Privacy Policy

This website collects personally-identifiable information about you; this document describes what we collect and how we plan on using it.

When you register on the site, we collect your name, e-mail address, and possibly other information such as your timezone and whatever details you choose to provide. All of these details with the exception of your e-mail address are publicly-viewable on the site.
E-mail address: this is collected to ensure that the registrant is a valid person with an e-mail address and the ability to manually follow instructions in the e-mail. This is to prevent automated attacks or content postings on the site. The e-mail address may be used to notify you of comments on content you place on the site or to receive messages from the site administrator. The e-mail address will not be sold or given to outside parties without your express consent.
Your IP address: the Internet wouldn't work without addresses. In addition to using the IP address for routing purposes, however, it is stored in a tracking database so that we can monitor activity for suspicious events as well as for general statistical analysis of traffic. Information retained also includes your browser signature and other information transmitted from your browser to our server(s).

Your name is used to identify you on the site; in our experience, removing anonymity helps to decrease violations of our Terms of Service.
Your e-mail address may be used to send you comments on your content; you can turn this off by editing your user profile should you not wish to receive notices of such activity.
Your IP address, browser signature, and other information transmitted by your browser, is used for statistical analysis of our site's traffic; this analysis is typically performed on aggregate data and does not include any user-specific activity.
Your IP address may be used for specific geo-location activity in the future.
Any information we collect may be given to appropriate law enforcement agencies if requested via a legal search warrant.
