collect data shown in the comments form, IP addresses, and browser user agent strings to aid spam detection.

Media

If users upload images to the site, they should avoid embedding location data (EXIF GPS), as visitors can download and extract this data.
