Privacy Statement
The web is full of big, legal-sounding privacy statements. In keeping with the theme of YourOwnDoorStep.com, ours is going to be nice and simple. The only information you’ll ever give us is an email address. Here are are the situations in which you might give us your email address along with what we’ll do with it:
- You subcribe to our updates via email.
In this case, we’ll send you email updates whenever a new article is posted. And really, that’s it. In order to send you updates, we have to store your email address and we do so securely. We manage our email subscriptions using FeedBurner.com, which is owned by Google. Your email address is safe. - You use our our “Tell A Friend About YourOwnDoorStep.com” form to let one of your friends know about this site.
In this case, we send one email to the address you gave us. We will never send a follow up to that email. In fact, we don’t even save the email address. - You use the “Share This” feature found after every post and choose to share that post with someone via email.
In this case, one email is sent to the address you provide through SharedThis.com. We will never send a follow up to that email. In fact, we don’t even save the email address. - You choose to leave a comment on one of the articles.
In order to leave a comment you’ll have to provide your email address, but it will not be displayed anywhere on the site.
We will absolutely never:
- Send you (or anyone else) spam
- Share or sell your email address
- Collect and store email addresses other than when someone opts in to our email updates or leaves a comment on an article
- Add anyone to our email updates list without them having voluntarily opted in
- Refuse to unsubscribe someone who requests to unsubscribe from our email updates
