PRIVATE POLICY

Here at eric-brown.de, I take personal privacy very seriously. As a general rule eric-brown.de does not collect your personal information unless you chose to provide that information to me. When you choose to provide me with your personal information, you are giving eric-brown.de your permission to use that information for the stated purposes listed in this privacy policy. If you choose not to provide me with that information, it might limit the features and services that you can use on this website.

Generally, the information requested by eric-brown.de will be used to provide a website feature or service to you, such as commenting, support, or providing future content better tailored to your interests. A description of eric-brown.de’s intended use of that information, how that information is collected, security measures eric-brown.de takes to protect that information, and how to grant or revoke consent for collection and use of that information will be fully described the ‘Privacy Notice’ section of this privacy policy.

Some of the services on this website allow you to send me an email. I will use the information you provide, such as email address or phone number, only to respond to your inquiry. Keep in mind that email transmissions are not encrypted by default, so I suggest you do not send sensitive information such as Social Security numbers, credit card numbers, or bank account information via such contact forms.

If such information is required, it will be via a web page that clearly states the page and its transmission of information is secure and encrypted. All electronic messages received from visitors are deleted when no longer needed.

eric-brown.de uses cookies to provide a customized user experience on the site. A cookie is a small file that a website transfers to your computer to allow your browser to remember information about your last session on that website. Your computer only shares information in the cookie with the specific website that provided it, and no other website can request that information. eric-brown.de also uses third-party analytics services (like Google Analytics) to gather this information for analysis.

We may share this information internally with (website) employees or third-party contractors as needed. This information is only used to to improve the website and enhance our visitors’ experience. Raw data logs are only retained temporarily site management purposes.

If you do not wish to have cookies stored on your machine, you have the option to turn cookies off in your browser. However, keep in mind that turning off cookies may impact how this website functions. Disabling browser cookies will also impact how other websites you visit store browser cookies as well.

Whenever I collect any sensitive information (such as social security numbers or credit card information), the information is encrypted and securely transmitted. You are able to confirm this by looking for the ‘lock’ icon in the browser address bar, and also confirm that the URL link starts with ‘https.’
