Privacy Policy

This policy was last modified on May 19, 2008. See below for details.

I collect no information from my visitors. I have no forms to fill out. I don't want your email address. I don't want to know anything about you except for maybe one thing ... can I win any money from you at poker! I had to post this page for legal reasons. If I ever start asking you personal questions ... you'll be the first to know!

HomePokerTourney.com Privacy Policy

I have created this privacy policy to demonstrate my firm commitment to your privacy and the protection of your information.

What information do I collect?

I collect no information from the visitors to my site other than the standard web server logs that are created by almost every server on the internet. This site does not use cookies.

If you email HomePokerTourney, we will require your e-mail address so that we can send you a reply. We will not share, sell, or rent that email address with any person or organization without your advance permission or unless ordered by a court of law.

How I protect your privacy

I use highly sophisticated security measures to protect against the loss, misuse and alteration of data used on my system(s).

Sharing and usage of information

I will never share, sell, or rent individual personal information with any person or organization without your advance permission or unless ordered by a court of law. Information submitted is only available to employees managing this information for purposes of contacting you or sending you emails based on your request for information and to contracted service providers for purposes of providing services relating to our dealings with you.

While your individual information is protected as outlined above, I do reserve the right to use aggregated, anonymous data about my users as a whole. For example, I may report to advertisers what page is the most popular with my visitors. I may keep track of the number of clicks on certain ads and report this information to advertisers.

I never send bulk email

If you have received unwanted, unsolicited email sent via this system or purporting to be sent via this system, please forward a copy of that email with your comments to the email address shown on the Contact Me page.
