4. Cookies

We use cookies to enhance your experience on our site:

  • Comments: If you leave a comment, you may opt-in to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. This is for your convenience, so you don’t have to fill in your details again when leaving another comment. These cookies last for one year.

  • Login: When you visit our login page, we set a temporary cookie to check if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie does not contain any personal data and is discarded when you close your browser. If you log in, several cookies will be set up to save your login information and screen display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, while screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login persists for two weeks. Logging out will remove the login cookies.

5. Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on our site may include embedded content (such as videos, images, or articles). Embedded content from other websites behaves as if you visited the other website directly. These external sites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content, especially if you have an account and are logged in to that site.

6. Data Sharing

If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email to enhance security.
