This policy is effective as of December 26, 2021. This policy may change at any time without prior notice.

Your privacy is important. I will do my best to safeguard it and protect it. I will only collect and/or ask for information on a need-to-know basis, or as I explicitly state.

Who Gets Your Info?

I will not sell your information or give it to any third parties, except my analytics provider GoatCounter or when I am required to by Federal United States law or the law of any states or subdivisions thereof.

Information I Collect

Assume that I will keep your data indefinitely. I rotate web logs every month, but I may accidentally collect other information which slips between the cracks.

  1. I automatically collect information about your web browser when you visit this site (camconn.cc or any of its subdomains). I do not share this information with third parties, except for my analytics provider GoatCounter. I store browser-related data as anonymized information.
  2. I may collect your email, name, or other relevant information when you voluntarily provide these to leave a comment on this site. I may store information related to your accounts on third party sites when you leave comments through them (e.g. through Google or Twitter).
  3. I collect your coarse location, as determined by your IP address.
  4. There may be other ways that I accidentally collect your data. I’m only human.

How I Use Your Data

In general, I may use your data to publish relevant findings. When I publish these findings I will take care to sufficiently anonymize any data about you that I collect.

  1. I may use your data to improve this website. I may use information I collect about your browser to help me determine what platforms I need to optimize this website for.
  2. I may use data I obtain about you to classify or fight spammy, malicious, or otherwise unwanted behavior. For example, I may implement a spam filter which learns to differentiate between good and bad messages based on your comments.
  3. I may use your data to tell anecdotes (I will try not to reveal your identity). For example, if there is a hacker conference in Maine, and I notice a spike in traffic to my site from Maine, I may point out that I received quite a bit of traffic from that hacker conference in Maine.
  4. I may use your data to publish reports. For example, if I notice that 87% of all of my site’s traffic supports a certain web browser feature I may publish that finding. I will make sure that any personal data is anonymized before I publish it.
