Comments
When visitors post comments on the website, we collect the data shown in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and the browser’s user agent string in order to facilitate spam detection.
An anonymised string created from your email address (also known as a hash) may be supplied to the Gravatar service in order to see whether you are using this address.

Advertising
The banners on the website do not use third party profiling cookies for the purpose of running campaigns tailored to users’ specific tastes.
Embedded content from other websites
The articles on this website may include embedded content (videos, images, articles, and so on). Any embedded content from another website will behave exactly as it would had the user visited that other website.
These other websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed third party tracking and monitor interaction with the embedded content, including your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged into the website in question.
Google Analytics
This website, diyandgarden.com, has embedded Google Analytics. This has been done for the purpose of analysing our website traffic. Among other things, Google uses the data and information collected for evaluating the use of our website and for generating online reports, which detail the activity on our website, and for providing other services related to the use of our website: data on the so-called referrer (i.e. the website from which the user was redirected), on which secondary pages were visited, and on how often and for how long a page was viewed. The web data analysis is mainly used for optimising the website and for performing cost-benefit analyses of Internet advertising.
Data used for analysing visitor behaviour are aggregated and anonymous. Indeed, to perform web analytics using Google Analytics, the controller uses the function “_gat. _anonymizeIp” through which the IP address of the data subject’s Internet connection is rendered anonymous.

All such users can view, modify or delete their personal information at any time (with the exception of their user name, which cannot be changed).
