This site uses cookies. “Cookies” are data files that are placed on your device or computer and often include an anonymous unique identifier to help the site provide a better user experience. In general, cookies are used to retain user preferences, store information for things like shopping carts, and provide anonymous tracking data to third party applications like Google Analytics.

As a rule, cookies will make your browsing experience better. However, you may prefer to disable cookies on this site and on others. The most effective way to do this is to disable cookies in your browser. We suggest consulting the Help section of your browser.

Additionally, we use WordFence and Akismet Anti-Spam plugins with cookies to identify site visitors (human or bot) for security purposes. Personal information such as email address, IP address and location, device information, and site login credentials are collected to maintain security of the site and prevent publishing of malicious content.

Social Sharing Cookies

For social sharing from this site, we use the plugin Sassy Social Share, which uses cookies to provide browsing information when connecting to social media sites unrelated to this site. No personal identification cookies are used with the social plugin.

We embed a Facebook widget to allow you to see number of likes/shares/recommends and “like/share/recommend” our webpages. This widget may collect your IP address, your web browser User Agent, store and retrieve cookies on your browser, embed additional tracking, and monitor your interaction with the widget, including correlating with your Facebook account with whatever action you take within the widget (such as “liking/sharing/recommending” our webpage), if you are logged in to Facebook.

We use a Twitter Tweet widget on this site. As a result, this site makes requests to Twitter’s servers for you to be able to tweet our webpages using your Twitter account. These requests make your IP address visible to Twitter, who may use it in accordance with Twitter’s data privacy policy.

We use the Pinterest Save widget on this site to allow you to pin images to Pinterest from our webpages. These requests may track your IP address in accordance with Pinterest’s data privacy policy.

What personal data we collect and why we collect it

Users and site visitors may have personal data collected, such as name, email address, personal account preferences; transactional data, such as purchase information; and technical data, such as browser information, IP address, and information about cookies.

This data collection occurs from normal page views and user interactions, as well as being generated from technical processes such as comments, contact forms, analytics, cookies, and third party embeds.

Information is collected as needed for site operation and optimization, and communication with you. Also, with preference you have given to us, we provide you with information or advertising relating to our products or services. 

This site is build on the WordPress platform which does not collect any personal data about visitors, and only collects the data shown on the User Profile screen from registered users.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect information to detect spam through the Akismet anti-spam service. The information typically includes the commenter’s IP address, user agent, referrer, and Site URL (along with other information directly provided by the commenter such as their name, username, email address, and the comment itself).

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Contact forms

This site uses the WPForms plugin for you as a user to contact the admin of this site. The WPForms privacy policy is available here. The form is privacy-friendly, collecting the minimal data necessary for the communication which is name and email address. Contact form submissions result in a site-generated email that is sent to our webmail system. Emails from contact forms are communicated with as needed and necessary, retained for customer service purposes, and deleted when no longer necessary. Personal user data received from contact form submissions are not used for marketing purposes in any capacity.

Analytics

We use Google Analytics to analyze browsing behavior (track pages visited, to and from pages, length of time on the site pages, etc.), to optimize the site, and to use for relevant marketing and advertising campaigns. Data collection is currently turned on for remarketing and advertising features or purposes. 

This site uses the plugin Google Analytics for WordPress by MonsterInsights, which is connected to our Google Analytics accounts, to provide us with analytic information about visitors in a condensed format within the site backend.

We also use Google Analytics to track social shares made on this site. Google automatically collects and stores certain information in their server logs, which includes device event information such as crashes, system activity, hardware settings, browser type, browser language, the date and time of your request and referral URL, cookies that may uniquely identify your browser or your Google Account.
