LINKS TO OTHER WEB SITES
The Joe Donnelly Design Web site includes
links to Web sites operated by other organizations Joe Donnelly
Design has absolutely no control over the operation of these
Web sites, and their presence on our Web site does not represent
an endorsement. Any personal information that you may provide
to the operators of these Web sites is subject to the specific
privacy policies that apply to the individual sites.
COOKIES
Joe Donnelly Design may collect other
types of anonymous data from Web site users through the
use of "cookies." A "cookie" is a very
small text file that is placed in the browser directory
of your computer's hard drive by various Web site pages.
Any cookies we may place on your system are harmless and
cannot extract information from your hard drive. Joe Donnelly
Design may use cookies in order to measure traffic on our
Web site and convey highly useful information regarding
usage of the site. This technology does not allow Joe Donnelly
Design to systematically gather personal information about
you. Of course, you are always free to reject these cookies
by altering your computer's configuration. Most browsers
allow you to decline cookies (your browser should contain
instructions on how to do this). Should you choose to do
so, you may be prevented from accessing or enabling special
features offered on our sites. Please consult with your
technical department should you have any problems.
AUTOMATIC COLLECTION OF DATA
Periodically Joe Donnelly Design may
record operational information generated by our web server
while delivering web pages to users who visit our sites.
This operational information may be used for aggregate statistical
analysis and site customization. It is data that we can
gather about the user without asking them. This aggregate
statistical analysis is limited to depicting trends based
on information as a whole – it is not part of an effort
to identify the individual identity of Web site visitors.
IP addresses are logged to track user
sessions. An IP address is a unique numerical address used
to route data to and from your computer on the Internet.
When we record an IP address, we associate a visit or series
of visits to each unique IP address. This allows us to collect
a visitor's domain name (e.g. whether the user is logged
on from abc.com, xyz.net, 123.edu, etc.), referral data
(e.g. the last URL a user visited prior to clicking to JDD),
as well as browser and platform type (e.g., a Netscape browser
on a Macintosh computer). We may also include a visitor's
activity into an overall analysis of activity at our site
(e.g., reporting where traffic originates and how it flows
within our site). None of the foregoing would allow either
Joe Donnelly Design or a third party to identify you or
contact you.
SECURITY
Joe Donnelly Design protects your personal
information with several security measures. In addition
to normal precautions such as physical security and firewalls,
we have strict internal security policies.
PRIVACY COMPLAINTS

has not complied with the provisions of this privacy policy,

Joe Donnelly Design reserves the right
to change or enhance the provisions of this privacy policy
