Privacy Policy

Like most website operators, SeanPritzkau.com 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.

SeanPritzkau.com’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how SeanPritzkau.com’s visitors use its website. From time to time, SeanPritzkau.com may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

SeanPritzkau.com also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. SeanPritzkau.com does not use such information to identify its visitors, however, and does not disclose such information, other than under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information, as described below.

Certain visitors to SeanPritzkau.com’s websites choose to interact with SeanPritzkau.com in ways that require SeanPritzkau.com to gather personally-identifying information.

For example, we offer visitors who wish to subscribe for updates or enroll in free and/or paid programs to provide their name and email address. In each case, SeanPritzkau.com collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with SeanPritzkau.com.

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

SeanPritzkau.com discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors, and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on SeanPritzkau.com’s behalf or to provide services available at SeanPritzkau.com’s websites, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using SeanPritzkau.com’s websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them.

I primarily use my blog to communicate this type of information, so I expect to keep this type of email to a minimum. If you send me a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), I reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help support other users. SeanPritzkau.com takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration, or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
