If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

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.

Who we share your data with

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

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.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

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.

Where your data is sent

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.

Data Collected to Manage Your Membership

At checkout, we will collect your name, email address, username, and password. This information is used to setup your account for our site. If you are redirected to an offsite payment gateway to complete your payment, we may store this information in a temporary session variable to setup your account when you return to our site.

When logged in, we use cookies to track some of your activity on our site including logins, visits, and page views.

Payment Processing with Stripe

At checkout, we utilize Stripe, a trusted third-party payment processor, to securely handle your payment information. Stripe may collect and process the following data for payment processing:

Credit Card Information: When you make a purchase, we collect your credit card number, expiration date, and security code. This information is securely passed to Stripe to process your payment.

Billing Information: We may also collect your billing address and phone number during checkout. This information is used to confirm your credit card and facilitate the payment process. Your billing address and phone number may be saved on our site to prepopulate the checkout form for future purchases and to contact you if necessary regarding your order.

Temporary Session Data: If you are redirected to an offsite payment gateway to complete your payment, we may temporarily store some of this information in session variables to ensure a seamless account setup when you return to our site.

Last 4 Digits and Expiration Date: For your convenience and to notify you when your credit card is set to expire before the next recurring payment, our site saves the last 4 digits of your credit card number and the expiration date.

Payment Security

Please be assured that your payment information is handled securely by Stripe, which adheres to industry-leading security standards to protect your data.
