PLEASE READ THIS PRIVACY POLICY CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THIS SITE.
Privacy Policy Consent
This website and its content is owned by Robert Stevenson (“I,” “Me,” “My,” or “Myself”).
This Privacy Policy (“Policy”) administers the information collection methods of the Site. Specifically, it outlines the types of information the Site gathers about the user/viewer (“You,” “Your.” or “Yourself“) while You are using www.NoRidgePark.com (the “Site”) and the ways in which Robert Stevenson, owner of the Site, collects and uses this information. I am committed to protecting Your privacy online. This Policy covers personally identifiable information (“Personal Data“), anonymous data collection, and aggregated reporting. Personal Data is any information that is associated with Your name or personal identity. By visiting and using the Site, You are consenting to this Policy.
To protect Your privacy, I provide this notice explaining My online information practices and the choices You can make about the way Your information is collected and used. To make this notice easy to find, I make it available on the Site’s Home page and at every point where Personal Data may be requested.
This Policy describes how I collect, use, process, and distribute Your information, including Your Personal Data used to access this Site. I will not use or share Your Personal Data with anyone except as described in this Policy. The use of Personal Data collected through My Site shall be limited to the purposes under this Policy and My Terms and Conditions of Use to You.
Use of any Personal Data or contribution You provide to Me, or which is collected by Me on or through My Site or its content is governed by this Policy. By using My Site or its content, You consent to this Policy, whether or not You have read it.
Information I May Collect
With each visit to the Site, the Web server automatically recognizes only Your IP address, but not Your email address, unless You volunteer Your first name and an email address by filling out a Web form. The Site electronically collects the email addresses of those who complete online Web forms and of those who communicate with the Site via email. If You do not want to receive emails from the Site in the future, You may simply let Me know by responding to any system email by clicking on the unsubscribe link at the bottom. This will remove Your email address from the Site’s database as well as from all newsletters and emails.
I collect Personal Data from You so I can provide You with a positive experience when utilizing My Site and/or content. I will only collect the minimum amount of information necessary for Me to fulfill My obligation to You. Personal Data I may collect:
Please note that the Personal Data You are providing Me is voluntary and, by You providing it, You are giving consent for Me to use, collect, and process Your Personal Data. You are welcome to opt-out or request for Me to delete Your Personal Data at any point by contacting me at BobS@klacpa.net.
If You choose not to provide Me with certain Personal Data, You may not be able to participate in certain aspects of My Site or content.
Other Information I May Collect:
Anonymous Data Collection and Use
To maintain My Site’s high quality, I may use Your IP address to help diagnose problems with My server and to administer the Site by identifying which areas of the Site are most heavily used as well as to display content according to Your preferences. Your IP address is the number assigned to computers connected to the Internet. This is essentially “traffic data” which cannot personally identify You in any way. Traffic data collection does not follow a user’s activities on any other websites in any way. Anonymous traffic data may also be shared with business partners and advertisers on an aggregate basis.
Use of Cookies
Cookies are small files that a site or its service provider transfers to Your computer’s hard drive through Your Web browser (if You allow) that enables the Website’s or service provider’s systems to recognize Your browser and capture and remember certain information.
I may use the standard cookies feature of major Web browsers to help Me understand and save Your preferences for future visits and compile aggregate data about Site traffic and Site interaction so I can offer better Site experiences and tools in the future. I may contract with third-party service providers to assist Me in better understanding My Site visitors. These service providers are not permitted to use the information collected on My behalf. I do not set any personally identifiable information or Personal Data in cookies nor do I employ any data-capture mechanisms on My Site other than cookies.
You have the choice to accept or decline/disable cookies through Your own Web browser’s settings. Most Web browsers automatically accept the use of cookies, but You may modify Your browser settings to decline the use of cookies. However, declining the use of cookies may diminish Your experience on My Site or prevent You from logging in correctly, when applicable, and may decrease the functionality of the Site on Your computer.

Any of the information I collect from You may be used in any of the following ways:
1) To personalize Your experience; Your information helps Me to better respond to Your individual needs.

3) With Your consent, to send periodic emails. I may contact You if You give Me Your clear, unambiguous, affirmative consent to contact You.
Please keep in mind that whenever You voluntarily make Your Personal Data available for viewing by third parties online, for example on message boards, through email, or the like, that information can be seen, collected and used by others besides Me. I am not responsible for any unauthorized third-party use of such information. My Site also includes links to other Websites and provides access to products and services offered by third parties, whose privacy policies the Site does not control. When You access another Website or purchase third-party products or services, the use of any information You provide to them is governed by the privacy policy of the operator of the Website You are visiting or the provider of such products or services.
I respect Your privacy. Your information, whether public or private, will not be sold, exchanged, transferred, shared, rented, or given to any other company or marketer for any reason whatsoever, without Your consent.
