We care about your privacy. This is how we protect it.
We are committed to providing our subscribers and advertising partners with the utmost in privacy and security. We abide by all industry guidelines and consistently monitor our management and operating methods in order to maintain our valued reputation and integrity. This is our promise to our subscribers and advertisers.
Type of Information Collected
We collect only information that is voluntarily added by our readers and we will NEVER distribute this information to advertisers or other outside parties or used to send unsolicited emails.
In order to service a subscription, subscribers must submit an email address, but no other personal information is required directly by us. Other information may be entered by users of the forum and comments sections, such as a profile description, but this is entirely optional. We may, from time to time, ask for demographic information such as age or gender, but this information is voluntary and is not connected to the email addresses and only shared as aggregate numbers (e.g. “Responding readers were 52% female, 48% male”, rather than “john@doe.com is a male”.)
Payments for subscriptions are handled through a third-party secure system and private information from that system is NOT incorporated into our database.
We associate with advertisers who offer products and services that we feel may interest our readers. In making purchases, readers may provide information to advertisers, which is subject to the advertiser’s privacy policy. Information typically collected by advertisers include their name, address, title, e-mail address, and age along with other demographic information and optional questions chosen by the advertiser. We will not do business with companies that use this information in an unethical manner and ask our readers to notify us immediately if their privacy has been violated by our advertisers.
