Website Visitors

Like most website operators, Echo Mountain collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. Echo Mountain’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how visitors use its website. Echo Mountain also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users. Echo Mountain only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to Echo Mountain’s websites choose to interact with Echo Mountain in ways that require Echo Mountain to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Echo Mountain gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. Those who engage in transactions with Echo Mountain – by making a purchase, for example – are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, Echo Mountain collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with Echo Mountain. Echo Mountain does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.
