To assist you in understanding the ways information you may submit to us will be treated once you visit and use various features on our web site, The Gralien Report (www.gralienreport.com) offers this Privacy Policy. Use of the gralienreport.com web site, and disclosure to us of your personal information, is optional and voluntary. By visiting gralienreport.com, you are accepting and agreeing to the practices described in this Policy. The following paragraphs describe the type of information gralienreport.com collects, the reasons why such information is collected, how such information is used and who has access to it.

GENERAL INFORMATION
We would like you to be aware that gralienreport.com’s Privacy Policy may likely change from time to time, without notice to you. You should read this Privacy Policy each time you plan to submit personally identifiable information to ensure that you understand how the information you send us will be used. Also, please note that any changes made to this Privacy Policy will be prospective, not retroactive.

Gralienreport.com is not responsible for the information practices of third parties, although we take care to engage third party fulfillment processors, ad servers, survey companies and other support services that respect your privacy, preferences and data security needs.

HOW AND WHY WE COLLECT INFORMATION
Gralienreport.com collects information that is provided voluntarily by visitors to our site. Certain identifying information, such as name, street address, city, state, zip code and email address, may be gathered at certain interactive areas on the site (for instance, when you log in to post comments, you may be asked to submit an email address or personal URL/website address).

REGARDING THE USE OF COOKIES AND IP ADDRESSES
As with most other websites, we collect and use the data contained in log files. The information in the log files include your IP (internet protocol) address, your ISP (internet service provider, such as AOL), the browser you used to visit our site (such as Internet Explorer or Firefox), the time you visited our site and which pages you visited throughout our site. Gralienreport.com may use data contained in log files to analyze trends, administer the site, track users’ movement and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use.

Placing advertisement in various areas on gralienreport.com helps us support our site. We allow third-party companies to serve ads and/or collect certain anonymous information when you visit our web site. These companies may use non-personally identifiable information (e.g., click stream information, browser type, time and date, subject of advertisements clicked or scrolled over) during your visits to this and other Web sites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services likely to be of greater interest to you. These companies typically use a cookie or third party web beacon to collect this information. To learn more about this behavioral advertising practice or, to learn ways you can increase your privacy or even opt-out of this type of advertising, visit this link: networkadvertising.org.

Some of these advertisers may use technology that includes cookies or web beacons when they advertise with us, which will also send these advertisers (such as InfoLinks and Google’s AdSense program) information including your IP address, your ISP, the browser you used to visit our site, and in some cases, whether you have Flash installed. This is generally used for geo-targeting purposes or showing certain ads based on specific sites visited.

USE OF COLLECTED INFORMATION
Gralienreport.com may use information collected to create reports on user demographics and traffic patterns to help our advertisers. This allows them to advertise more effectively, and allows our users the benefit of receiving advertisements that are pertinent to their interests. We also use this sort of tracking information to determine which areas of our site users like and do not like based on traffic to those areas. Because gralienreport.com does not track the usage patterns of individual users, an advertiser will never know that a specific user clicked on a particular ad.

USE OF CREDIT CARD INFORMATION
At present, gralienreport.com does not provide any services that require use of credit cards, with the exception of links we post to third party sites such as CreateSpace.com and Amazon.com for the sale of books, etc (Last Updated: September 4, 2010). We intend to comply with generally accepted industry standards in collecting and processing any credit card information that may result from future endeavors appearing at this site. We also use tracking information to determine which areas of our site users like and do not like based on traffic to those areas. Gralienreport.com does not guarantee the safety of credit card information transferred over the Internet (for more information on safe online use of credit cards, visit this link).
