• Comments. When comments are open, WordPress collects the information you enter, including your name, email, comment, and optional website. WordPress may also process your IP address and browser details to help detect spam. If your comment is published, your comment, display name, and any website link you include may be visible to others. Your email address is used to administer the comment.
• Technical information. Hosting and security services may log details such as IP address, requested pages, request times, and browser information to operate the site, troubleshoot errors, and prevent abuse.

Analytics data, logs, and backups are kept according to the settings and retention periods of the relevant services. Records may be kept longer where needed for security or legal obligations.

Children’s Privacy
