We use several Third party services to help provide you with a more pleasurable experience on this website as well as to stay in contact with you via social channels. The information below describes the types of information collected and how it is used.

We collect personal information, such as your name and email address, when you register for our email newsletter or use our post comment system.

When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
