SpringerConnection.com Privacy Policy
At SpringerConnection.com, we are very concerned with the
issue of privacy on the Internet. It is not our intention to use
any information gathered here for personal profit. We are your schoolmates,
and are doing this for the benefit of the group.
What information do we collect?
To help us compile statistics regarding the number of online guests
who visit our site, SpringerConnection.com collects and stores
only the following information: the date and time our site was accessed,
which areas of the site were accessed, the address of any site a
visitor linked from (so we can know how you found the site), and
the name of the domain that was used to access the Internet (i.e.
aol.com, etc.) With this information, we are better able to ensure
the continued usefulness of our site to you and other members.
We also collect the information you provide to us when signing
up as a Member. This information includes your name, and e-mail
address, along with any other member account information you provide.
None of this information is displayed on the web site without your
express permission. Email addresses of the members will not be displayed.
Members may send email messages to other Members using the special
programming buit into the Springer Connection Message Board, but
the Sender will not be able to see the email address of the Member
to whom they are mailing, preserving privacy for all.
SpringerConnection.com uses special coding to hide the email
addresses of members from "robot programs" that search
the web. This allows us to offer another measure of privacy for
our members.
How do we use the information collected?
SpringerConnection.com is a nonprofit service provided for
alumni of Highland Springs High School in Highland Springs, VA.
SpringerConnection.com does not sell information regarding members
to anyone. We will simply use the information you provide to complete
any site functions you have requested. We may also periodically
send you announcements about new features and services, special
announcements, or upcoming events relating to Highland Springs High
School alumni. We DO PROVIDE email addresses of Members to the properly
authorized Highland Springs High School Reunion Committees, allowing
those committees to contact Members with pertinent Reunion Information.
What are "cookies" and how do we use them?
A cookie is a small text file placed on your computer when you visit
a web site. This text file gives your computer a unique identification,
but does not place malicious code on your computer or allow anyone
to trace you as you surf the Internet.
At SpringerConnection.com, we do not use cookies, except
in the following case(s):
- Cookies are used in the "Springer Polls" to prevent
visitors from voting in the same poll more than once, preventing
anyone from "stuffing the ballot box";
- Cookies are used in the "Message Board" to hold your
username and password and viewing options, allowing you to login.
Cookies must be turned on in your browser to participate as a
user in these forums.
Any changes or updates to this Privacy Policy will be posted on
this page.
