PRIVACY POLICY

The Krummholz Zone respects the privacy of your personal information. The following policy is intended to explain how The Krummholz Zone treats this information, but to put it quite simply; other than counting the number of visits to the index page, The Krummholz Zone does not collect any information at all.

Normal Web Site Usage
You can visit The Krummholz Zone without telling us who you are and without revealing any personal information. The Krummholz Zone does not collect or store personally identifiable information such as name, mailing address, e-mail address, phone number, social security number, the name of your Internet service provider, the browser (including available plug-ins and browser functionality) and type of computer you are using, the IP address, the Web site that referred you to us, the pages you request and the date and time of those requests.

What Information Is Collected
Each time a visitor comes to The Krummholz Zone, one basic bit of information is collected: the number of visitors to the index page. The Krummholz Zone has no idea who you are, where you are from or why you are here. All we know is the hit counter advances one number. We like that!

Use of Cookies
We do not use cookies on The Krummholz Zone. A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.

One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. This simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so forth. When you return to the same web site, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the features that you customized.

You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the web sites you visit.

Some parties use cookies to view sites you visit other than their own, to assess your viewing habits. The Krummholz Zone will never, ever subscribe to this practice.

Children's Privacy
The Krummholz Zone is considered a general audience website. However, protecting the privacy of young children is extremely important. For that reason, The Krummholz Zone will never collect or maintain information from those individuals known to be under the age of 13, and no part of The Krummholz Zone is, or will ever be, intentionally structured to attract anyone under the age of 13.
