Privacy Statement

It's important that you understand my privacy position. As a private company, Nighthawk Studio is a entity subject to the laws of the United States, State of Missouri and Cole County. If an appropriate request is made for information that is subject to said laws, Nighthawk Studio will comply. Otherwise, all information is held in confidence and is considered as part of the trust placed in Nighthawk Studio and all its parties.

In order to complete current or future online transactions, I usually collect information from you, including your email address, your postal address, an identification number or other piece of personal information. My online forms should indicate the information that is required and the information that is optional — you do not have to complete the "optional" fields on a form. For me to be able to complete your online transactions, however, you must supply the required information. If this is not acceptable to you, I will gladly accept the transaction in person or on paper, rather than online. Providing personal information online will always be your choice. The personal information that you supply will not be sold to others.

Browsing
To ensure our system remains available to all visitors, our operating system tracks unauthorized attempts to upload or change information, or that can otherwise cause damage.

While you browse the web site, the Internet service provider's operating system will automatically record the following information:

  • The name of the domain from which you accessed our web site. For example, if you are connecting from an America Online account, the fact that someone who visited this web site uses AOL as an Internet service provider (ISP) will be known, but the individual e-mail address of the user will not be known.
  • The date and time any page on our site was accessed.
  • The address (also called the URL) of the web site from which any page on this site was linked. However, as discussed above, your identity remains unknown.
  • The type of browser being used, such as "Mozilla Firefox Version X.X" or "Internet Explorer Version X.X".
  • The type of operating system you use such as Macintosh, Unix, or Windows.

This tracking system does NOT record information about individuals. This information is used to monitor traffic and improve this site.

Security
For security purposes, my ISP uses network monitoring software to identify unauthorized access to or tampering with my web site. The software will not collect any personal information. If unauthorized access to or tampering with this web site is detected, the information gathered by them will be furnished to the proper authorities.

E-mail
If you send me email, the message will usually contain your return address. If you include personal information in your email, I may use that information in responding to your request. Email is not necessarily secure or confidential. Send only the information that is necessary for me to answer your question or process your request.

Requests for Information
There may be various locations on this web site where you may request that information, such as applications, be mailed to you. Should you make a request for information, the personally identifiable information you disclose as part of making that request is disclosed to me or future staff at Nighthawk Studio so that your request may be fulfilled.

Links to Other Sites
Our site may provide links to other web sites. The privacy policies described here do NOT apply to any external sites. Read the privacy policies of other sites you visit. Be informed. You are the person best qualified to protect your own privacy.

Notice of Change to Policy
I will post any changes in this privacy policy at least 30 days prior to the change taking effect unless ordered by a court to do so sooner.
