About> Privacy

Log Files

The only data normally recorded by us during a user visit are those normally recorded by servers in log files; e.g. referring page, browser, page visited, etc. Every computer connected to the Internet is given a set of numbers that serve as that computer's "Internet Protocol" IP address. When a visitor requests a page from EncycloZine, our Web server automatically records that visitor's IP address. The IP address reveals nothing personal about you other than the IP address from which you have accessed our site. We use this information to examine our traffic in aggregate, but do not collect and evaluate this information for individuals. Our Web servers do not record e-mail addresses of the visitors. We analyse these files to determine basic statistics such as daily traffic, most/least popular pages, etc, but we do not keep any 'personal' data such as email address (which is anyway not available).

Other 3rd Party Services

We cannot speak for other parties whose services we might offer from our site. We do not provide them with any data other than what you type into any page on our site, and you will have to check the privacy policies on their sites to determine what they might do with your data.
