Ads, Cookies and Privacy Policy

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Contact forms

As a general rule, all information that is sent through the contact form is confidential. The exceptions are for scammers, spammers and asshats trying something fishy or illegal. In which case we will tell your mum and all her friends, and hang you out to dry in public.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Analytics

Who we share your data with

JetPack, Monster Insights and Google Analytics. These are shared for analytical, security and spam detection purposes only.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Additional information

ADS

This website accepts ads. Paid, affiliate and AdSense. We try to keep the experience as pleasant as possible, and avoid flash, pop-ups, and other annoying little flies. If you see something that bugs you, get in touch.

Feel free to click the pretty pictures if there is something you fancy. We made a whopping $0.58 on our AdSense ads last year. Almost enough for a coffee.
If you want to make sure we can afford the coffee this year, and would like to sponsor this site with an ad or two, hooray!

P.S.
Fuck Putler!
