Our website, Emerald Book, is dedicated to providing insightful recommendations for ideal places to live.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect the data submitted in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent to assist with spam detection.

An anonymized string (hash) generated from your email address may be shared with the Gravatar service to determine if you are using it. The Gravatar privacy policy is available at Automattic. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture (if applicable) will be publicly visible in the context of your comment.
