Personal Identification Data
We may collect personal identification data from a User in a range of ways, including but not limited to, when a User visits our site, registers on the site, places an order, fills in a form, and in connection with other activities, services, features or resources we make available on our Site.

A User can always refuse to supply personal identification data, except that it may prevent them from participating in certain Site-related actions.
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
