Your privacy is very important to us. In 1997, I wrote a story for The New York Times discussing privacy and anonymity
on the Internet. My background in journalism leaves me uncomfortable with the tracking
ability of the Internet and we do not intend to abuse that ability. Brier
Associates respects your concerns about maintaining strict privacy. Any
information that you divulge to us is kept in confidence.
We do not collect personally identifiable information on our web site or otherwise
unless you choose to give it to us via an electronic mail message, a phone call, or by
postal mail. Even when you choose to give us information, we keep it confidential.
We do not sell, rent, share, or otherwise disclose mailing lists or other personally
identifiable information. We do maintain a client list as part of our technology
consulting business, and a second list of sources for the writing business. We do not,
however, provide this information to anyone else unless you give us your permission.
We do not enable cookies on our web site. The server of our Internet Service
Provider collects information about the date and time in which our web site was accessed
and the Internet address of the web site from which you linked to our site. We do not
analyze this information, though we do occasionally look at it. (Mostly in amazement,
trying to figure out how people heard of the site. Why, for example, was someone in Sweden
looking us over?) E-mail addresses and other personally identifiable information are
not available to us.
If you have any questions or concerns about this privacy policy, please feel free to
contact us at our e-mail address, privacy@brierassociates.com.
