Our Commitment

The WCCWG Gallery (“WCCWG”) respects your concern about privacy. This privacy policy will tell you how we protect your personal information, and will describe the choices you have concerning our use of such information.  Please read this policy carefully.  We may need to change this policy from time to time in order to address new issues and reflect changes on our site.  We will post changes here so that you will always know what information we gather, how we might use that information, and whether we will disclose that information to anyone.  Please refer to this policy regularly.

Personally identifiable information

The choice of how much of your personally identifiable information is disclosed to WCCWG is left completely up to you.

Collection of IP addresses:  When visiting any Internet site your unique address, called an “IP address”, is recorded. The amount of information about users made available from their IP addresses varies greatly, for instance depending on how they are connected to the Internet. WCCWG does not release any information about the collection of this address to any third parties. WCCWG archives the logging of IP addresses for security reasons. 

Anonymous Information:

WCCWG collects and archives basic logging for site stats. These log files show the daily number of visitors to our site and its subdirectories, the daily requests we receive for particular files, what server locations those requests come from, including from which countries, as well as the domain name of the server or browser accessing the WCCWG site. These aggregated statistics are primarily used internally to provide better services to the public, but may also be provided to others

Non-disclosure

The one exception is that, although unlikely, WCCWG may be required by law enforcement or judicial authorities to provide personally identifiable information. In these cases, we will provide this information as and to the extent we have determined that the disclosure of any such information is appropriate.

Cookies
