Privacy Policy
This site is owned and operated by The Connor Group. Your privacy on the
Internet is of the utmost importance to us. At The Connor Group, we want to make
your experience online satisfying and safe.
Information Types
Because we gather certain types of information about our users, we feel
you should fully understand our policy and the terms and conditions
surrounding the capture and use of that information. This privacy statement
discloses what information we gather and how we use it.
The Connor Group gathers two types of information about users:
- Information that users provide through optional, voluntary
submissions.
- Information The Connor Group gathers through aggregated tracking
information derived mainly by tallying page views throughout our sites.
This information allows us to better tailor our content to readers'
needs. Under no circumstances does The Connor Group divulge any
information about an individual user to a third party.
Children
Consistent with the Federal Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of
1998 (COPPA), we will never knowingly request personally identifiable
information from anyone under the age of 13 without requesting parental
consent.
Usage Tracking
The Connor Group tracks user traffic patterns throughout all of our
sites. However, we do not correlate this information with data about
individual users. The Connor Group does break down overall usage statistics
according to a user's domain name, browser type, and MIME type by reading
this information from the browser string (information contained in every
user's browser).
Cookies
We may place a text file called a "cookie" in the browser files of your
computer. The cookie itself does not contain Personal Information although
it will enable us to relate your use of this site to information that you
have specifically and knowingly provided. But the only personal information
a cookie can contain is information you supply yourself. A cookie can't read
data off your hard disk or read cookie files created by other sites.
Use of Information
When we use tracking information to determine which areas of our sites users
like and don't like based on traffic to those areas, we do not track what
individual users read, but rather how well each page performs overall. This
helps us continue to build a better service for you.
Sharing of the Information
We will not share information about individual users with any third party,
except to comply with applicable law or valid legal process or to protect the
personal safety of our users or the public.
Your Consent
By using this site, you consent to the collection and use of this information
by The Connor Group. If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post
those changes on this page so that you are always aware of what information we
collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances we disclose it.
