What personal data we collect and why we collect it#

In a nutshell, this site hosts a blog and a wiki.

Any user data collected by those software applications in the course of their work is used for those purposes, and nothing else. We don’t collect any other data about your usage of the site, we don’t host any advertising, and we don’t pass on any site information to anyone else. If you post information to this site you have the reasonable expectation that the information you’ve posted will be shared with other people.

Comments#

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

Media#

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.
