This website, MikeDang.com, is committed to protecting your privacy.
This Privacy Policy is intended to describe how your personal information
is processed and used, and I will make every effort to ensure that
the activities of the site keep within the spirit of this Privacy
Policy. You can tour through most of this site without disclosing
any information that personally identifies you, reveals personal
information or allows me to contact you, but I will need information
to respond to your requests. This privacy statement explains the
data I collect from you and its use. Please read the complete privacy
statement.
Please note that by visiting and using www.MikeDang.com, you are
accepting the practices described in this Privacy Policy.
What information is this website gathering about its visitors
and how is it being used?
Every computer connected to the Internet is provided with a domain
name (e.g. yahoo.com) and an IP Address (e.g. 156.162.13.113). When
a visitor requests a page from within this website, the web servers
automatically identify and log the HTTP request that is made to
the current Web Server. This information reveals nothing personal
about you. In fact, very little information is automatically gathered
and logged. This information may include:
* The IP address of the site that may have referred you.
* Your IP address
* Operating system that you may be using (e.g. Windows 98)
* Version and make of browser (e.g. Internet Explorer 5.0)
There is nothing special about the information described, and the
practice of collecting this data has been generally standardized
by virtually every Web Server on the Internet today.
There are two major purposes for this information. It is advantageous
to observe visitor traffic in its entirety, so that I can ensure
maximum compatibility for the various browsers and operating systems
that visit this site. Also, generating greater amounts of visitor
traffic, as any business would attest, is very desirable. By analyzing
visitation patterns, and referring URLs, I can strategically increase
exposure on the Internet.
What about Cookies?
Cookies are files holding small pieces of data that are transferred
to your computer's hard drive through your Web browser from our
web server. A cookie cannot read data from your hard disk or read
cookie files that may have been created from other sites. This website
may utilize cookies as a means of providing personalization features
to you. For example, cookies may be utilized to remember settings
(site theme colors, music preferences, what services may interest
you, etc.) that you may have made at this or any other website.
You can choose whether to accept cookies by changing the settings
of your browser. Typically, by accessing the browser's help feature
you can obtain information on how to prevent your browser from accepting
all cookies or to notify you when a cookie is being sent. If you
choose not to accept cookies, your experience at this website and
other websites may be diminished and some features may not work
as intended.
What other information does MikeDang.com request?
This site may also request your e-mail address, name, company, location,
web address, services you may be interested in and your comments
for the purposes of conducting a survey, or by your request to have
someone contact you for additional information. A strict "No Spam" policy
is maintained and that means I do not intend to sell, rent, or otherwise
give your e-mail address to a third-party, without your consent.
Will this website disclose the information collected to Third
Parties?
I will disclose your personal information or any of its log file
information when required by law or in the good-faith belief that
such actions are necessary to 1.) conform to the edicts of the law
or comply with a legal process served on this website. 2.) Protect
and defend the rights or property of this company, or visitors of
this site. 3.) Identify persons who may be violating the law, the
legal notice, or the rights of third parties. 4.) Cooperate with
the investigations of purported unlawful activities.
I may disclose information to my partners to better expedite the
service(s) you may request from this website. I use reasonable precautions
to keep the information disclosed to me secure. I am not responsible
for any breach of security or for any actions of any third parties
that receive the information.
Any changes to this Privacy Policy will be posted on this page so
that you are always aware of the information that is collected,
how it is used, and under what circumstances it is disclosed.
Revised: Jan 30, 2004
