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. After your comment is approved, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Retention Period
The information is kept for the period allowed by law and we delete it when it is no longer necessary. The period depends on the nature of the information and the reason for storing it. Therefore, it is not possible to specify a general timeframe for when information is deleted.
