This privacy policy applies to information collected online from users of this website. In this policy, you can learn what kind of information I collect, when and how I might use that information, how I protect the information, and the choices you have with respect to your personal information.
What personal information is collected through this website and how is it used?
I collect information about my website users in three ways: directly from the user, from my web server logs, and through cookies. I use this information primarily to provide you with a personalized internet experience that delivers the information, resources, and services that are most relevant and helpful to you. I do not share any of the information you provide with others, unless I say so in this Privacy Policy, or when I believe in good faith that the law requires it.
User-supplied information
If, after reading the legal disclaimer, you submit a message on the contact form on my contact, I will receive your message via email. I only require that you provide your email address to email me. Please do not submit any confidential, proprietary or sensitive information. Sensitive information includes any personally identifiable details such as your Social Security Number, date of birth, drivers license number, credit card, bank account, or other financial information. If you submit any sensitive information, you do so at your own risk and I will not be liable to you or responsible for the consequences of your submission.
Information that you provide me through email will only be used so that I may respond to your inquiry. I may also use information you provide me to communicate with you in the future. If you do not wish to receive such communications, you may opt out (unsubscribe) as described below.

In order to offer and provide a customized and personal service, my website and applications may use cookies and similar technologies to store and help track information about you.

I may use services hosted by third parties, including Adobe Site Catalyst, to assist in providing our services and to help me understand the use of my site by its visitors. These services may collect information sent by your browser as part of a web page request, including your IP address or cookies.

In addition, I may use services provided by third parties to display relevant content, products, services and advertising to you.
