We regard privacy and anonymity as one of our most important functions. We do not rent, sell or in any way exchange information about any e-mail addresses of visitors or volunteers.

** PRIVACY and the INTERNET **

The Internet, by virtue of its technology, raises privacy concerns which individual websites and blogs cannot address. This policy does not cover privacy concerns related to your presence on the Internet. This policy covers information which visitors and volunteers present to this website.

This site does not gather visitor's personal information. We do keep an incremental counter of our visitors. We do advise you, that there are companies and programs which have the ability to monitor Internet users when they are on a particular website.

This site does not place cookies on your computer. However, visitors should know, that our sites are on a public Host Computer, and that host may or may not write cookies to your computer. What the host site does is not under our control.

The only information sent to your computer is, information you select to read from our pages of information, which is sent to your computer. Your browser may or may not keep that information for a period of time. Contact the vendor of that browser for further information about that browser's operation.

** Web Site Resources **

Within our sites are direct links to other websites on the Internet which you can reach by clicking on links. Those sites contain information and may also endorse or advertise products. The presence of such link to other websites, should not be understood to mean we have any affiliation with them.

We do not endorse, control or approve external information or products they may advertise, nor do we guarantee the accuracy of their information. However we are selective of whom we link to, and believe in their principles at the time we link to them. Your use of that information is voluntary, and before reliance on it, we suggest you perform your own independent review, to decide appropriateness for your purposes.

Often we will cite case law and link to court decisions. Our main legal case source is FindLaw.com and we are grateful for that web site and wish them to have all credit for their work. When we cite cases from other sources (say State Court Appellate cases or others) we will name them to give them credit.

Attribution & Copyrights of Other Authors' Works: In articles that we write or comment on, it is always our policy to credit authors. We carefully evaluate all web sources that we use and want those authors to receive recognition for their work. If we have erred, we would appreciate anyone bringing that to our attention so we may again evaluate that source and make corrections or deletions.
