What personal data we collect and why we collect it
Contact form
In case you submit information via the contact form we provide on the main page, we collect and store the information submitted by you to us and might use it later to get back to you in order to provide you with further information, ask you for further information, and/or to make you offers to you regarding our services.
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

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.
