PonderEthereal is the sole owner of the information collected on ponderethereal.com. PonderEthereal may collect information from our users at several different points on ponderethereal.com.
In order to enhance their use of ponderethereal.com, users can choose to leave comments on particular articles of interest. To leave a comment, users must submit information including a valid email address. PonderEthereal uses this information to screen out users who leave comments prohibited by our terms and conditions of use, and will not pass this information to any other organization.
A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user's computer tied to information about the user. We may use both session ID cookies and persistent cookies. For the session ID cookie, once users close the browser, the cookie simply terminates. A persistent cookie is a small text file stored on the user?s hard drive for an extended period of time. Persistent cookies can be removed by following Internet browser help file directions.
By setting a cookie on ponderethereal.com, users will not have to log in a password more than once, thereby saving time while on the site. We store a cookie on each user's machine that contains a username and encrypted password. You can configure your browser to accept all cookies, reject all cookies, or notify you when a cookie is set. If you reject all cookies, you may not be able to take full advantage of all offerings. However, not all PonderEthereal services require that you accept cookies.
Like most standard Web site servers we use log files. This includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, platform type, date/time stamp, and number of clicks to analyze trends, administer the site, track user?s movement in the aggregate, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. IP addresses, etc. are not linked to personally identifiable information. We may use a tracking utility that uses log files to analyze user movement.
Though we make every effort to preserve user privacy, PonderEthereal may need to disclose personal information when required by law wherein we have a good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with a current judicial proceeding, a court order or legal process served on any of ponderethereal.com.
In the event PonderEthereal goes through a business transition, such as a merger, acquisition by another company, or sale of a portion of its assets, users' personal information will, in most instances, be part of the assets transferred.
ponderethereal.com contains links to other sites. Please be aware that PonderEthereal is not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every Web site that collects personally identifiable information. This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by PonderEthereal.
The ads appearing on this Web site are delivered to users by Google, Amazon.com, tootimid.com and petsmart.com among other services. Information about users' visit to this site, such as number of times they have viewed an ad (but not username, date of birth, or any other personal information), is used to serve ads to users on this site.
Some of our business partners may use cookies on our site (for example, advertisers). However, PonderEthereal has no access to or control over these cookies, once we have given permission for them to set cookies for advertising. This privacy statement covers the use of cookies by PonderEthereal only and does not cover the use of cookies by any advertisers.
