It’s retained solely for the purposes of your comment being displayed.
When you leave a comment, our anti-spam software compares the information, such as IP address or email, to the database of known spammers, and if your comment matches it, it will not be displayed and will be moved to spam or pending folders. The Website uses Antispam Bee to perform this function.
