Wil Gears (“Wil Gears”) operates wilgears.com and may operate other websites. It is Wil Gears’ policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our websites.
Website Visitors
Like most website operators, Wil Gears 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. Wil Gears’ purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Wil Gears’ visitors use its website. From time to time, Wil Gears may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.
Wil Gears also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged-in users and for users leaving comments on Wil Gears blogs/sites. Wil Gears only discloses logged-in user and commentator IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below, except that commentator 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 Wil Gears’ websites choose to interact with Wil Gears in ways that require Wil Gears to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Wil Gears gathers depend on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up at wilgears.com to provide a username and email address. Those who engage in transactions with Wil Gears are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, Wil Gears collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with Wil Gears. Wil Gears 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.
