If requested, once the issue is resolved, we will delete your email address. An anonymized summary of the issue may be kept for bug reporting.
Comments
When you leave comments on the website, we collect the data shown in the comments form; as well as your IP address and browser user-agent string which is used to help spam detection.
If you create an account with Rebel, an anonymized 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/.

Who we share your data with
