~ Privacy Statement ~

 

Privacy

Maintaining your right to privacy is very important to me, therefore I give you this guarantee:

All the information collected on this site from guests, will only be used for:

  • posting website information that you supply,
  • reply e-mail due to your inquiry,
  • my need to contact you for notification or verification of information.

All information contained in the forms will remain strictly confidential. It will not be sold to third parties, given away or in anyway divulged to anyone else.

All the information contained therein, will be destroyed immediately after a response has been made pertaining to the information given, this will include email addresses.

The exception to the previous statement pertains to my Partners. That information will be stored in a separate location not contained within this web site and only I can access it. The information will be used to give my Partners updates pertaining to this web site, only when necessary! I really don't enjoy bugging people about needless information.

Most people don't bother to check the Privacy Statement on web sites. Glad you did!

Here's a tip: Next time you use a search engine type in 'phishing' and read an article about it. I think you will find it very informative. It should contain information about Hackers gathering your personal information through forms received in your e-mail.

 

Security

I strongly advise individuals under the age of thirteen to get your parents' permission before submitting ANY kind of personal data over the Internet for your safety. Be very careful when typing in the e-mail address, if typed wrong, I have no way of contacting you about the information requested. If the e-mail address is incorrect, the information will bounce back to me and will be voided, so watch your e-mail spelling! The information sent from my email form is sent directly to me at one of my email addresses which is only accessed by me. The information requested in the form is not considered private enough to warrant a secure area since I'm not requesting personal information such as a credit card number, social security number, address, etc.

Note: Be very careful of web sites that request personal  information and the form is not located in a secure area. Hackers can intercept the information as it's being transmitted and if they are really experts, extract the information while you are typing it!

 

Do I have cookies?

Many Web surfers are concerned about cookies. I only have one cookie generated from my web site that pertains to partners. The gathering of statistical information is very important to all of my sites. The information that is gathered is in no way personal information that will lead me, or anyone else, back to you. As you can see on the home page there is a hit counter which is used to tabulate the number of visitors I have received at the site location on a daily basis. Click on the blue globe at the bottom of the page to see the statistics. Other information gathered concerns whether or not you were sent to my site by a search engine such as Google, Yahoo, Alta Vista, etc. Statistics on the type of browser being used such as Netscape or Explorer, the operating system such as Mac or Windows, and other non-essential information is gathered. The information is needed to improve upon the coding of the web pages, site traffic, and browser compatibility of the visitors at my site. Now that you are here, I do want you to be able to enjoy your visit and feel comfortable in knowing that you will not receive any spammed information or have your identity stolen by visiting this site! Honesty is the best policy because the truth will always come to light.
