5) WordPress-Specific Data (Common Features)
A. Comments (if enabled)
If you leave a comment, WordPress may collect the data shown in the comment form, plus your IP address and browser user agent for spam detection. WordPress may also set cookies to remember your name/email for future comments.
B. Media uploads (if enabled)
If you upload images, avoid including embedded location data (EXIF GPS), as visitors may be able to extract it.
C. Embedded content from other websites
Pages may include embedded content (e.g., videos). Embedded content may behave like you visited the third-party website and may collect data, use cookies, and track your interaction.
D. Security, caching, and performance plugins
We may use security and performance tools (plugins/CDN/caching). These tools may process request data (like IP address and requested pages) to help protect and speed up the Site.
