Comments
Recommended text: When visitors leave comments, we collect the data shown in the comment form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser’s User-Agent string to help detect spam.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also known as a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to check if you are using that service. The Gravatar service’s privacy policy can be found here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After your comment is approved, your profile picture will be publicly visible next to your comment.

How long we retain your information
