Information collected by Privacy Shell

 

We may collect personal identification information from Users in a variety of ways, including, but not limited to, when Users visit our site, register on the site, fill out a form, and in connection with other activities, services, features or resources we make available on our Site. Users may be asked for, as appropriate, name, email address. Users may, however, visit our Site anonymously. We will collect personal identification information from Users only if they voluntarily submit such information to us. Users can always refuse to supply personally identification information, except that it may prevent them from engaging in certain Site related activities.

​

Non-personal identification information

​

We receive and store certain types of information whenever you interact with us. Privacy Shell and its authorized agents automatically receive and record certain “traffic data” on their server logs from your browser including your IP address, Privacy Shell cookie information, and the page you requested. Privacy Shell uses this traffic data to help diagnose problems with its servers, analyze trends and administer the website.

​

​

Web browser cookies

​

Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers that we transfer to your computer’s hard drive through your Web browser to enable our systems to recognize your browser and tell us how and when pages in our website are visited and by how many people. Several areas of the Privacy Shell website use cookies to recognize logged in users or to store settings. Cookies are not evaluated in any other manner and are never used to track website visitors.

 

The “help” portion of your browser toolbar will direct you on how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to command the browser to tell you when you receive a new cookie, or how to fully disable cookies. We recommend that you leave the cookies activated because cookies allow you to use some of Privacy Shell’s best features.

​

​

You must be 14 years and older to register to use the Privacy Shell website. As a result, Privacy Shell does not specifically collect information about children. If we learn that Privacy Shell has collected information from a child under the age of 13, we will delete that information as quickly as possible. We recommend that minors between the ages of 14 and 18 ask and receive their parents’ permission before using Privacy Shell or sending information about themselves or anyone else over the Internet.

​
