##Privacy statement##

Due to the subject matter of FreeSporePrints, many visitors are concerned about maintaining their privacy and anonymity while browsing the site. This document explains when and why we might store information about you without your explicit consent, and how you can prevent such information from being recorded. You may wish to visit our Security & Safety forum on our Message Boards for further information and assistance.

IP Logging:
Your IP address is like your telephone number on the internet. It may change from time to time, but while you have it, it's unique to your computer. IP addresses can be used to determine the identity of your ISP (internet service provider), and to discover their general geographic location. Your ISP keeps log files which can be used to match your IP address with your account information.

Like most websites, FreeSporePrints maintains an access log which includes IP address information. This is done for our security and yours. These logs are deleted from the server periodically, but we make no specific guarantees about their longevity. We reserve the right to log IPs at any time. To prevent your IP address from being logged you must access the site through a proxy server. The site's functionality may be impaired when using a proxy.

Technical Information:
Our access logs also contain technical information about our users' computers, including (but not limited to) their browsers, operating systems, and what sites referred them to FreeSporePrints. Technical information is retained and used by FreeSporePrints to improve site compatibility and guide development. It may be shared in aggregate with third parties, but no personally identifiable information will be made available. To prevent technical information about your computer from being logged you must access the site using a proxy server or a third party web anonymizer. The site's functionality may be impaired when technical information about the user's computer is not available.

Cookies:
Cookies are small pieces of data which FreeSporePrints stores on your hard drive. The cookies we set can only be read by FreeSporePrints - your web browser will not allow any other site to access the data. Cookies have an expiration date, so that they don't stay on your hard drive indefinitely. Your browser automatically deletes cookies which have expired.

FreeSporePrints sets many cookies to enhance the browsing experience. They are used to store user preferences, technical data, and for statistical tracking. You can prevent FreeSporePrints from setting cookies on your hard drive by configuring your web browser to reject cookies, to prompt you before accepting them, or by installing a third party cookie utility. The site's functionality may be impaired when cookies are disabled.

Usage:
FreeSporePrints will never sell, give, share or transfer any information we collect about our users, except as outlined below:

* In the event that FreeSporePrints is served with a legal subpoena, we may provide the information as required by law.
* If a user is engaged in activities which may cause serious harm to our servers or community, we reserve the right to file a report with the user's ISP and any applicable authorities.
* If we have reason to believe that a user may be in imminent danger of harming him or herself, or others, we reserve the right to share any identifying information with police, emergency services, and anyone else in a position to render assistance.
* We may provide aggregate user information to third parties such as advertisers, but no personally identifiable information will be made available.

FreeSporePrints is very concerned with maintaining our users' privacy and we are constantly striving to create a secure and anonymous environment.

Thanks to the Shroomery for the Legal Disclaimer and Privacy statement.
