Personal information that is collected on this site is subject to the following Privacy Policy:

A. Blog

Content that you post on the blog, including any comments or responses, are available for the world to see. Please make sure that you read through your comments before posting. Additionally, if you choose to register as a user, you are asked for an email address, as well as other information. This information will not be shared by me, except for a web address which you may optionally add. This address becomes a link which WordPress (my blog platform) links via your username any time you post a reply.

B. Contact Form

If you choose to utilize the contact form, you are asked to voluntarily provide your name and email address. Though neither one of these items are required, if you would like or require a response back, you must provide this information.

Under NO circumstances, except where required by law, will I disclose this information to any third party without your express permission

C. Website Tracking

In order to provide the best possible experience to my users, I utilize website tracking software called Woopra. Woopra is similar to Google Analytics. This technology provides real time information about visitors, including your IP address, city, screen resolution, OS, and browser platform, among other things. The technology here is not unlike almost any other website that you visit on a daily basis. Companies use this statistical information to tailor their sites to provide the best possible experience.

This information is used only for personal research purposes, so that I can tailor my site to cater to my users' viewing platforms. This information will not be sold, rented, or given to any third party, except where required by law. This information may be used to help thwart spam or abusive visitors if necessary, in the form of banning IP addresses, for example.

Please note that I cannot directly remove statistical information once it has been collected, as it is stored on the Woopra servers.

For more information on Woopra, including Woopra's Privacy Policy, please see http://woopra.com. If you are uncomfortable with this information being tracked, which is not unlike many other websites, you can utilize the "No-Script"extension for Firefox, which will prevent the Woopra tracking script from collecting information from you.

D. General Statement

I hate websites who try to be sneaky about collecting and selling users' information. The general idea here is that I want to help and enlighten my visitors, and invading their privacy is not the way to do it. If you feel that your privacy has been invaded or if you perhaps submitted or posted private or personally identifiable information, please contact privacy@mikebruckner.com and I will try to rectify the situation.
