Privacy Statement

I do not set out to collect personal information from visitors to currybetdotnet.

However, the site does use some software and third party services which have some privacy implications, and I wanted to set those out clearly for users.

Movable Type

When you leave a comment on the site, the Movable Type software powering this blog captures your IP address.

You are able to submit an email address and web URL with any comment. These items are personally identifiable.

Your email address will not be published on the site, although I may use it to contact you directly about your comment. Your website URL, if you submit one, will be published on the site.

I do not use the rel="nofollow" attribute on links in comments. If you have posted a contribution to my site, your URL deserves any search engine juice it derives from appearing on currybetdotnet.

Google Analytics

I use Google Analytics to measure the usage of currybetdotnet.

This does not provide me with personally identifiable data, but I can see which links people have followed to reach the site, which technical platforms they are using, which search terms they used, and where visitors came from geographically.

This data is collected using an anonymous traffic tracking cookie from Google.

The RSS feed for currybetdotnet is optimised using a service called FeedBurner, which is owned by Google. This allows me to see how many people are subscribed to my RSS feeds, using which readers, and which items are clicked upon. Again, the information is not personally identifiable.
