Privacy Policy
Your privacy is very important to us. At Creek Road Pottery LLC, we have a few fundamental principles that guide us:
- We don’t ask for personal information unless we truly need it. (We dislike services that ask for unnecessary details like your gender or income level without clear justification.)
- We don’t share your personal information except to comply with the law, develop our products, or protect our rights.
- We don’t store personal information on our servers unless required for the ongoing operation of our site.
Website Visitors
Like most website operators, Creek Road Pottery LLC collects non-personally-identifying information typically provided by web browsers and servers, such as browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. This information helps us better understand how visitors use our website. From time to time, Creek Road Pottery LLC may release aggregated, non-personally-identifying information (e.g., publishing reports on website usage trends).
We also collect potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged-in users and users leaving comments on our blogs. IP addresses of blog commenters are visible and disclosed to administrators of the respective blog but are otherwise treated as described in this policy.
Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information
Certain visitors to Creek Road Pottery LLC’s website choose to interact with us in ways that require the collection of personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information gathered depend on the nature of the interaction. For example:
- Visitors who comment on our blog are asked to provide a username and email address.
- Those who wish to receive email updates are asked to provide their email address.
In all cases, we collect information only as necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with Creek Road Pottery LLC. Visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, though this may limit their ability to engage in certain website-related activities.
Aggregated Statistics
Creek Road Pottery LLC may collect statistics about visitor behavior on our website. For example, we may monitor the most popular pages or use spam-screening tools like Akismet to identify and manage spam. We may publicly display aggregated statistics or share them with others, but we do not disclose personally-identifying information except as described in this policy.
Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information
Creek Road Pottery LLC discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to employees, contractors, and affiliated organizations that:
- Need to know the information to process it on our behalf or provide services available on our website.
- Have agreed not to disclose it to others.
Some of these individuals may be located outside your home country. By using our website, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. Creek Road Pottery LLC does not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than as described above, we disclose such information only in response to legal requirements (e.g., subpoenas, court orders) or when necessary to protect the property, rights, or safety of Creek Road Pottery LLC, our users, or the public.
If you are a registered user and provide your email address, we may occasionally send you emails about new features, solicit your feedback, or keep you updated on Creek Road Pottery LLC’s activities. We primarily use our product blogs to communicate this information and aim to minimize email correspondence. If you contact us via support email or other feedback mechanisms, we reserve the right to publish your message to help clarify or respond to your request or assist other users. We take all reasonably necessary measures to protect against unauthorized access, use, alteration, or destruction of personally-identifying information.
Cookies
A cookie is a small piece of data stored on a visitor’s computer that the visitor’s browser provides to the website upon each return. Creek Road Pottery LLC uses cookies to identify and track visitors, their website usage, and access preferences. Visitors who prefer not to have cookies placed on their computers should configure their browsers to refuse cookies before using our website. Note that certain features of our website may not function properly without cookies.
Business Transfers
In the unlikely event that Creek Road Pottery LLC is acquired or goes out of business, user information would be one of the assets transferred or acquired by a third party. By using our website, you acknowledge that such transfers may occur and that any acquirer may continue to use your personal information as described in this policy.
Ads
Ads appearing on our websites may be delivered by advertising partners who may use cookies to recognize your device and compile information about you or others who use your device. This information helps ad networks deliver targeted advertisements. This Privacy Policy covers the use of cookies by Creek Road Pottery LLC but does not cover cookies used by advertisers.
Comments
Comments and other content submitted to the Akismet anti-spam service are not saved on our servers unless flagged as false positives. In such cases, we retain the information long enough to improve the service and avoid future false positives.
Privacy Policy Changes
While most changes are likely minor, Creek Road Pottery LLC may update its Privacy Policy from time to time at its sole discretion. We encourage visitors to check this page regularly for updates. Your continued use of our site after any changes to this policy constitutes your acceptance of those changes.
