provide us will never be released to a third party. All our Email
lists and Membership forms use the Opt-In model. These Emails
always include a procedure and instructions to remove yourself
from our lists.
We do use "cookies" on this site. We use "cookies" to retain your
user name and password for our geek/talk Bulletin Board and in
our Contests, Polls, Quizzes, and Surveys.
Certain sections of this site log and display your IP number.
IP numbers are not secret and have been used for years. Every
site you visit logs and often displays your IP number. We use
this procedure for your protection as well as our own.
This
is how we will handle information we learn about you from your
visit to our website. The information we receive depends upon
what you do when visiting our site. If you visit our site we collect
and store only the following information about you: the name of
the domain from which you access the Internet (for example, aol.com,
if you are connecting from an America Online account, or princeton.edu
if you are connecting from Princeton University's domain); the
date and time you access our site; and the Internet address of
the website from which you linked directly to our site. We use
the information we collect to measure the number of visitors to
the different sections of our site, and to help us make our site
more useful to visitors.
We want to be very clear: We will not obtain personally-identifying
information about you when you visit our site, unless you choose
to provide such information to us.
Children's
Online Privacy Protection Act
Our Compliance Statement and Procedures
Although we have no knowledge of any children under the age of
13 using any service or subscribing to any service on this site
which may fall under the purview of this law we have chosen to
implement our full and absolute compliance with this law. We think
this law is good and children under the age of 13 need protection.
If you are under 13 years of age please do not subscribe to any
of our Email lists or register for our geek/talk Bulletin Board
and or use any service on this site which requires your "personnel
information". The next paragraph explains this in more detail.
If you are under the age of 13 and you see any service on this
site which collects the following information, please do not use
it or submit any data. This includes a service on this site which
asks for your name, home address, e-mail address, telephone number,
hobbies, interests, and a request for any other information that
would allow someone to identify or contact a child under the age
of 13. If you have any questions about our compliance procedures,
please contact us.
