When avatar images are shown, the site may send a hash derived from the relevant user’s email address to Gravatar in order to request that user’s avatar image. This happens when the board, card details, comments, or activity history are viewed and the site is configured to use Gravatar avatars. Gravatar is provided by Automattic.
