It is Historic Mysteries’ policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our website and/or app.
Privacy Policy for Website and App Users
Like most website operators, Historic Mysteries collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. Historic Mysteries’ purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Historic Mysteries’ visitors use the website and/or app.
Historic Mysteries also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on the website. Historic Mysteries only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below, except that the commenter IP addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators.
Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information
Certain visitors to Historic Mysteries choose to interact with the website and/or app in ways that require us to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that we gather depend on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask users who sign up for our website to provide a username and email address. We collect such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with our site. Historic Mysteries does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.
Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information
We will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. We will only disclose potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena or court order, or when Historic Mysteries believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Historic Mysteries, its authors or the public at large. If you are a registered user of Historic Mysteries and have supplied your email address, we may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with our site. We primarily use the website to communicate this type of information, so we expect to keep this type of email to a minimum. Historic Mysteries takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
