In respect of European GDPR, I will try to keep the number of ads, tracking data and user data as low as possible, and to have most of features built-in right in the website to keep third party services at minimum level. Though, some features do need explicit user data consent (Comments and Newsletter), see below for details.

Subscribing to comment answers could be done anonymously with RSS Feeds of the post comment section, or via email. This last option requires the user to give explicit content for email storage in the website database for the duration on the subscription. A user can unsubscribe to email comment notifications anytime, which will remove his emails from the related database section.
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.
