Website Visitors

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

Home-Made High-End also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on our blogs. Home-Made High-End 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.

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information

Home-Made High-End 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 Home-Made High-End’s behalf or to provide services available at Home-Made High-End’s website, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others.

Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, Home-Made High-End discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when Home-Made High-End believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Home-Made High-End, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of this website and have supplied your email address, Home-Made High-End 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 Home-Made High-End and our products. We primarily use the blog 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 support 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. Home-Made High-End takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.

Ads

Ads appearing on any of this website may be delivered to users by advertising partners, who may set cookies. These cookies allow the ad server to recognize your computer each time they send you an online advertisement to compile information about you or others who use your computer. This information allows ad networks to, among other things, deliver targeted advertisements that they believe will be of most interest to you. This Privacy Policy covers the use of cookies by Home-Made High-End and does not cover the use of cookies by any advertisers.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form provided by the visitor, such as their name, username, email address, and the contents of the comment itself, as well as the visitor’s IP address, referrer, site URL, and browser user agent string to help spam detection. 

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Comments and other content submitted to Akismet anti-spam service are not saved on our servers unless they were marked as false positives, in which case we store them long enough to use them to improve the service to avoid future false positives. Learn more about how your comment data is managed by Akismet here. 

Where we send your data

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

Who we share your data with

Home-Made High-End partners with Convertkit for managing its subscriber list. The information shared includes the subscriber’s email address and approximate location. You can get more information by viewing Convertkit’s privacy policy. 

Security

We take our commitment to protect your information seriously. When you submit sensitive information to our Website, the information is protected both online and offline. When our registration and order forms request you to enter sensitive information (credit card or social security numbers), the information is encrypted and is protected with SSL technology.

Even though we use SSL encryption technology to protect your sensitive information online, we also employ internal procedures to protect sensitive information offline. Due to the nature of technology, you are also partially responsible for the security of their information. Since people have become accustomed to the internet, browser technology has made it easier for everyone to return to their favorite websites without re-entering their usernames and passwords. While this is easier for surfing, when Personally Identifiable Information is associated with the log-in information, your security could be affected. We strongly recommend that you do not save their username and password in your browsers and that you either remember their log-in information or store your usernames and passwords separately to avoid unauthorized access to your information from your devices.

We also offer the following advice:

• If you share your device with other people, remember to log off our Website before leaving it.
• Don’t share your password with anyone. If you store your log in information in your computer, remember to password protect that information. No one from our Website will ever ask for your password.
• If asked, don’t give out your personal information.
• If you are unsure about the information you are providing, ask us, another administrator, or another person before posting the information.
• If there is information that you would not like to see in your local newspaper, don’t post it to our Website.

Privacy Policy Changes

Although most changes are likely to be minor, Home-Made High-End may change its Privacy Policy from time to time, and in Home-Made High-End’s sole discretion. Home-Made High-End encourages visitors to frequently check this page for any changes to its Privacy Policy. Your continued use of this site after any change in this Privacy Policy will constitute your acceptance of such change.
