PRIVACY POLICY
my privacy policy
I am providing this Privacy Policy to inform you of my policies and procedures regarding the collection, use and disclosure of personally identifiable information received from users of this website, located at https://BlakeHansen.com (“Site” ). These policies apply to any business transacted by myself, Blake Hansen, as an individual.
By using my Site you are consenting to my processing of your information as set forth in this Privacy Policy now and as amended by me. “Processing” means using cookies on a computer or using or touching information in any way, including, but not limited to, collecting, storing, deleting, using, combining and disclosing information, all of which activities will take place in the United States (US). If you reside outside the US your personally identifiable information will be transferred to the US, and processed and stored there under US privacy standards.
By visiting my Site and providing information to us, you consent to such transfer to, and processing in the US.
INFORMATION COLLECTION AND USE
If you sign up for the email newsletter, you give me your email address and I send you emails. I won’t send you a ton, and I won’t send you ads for third-party products. You’ll get updates, roughly once a week, that include details about updates made on this website. From time to time I may send out a special email because there’s something going on that I think you’ll want to know about that.
When you visit the Site, my servers automatically record information that your browser sends whenever you visit a website (“Log Data”). This Log Data may include information such as your IP address, browser type or the domain from which you are visiting, the web-pages you visit, the search terms you use, and any advertisements on which you click. For most users accessing the Internet from an Internet service provider the IP address will be different every time you log on. I use Log Data to monitor the use of the Site and of my Service, and for the Site’s technical administration. I do not associate your IP address with any other personally identifiable information to identify you personally.
Like many websites, I also use “cookie” technology to collect additional website usage data and to improve the Site and my service. A cookie is a small data file that I transfer to your computer’s hard disk. I do not use cookies to collect personally identifiable information. I may use both session cookies and persistent cookies to better understand how you interact with the Site and my Service, to monitor aggregate usage by my users and web traffic routing on the Site, and to improve the Site and my services. A session cookie enables certain features of the Site and my service and is deleted from your computer when you disconnect from or leave the Site. A persistent cookie remains after you close your browser and may be used by your browser on subsequent visits to the Site. Persistent cookies can be removed by following your web browser help file directions. Most Internet browsers automatically accept cookies. You can instruct your browser, by editing its options, to stop accepting cookies or to prompt you before accepting a cookie from the websites you visit.
INFORMATION SHARING AND DISCLOSURE
Service Providers
We engage certain trusted third parties to perform functions and provide services to us, including, without limitation, hosting and maintenance, billing, customer relationship, database storage and management, and direct marketing campaigns. I will share your personally identifiable information with these third parties, only pursuant to binding contractual obligations requiring such third parties to maintain the privacy and security of your data.
Compliance with Laws and Law Enforcement
I cooperate with government and law enforcement officials or private parties to enforce and comply with the law. I may disclose any information about you to government or law enforcement officials or private parties as we, in my sole discretion, believe necessary or appropriate to respond to claims, legal process (including subpoenas), to protect the property and rights of me or a third party, the safety of the public or any person, to prevent or stop any illegal, unethical, or legally actionable activity, or to comply with the law.
Business Transfers
I may sell, transfer or otherwise share some or all of its assets, including your personally identifiable information, in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization or sale of assets or in the event of bankruptcy. You will have the opportunity to opt out of any such transfer if the new entity’s planned processing of your information differs materially from that set forth in this Privacy Policy.
SECURITY
I am very concerned about safeguarding the confidentiality of your personally identifiable information. I employ administrative, physical and electronic measures designed to protect your information from unauthorized access. I will make any legally-required disclosures of any breach of the security, confidentiality, or integrity of your unencrypted electronically stored personal data to you via email or conspicuous posting on this Site in the most expedient time possible and without unreasonable delay, consistent with (i) the legitimate needs of law enforcement or (ii) any measures necessary to determine the scope of the breach and restore the reasonable integrity of the data system.
LINKS TO OTHER WEBSITES
Our Site contains links to other websites. The fact that I link to a website is not an endorsement, authorization or representation of my affiliation with that third party. I do not exercise control over third party websites. These other websites may place their own cookies or other files on your computer, collect data or solicit personally identifiable information from you. Other sites follow different rules regarding the use or disclosure of the personally identifiable information you submit to them. I encourage you to read the privacy policies or statements of the other websites you visit.
MY POLICY TOWARDS CHILDREN
I love kids and have a bunch of them myself, but the Site is not directed to persons under 13. If a parent or guardian becomes aware that his or her child has provided me with personally identifiable information without their consent, he or she should contact me. I do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under 13. If I become aware that a child under 13 has provided me with personal identifiable Information, I will delete such information from my files.
CHANGES TO THIS POLICY
This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time for any reason; each version will apply to information collected while it was in place. I will notify you of any material changes to my Privacy Policy by posting the new Privacy Policy on my Site. You are advised to consult this Privacy Policy regularly for any changes, or if you just like reading it.
This Privacy Policy is effective as of February 21st, 2022.
