Privacy policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Gendersec.tacticaltech.org gathers and uses Users data when they visit Gendersec.tacticaltech.org.

Website visitors

Like most website operators, Gendersec.tacticaltech.org collects 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.  Gendersec.tacticaltech.org’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Gendersec.tacticaltech.org’s visitors use its website. From time to time, Gendersec.tacticaltech.org may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

Gendersec.tacticaltech.org also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. Gendersec.tacticaltech.org does not use such information to identify its visitors, however, and does not disclose such information, other than under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information, as described below.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to Gendersec.tacticaltech.org’s websites choose to interact withGendersec.tacticaltech.org in ways that require Gendersec.tacticaltech.org to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Gendersec.tacticaltech.org gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who use our mailing lists to provide an email address. In each case, Gendersec.tacticaltech.org collects such information only as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with Gendersec.tacticaltech.org. Gendersec.tacticaltech.org 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

Gendersec.tacticaltech.org will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. If you are a registered user of a Gendersec.tacticaltech.org newsletter and have supplied your email address, Gendersec.tacticaltech.org may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with Gendersec.tacticaltech.org. We primarily use our blog to communicate this type of information, so we expect to keep this type of email to a minimum. Gendersec.tacticaltech.org takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration, or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.

Aggregated Statistics

Gendersec.tacticaltech.org may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites.
