We detest spam. Like most people we get unwanted commercial email and find it highly annoying. We think the full weight of the law should be thrown at those who send unwanted, intrusive, emails of that nature. We never spam.
Subscriptions to our newsletter are “double opt-in,” which means that when an email address is submitted to our list, a verification email is sent to that address. Unless the recipient clicks on a link in that email the subscription is not activated. This means that no one else can add you to our list without your permission (unless they also have access to your email account, in which case you have big problems).
THE INFORMATION THAT WE COLLECT
Wildmind LLC operates the website www.wildmind.org. As part of our operations we may gather different types of information about the users of our sites:

WHO WE SHARE THIS INFORMATION WITH
We will not share the information that we collect with any third parties except for the following:

WHAT ABOUT COOKIES?
A cookie is a small file that resides on your computer and is recognized by our server when you visit our sites. A cookie does not provide us with any personally identifiable information such as your name or email address. It does provide details of your IP address, the computer platform that you use (e.g. Mac or Windows), the browser that you use (e.g. Microsoft Explorer or Firefox) and what domain you are accessing our sites from. With this information we can track traffic patterns to our site, which helps us to make the site more user-friendly.
If you would rather we did not use cookies with you, you can refuse them by turning them off in your browser and/or deleting them from your hard drive. You will still be able to visit our site.
WHAT ABOUT OUR ADVERTISERS AND BUSINESS PARTNERS?
This Privacy Policy only relates to our sites. You should be aware that we are not responsible for the practices of our advertisers or business partners. Our site contains links to other sites. You should check their privacy policies before providing personally identifiable information to them or any other third party.
OPTING IN AND OPTING OUT
You will always have the option to opt in to certain services and to opt out of those services at any stage. This means you may change your mind at any stage about participating in any of our member services.
