What information do we collect from our users and how do we collect it?

This Site does not collect personally identifiable information about individuals except when specifically and knowingly provided by such individuals, for instance, through comments or e-mails you may send to this Site.

How will we use the information we collect?

Our policy regarding this information is simple: We will not sell, trade, rent to, or share with third parties any of your personal information without your permission. As an exception, to protect Site visitors and the general welfare, the Site will release personal information about its users when the law requires us to do so.

The Site and its affiliates may use, reproduce, distribute, and display in whole or in part, in any media, with or without name attribution, the statements, questions or comments you submit through any contact or reader comment pages.

We may collect anonymous, aggregated data for statistical purposes. We may use such information to help determine ways to improve our Site and may share this unattributable information with our affiliates and suppliers.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding what is done with your information or would like such information deleted from our records, please e-mail us at Leroy Gatlin, oklahoma@compub.org.
