Website Statistics Gathering

We maintain this website as a service to our members and visitors. Like many websites, this one utilizes Plausible‘s software to gather information, such as your anonymized IP address, browser type, hits on particular pages, and other general traffic information to help us make this site better for our users. You remain anonymous since this information is not linked to any of your personally identifiable information and your IP address is also anonymized.

Information We Collect

We do not request any personally identifying information to allow use of this web site.

We collect personally identifiable information, like names, postal addresses, email addresses, etc., only when voluntarily submitted by our visitors. The information you provide is used to fulfill your specific request and only that request, unless you give us permission to use it in another manner, for example, to add you to one of our mailing lists.

Embedded Content From Other Websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracing your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Third-Party Data Collection

For the protection of our members and website visitors, we make every effort to ensure that our business partners enforce safe Internet policies. However, only you can judge whether or not you feel comfortable on any website.

We use PayPal for online payment processing, which is done totally on the PayPal website. We don’t have access to your credit card information and only receive the information necessary to process the service you requested, such as your name and address, which is used for internal purposes only to process the services your requested.
