Use Cases

Embedded Content from Other Sites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles). Opening embedded content from other websites behaves as if the visitor has visited the third-party site.

These sites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content, including tracking your interaction if you have an account and are logged into that site.

Who We Share Your Data With

Your data is shared only in the following cases:

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.

We store user profile information for registered users (if any). All users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time, except for their username. Website administrators can also view and edit this information.
