Comments When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, including the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to assist in spam detection. An anonymized string created from your email address (also known as a hash) may be shared with the Gravatar service to check if you're using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy can be found at automattic.com/privacy. After your comment is approved, your profile picture will be visible to the public in the context of your comment.
