Information We Collect, And How We Collect It
You may use our website without disclosing to us any personally identifiable information (“PII”). We collect PII about you only if you sign up for our mailing list, and then only your email address, first and last name. We do not use browser cookies to track user behavior on our website. Although our web server does log certain technical information automatically, such as the identity of your Internet Service Provider and your device’s IP address, none of this technical information reveals your identity to us, and it is not associated with any PII you may choose to provide. We use Google Analytics to analyze our website analytics and performance. Google Analytics generates statistical and other information about website usage by means of cookies, which are stored on users’ devices.

The data is collected anonymously, stored by Google and used by us to create reports about website usage. Google’s privacy policy is available at http://www.google.com/privacypolicy.html. If you choose to subscribe to our email list, you will receive a confirming op-in email before we add you to the mailing list. Should you subsequently unsubscribe (“opt-out”) we continue to retain that information to ensure you do not continue to receive communications from us. Dave Berkus may continue to exchange emails with you regardless of your opting-out of bulk communications. Our mailing list is comprised of contacts collected by the methods above as well as the individual personal and/or professional contacts.
When you send us email or letters we may retain those messages. When you telephone us, we may retain notes on the conversation. Any email messages and related attachments, if any, that you send to us are not governed by this policy.
