Website Visitors

Like most website operators, we collect non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. Suburban Man Cave’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Suburban Man Cave’s visitors use its website. From time to time, Suburban Man Cave may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

Suburban Man Cave also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on our blogs. Suburban Man Cave only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below, except that blog commenter IP addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators of the blog where the comment was left.

Gathering of Personally Identifying Information

Certain visitors to Suburban Man Cave’s website choose to interact with Suburban Man Cave in ways that require Suburban Man Cave to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Suburban Man Cave gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who comment on our blog to provide a username and email address. Those who wish to receive Blog Tyrant updates via email, we collect their emails. In each case, Suburban Man Cave collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with Suburban Man Cave. Suburban Man Cave does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.

Protection of Certain Personally Identifying Information

Suburban Man Cave discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on Suburban Man Cave’s behalf or to provide services available at Suburban Man Cave’s website, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using Suburban Man Cave’s website, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. Suburban Man Cave will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, Suburban Man Cave discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when Suburban Man Cave believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Suburban Man Cave, third parties, or the public at large. If you are a registered user of a Suburban Man Cave website and have supplied your email address, Suburban Man Cave may occasionally send you an email to tell you about news, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with Suburban Man Cave and our products. We primarily use our various product blogs to communicate this type of information, so we expect to keep this type of email to a minimum. If you send us a request (for example via a contact email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. Suburban Man Cave takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
