We gather the information displayed in the comments form, including the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string, aiding in spam detection.
Additionally, an anonymized string generated from your email address (referred to as a hash) might be shared with the Gravatar service to determine if you utilize it. You can review the Gravatar service’s privacy policy here: Gravatar Service Privacy Policy. Following the approval of your comment, your profile picture becomes visible to the public in connection with your comment.
