WHAT ELSE SHOULD YOU KNOW ABOUT OUR PRIVACY PRACTICES

  1. Security

We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect Personal Information, including your email address, submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. However, no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your Personal Information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. Any transmission of personal information is at your own risk. We are not responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures contained on the Site.

The safety and security of your information also depends on you. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password for access to certain parts of our Site, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share your password with anyone.

  1. Do Not Track Settings

Some internet browsers have incorporated “Do Not Track” features.  We respond to Do Not Track signals by not tracking browser and URL information collected through a tracking pixel.   However, for security purposes, we do not respond to Do Not Track signals for information collected via server logs, such as user IP address and firewall events.

  1. Children 

We will not collect information from children under age 18.   Our Site is a general audience site that is not designed nor intended to collect Personal Information from children under the age of 18.  If we learn that a person under the age of 18 has submitted personally identifiable information to us, we will delete that information from our Site.   If you believe that we might have information from or about a person under the age of 18, please contact us immediately at privacy@gearfire.com.
