Privacy Policy:

Our privacy policy is simple: except as noted below, we collect no personal information about you when you visit our website unless you choose to provide that information to us and we do not share your personal information except as you specifically authorize us, we believe in good faith the law requires, or we believe in good faith we must to protect our rights.

What We May Collect

We may collect information about users in three ways: directly from you, from Web server logs, and through cookies.

“User-supplied information” is information you voluntarily furnish, for example, in an email to us or a comment on a blog post.

In the case of an email, we will not voluntarily share it with others unless we believe in good faith the law requires it, we believe in good faith we must to protect our rights, or you specifically authorize us to do so (however, as we state elsewhere, no attorney-client relationship is created through this website and therefore no attorney-client evidentiary privilege attaches to such a communication, so you should NOT send us information that you want or expect to remain confidential, private or proprietary). We will not be liable for any good faith error in disclosing such information.

In the case of a comment on a blog, you consent, by posting the comment on this site, to its being read by others and to its republication through our social media sites or other internet or other venues.

“Web server logs,” if applicable, may track, store and record certain information about your activities on our site automatically; such information would be used to help us administer the site, analyze its usage, protect the site from inappropriate use, and improve its usefulness. In other words, your visit may be recorded for statistical purposes (through Web server logs and through cookies) but such information would not be collected by us or used by us primarily for personal identification of users but rather for statistical purposes. Such information will not be provided to others, unless we believe in good faith that the law requires it or that we must to protect our rights. Examples of the types of information that may be collected through Web server logs include your Internet Protocol address, name of your Internet service provider, date and time of your visit, pages you view, and time you spend at the site. Other sites which you access by means of linking from our site may collect information in this manner and we cannot control what information those sites collect or how they use the information.

“Cookies,” which are small pieces of data sent to your browser from a web server and stored on your computer’s hard drive, assist users to navigate websites on successive visits by storing and tracking information about the user. Cookies may be used not only by our website but also by applications and other websites accessed through our website; in general, we cannot control what information those sites collect or how they use the information, and whether or not they place cookies on your computer. The use of cookies is relatively standard and widespread and most internet browsers are set up to accept cookies by default; your browser can be set to refuse to accept cookies or to notify you when you receive a cookie, but disabling cookies may cause you to be unable to access some sites or some features of sites or applications or may result in some features or applications not functioning properly.

How We Protect Information

In general, we will not voluntarily share your information with others unless we believe in good faith the law requires it or that we must to protect our rights, or you specifically authorize us to do so. And we take commercially appropriate security procedures to help protect your personal information from accidental loss or unauthorized access, use or disclosure. BUT we cannot guarantee that unauthorized persons will always be unable to overcome those security measures.

And as stated above, when you use links on our website to visit other sites, we do not have control over those other sites, and cannot be responsible for protection and privacy of any information you disclose while visiting those sites.

How You Can Control Personal Information

At any time, you can opt out of future contacts with us, by notifying us by email or phone. If you request, we will describe to you what information we have about you and update or change, or delete, that information, to the extent feasible and lawful for us to do so.
