Cookies

If you have an account and log in to this website, we will set a temporary cookie to determine whether your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in, we will set up some cookies to save your login information and display options. Login cookies expire after two days and display options cookies expire after one year.

Data retention

When you write a comment, it is stored indefinitely, including metadata. This allows us to automatically recognize and approve follow-up comments instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
