Denizen Planet Privacy Statement
Last updated May 1, 2024
We collect as little information as possible about your visit and unless you provide it, nothing about you personally! We have cookies on our site to collect information through Google Analytics, which provides us with aggregate data on where our visitors are from and what pages are the most popular. It also provides us with a graph of visitors to the site by page and date, so that we can see if something we have done (shared a post on Facebook for instance), has resulted in more visits.
Google Analytics also collects your IP address, information on general information on the type of device you are using and what web browser you use.
In addition, we may collect personal information in the regular course of running this website, but only the information you voluntarily provide. This document lets you know exactly how we’re protecting the information you entrust to us.
What personal information do you collect about me?
Your Email Address is collected if you sign up for notifications. Other personal information will be collected if you wish to share your work on this site.
When you visit our website, we also collect (through Google Analytics):
In addition to the information above, Google Analytics also shares general information about your computer, including your IP address, your computer’s general location [country and perhaps city], what pages you visit on our site, and what links, if any, you click. This information only gives us a general idea of what is popular on the site, if you came to this site because you clicked a link (on FaceBook for example), or what Google search terms you used.
How do you use this information?
We collect analytics to improve our site. We collect personal information to allow you to sign up for our newsletter or if you wish to submit something to us for inclusion on the site
Sharing of Personal Information with Third Parties
With the exception of Google Analytics (see above), we do not knowingly share your personal information with anyone. It is possible/probable that some companies or websites you have visited are using cookies to track your web browsing habits, which may include information about a visit to this site, but this is outside of our control. If this is a concern you should remove all cookies from your computer and clean your cache every time you close your browser.
We will disclose your personal information if we are required by law to do so.
How do you get my consent?
If your web browser accepts cookies you are giving us permission to add your visit to the aggregate data provided to us by Google Analytics. No personal information is collected.
If you sign up for our newsletter or send us an email for any reason you are consenting to the collection of the personal information you are providing. We only use this information in-house and never share, rent, sell, or in any way give this information to anyone, ever - unless we are required to do so by law.
How do I opt out?
Opting out is simple. Don’t accept cookies, don’t send us an email, don’t sign up for the newsletter, and don’t submit any of your work. It is as easy as that.
How do I get more information?
We are happy to answer any questions you may have about your personal information. If you would like more information about our policies, or you would like to see exactly what personal information we have about you in our records, or you wish to register a complaint, please contact:
