Your privacy on the Internet is of the utmost importance to us.
At StuffSafe we want to make your experience online satisfying and safe.
Because we gather certain types of information about our users, we feel you should fully
understand the terms and conditions surrounding the capture and use of that
information. This privacy statement discloses what information we gather and how we
use it.
Information that StuffSafe Gathers and Collects
StuffSafe gathers two types of information about users:
1. Information that users provide through optional, voluntary submissions. These
are voluntary submissions through the Join the Community form and the contact StuffSafe form.
2. Information StuffSafe gathers through aggregated tracking information derived
mainly by tallying page views throughout our site. This information allows us to
better tailor our content and services to our customers' needs.
StuffSafe Gathers User Information In The Following Processes:
Optional Voluntary Information
We offer the following free services, which require some type of voluntary submission of
personal information by users:
'Join the Community' Member Registration
We request an email address from the user before they can access our member areas.
This information must be gathered in order to assign each user a unique user account. A
user account allows the user to upload and store resources (photos, text, messages) on the site for the
purpose of contributing their knowledge to the StuffSafe community.
Children
Consistent with the Federal Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 (COPPA),
we will never knowingly request personally identifiable information from anyone under
the age of 13 without requesting parental consent.
Usage tracking
StuffSafe tracks user traffic patterns throughout the site. However, we do not
correlate this information with data about individual users. StuffSafe does break down
overall usage statistics according to a user's domain name, browser type, and MIME
type by reading this information from the browser string (information contained in every
user's browser).
Cookies
StuffSafe does not use cookies.
Use of Information
StuffSafe uses any information voluntarily given by our users to enhance their
experience on our website, whether to provide interactive or personalized
elements on the sites or to better prepare future content based on the interests of our
users.
As stated above, we do gather email addresses from our users. This information
is only used to communicate to the user during the signup process ('Join the Community' link),
relaying messages sent from other users through the MyTeam section of the website and
distribution of opt-in email newsletters and promotions. StuffSafe never
shares newsletter mailing lists or individual email addresses with any third parties,
including advertisers, sponsors or partners.
When we use tracking information to determine which areas of our sites users like and
don't like based on traffic to those areas. We do not track what individual users read, but
rather how well each page performs overall. This helps us continue to build a better
service for you.
StuffSafe creates aggregate reports on user demographics and traffic patterns.
Because we don't track the usage patterns of individual users, we will not disclose any
information about any individual user except to comply with applicable law or valid legal
process or to protect the personal safety of our users or the public.
SECURITY
StuffSafe operates secure data networks protected by industry standard firewall and
password protection systems. Our security and privacy policies are periodically reviewed
and enhanced as necessary and only authorized individuals have access to the
information provided by our customers.
Opt-out Policy
We give users options wherever necessary and practical. Such choices include:
- Opting not to register to receive our electronic newsletters.
- Opting not to participate in certain interactive areas, which completely alleviates
the need to gather any personally identifiable information from our users.
YOUR CONSENT
By using this site, you consent to the collection and use of this information by StuffSafe.
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes on this page so that you
are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances we
disclose it. If, at this time, you have concerns or questions about the StuffSafe privacy
policy, please email us at
