The information collected may include the commenter’s IP address, Site URL, name, username, email address, and the comment itself). Akismet data is not retained for very long and is classified as a “legitimate interest” use of that data. The Akismet policies can be viewed by using the “This site uses Akismet to reduce spam.

Third parties have access to your data as noted within this agreement.
An anonymised string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
If you have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
How long we retain your data
