This policy applies to the Site and all content and services offered here.

1. Information I Collect

a. Personal Identification Information
I may collect personal information from Users in several ways, including, but not limited to, when Users visit the site, subscribe to the newsletter, post a comment, or fill out a contact form. Users may be asked for their name and email address. Users can always refuse to supply personal information, though it may prevent them from engaging in certain site-related activities like receiving newsletters or leaving comments.

I may collect non-personal information about Users whenever they interact with the Site. This may include the browser name, type of computer, technical information about Users’ means of connection (e.g., operating system, Internet service provider, IP address), and other similar data. IP addresses are not linked to personally identifiable information.

c. Web Browser Cookies
This Site uses “cookies” to enhance the User experience. A User’s web browser places cookies on their hard drive for record-keeping purposes and sometimes to track information.

3. How I Protect Your Information

I adopt appropriate data collection, storage, and processing practices and security measures to protect against unauthorized access, alteration, or disclosure of your personal information. However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure.

4. Sharing Your Personal Information

I do not sell, trade, or rent Users’ personal identification information to others. I may share generic aggregated demographic information not linked to any personal information (e.g., overall traffic trends) with trusted affiliates or analytics partners.

5. Third-Party Services & Advertising
