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.

We keep contact form submissions for 6 months for customer service purposes. We do not use the information submitted through our contact forms for marketing purposes unless express consent is granted.
