Website Visitors

Like most website operators, Super Fun Time Productions 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. Super Fun Time Productions' purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Super Fun Time Productions' visitors use its website. From time to time, Super Fun Time Productions may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

Super Fun Time Productions also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on DamnGoodWriters.com blogs/sites. Super Fun Time Productions only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below, except that commenter IP addresses and email addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators of the blog/site where the comment was left.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to Super Fun Time Productions' websites choose to interact with Super Fun Time Productions in ways that require Super Fun Time Productions to gather personally-identifying information.

Those who engage in transactions with Super Fun Time Productions are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, Super Fun Time Productions collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor's interaction with Super Fun Time Productions. Super Fun Time Productions does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. 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.
