I don’t censor comments based on point of view. I do reserve the right to delete those comments that I deem in my sole judgment to be irrelevant, spam-like or just plain rude.

Once a comment is made public on Gympressions, I will not remove it by request. As a commenter, you are responsible for your own communications and the consequences of your comments.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, comments will only be considered for removal (i) in response to legal process, for example, in response to a court order, or (ii) in response to a law enforcement agency's request, or where we believe it is necessary to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of another person, violations of our terms of use, or as otherwise required by law.

All comments contributed to Gympressions shall adhere to the following policy, and may be edited or removed at my discretion if they are deemed to be in violation of this policy:

1. Don’t be mean.
2. Don’t spam.

I appreciate your readership and value your privacy. This Privacy Policy may be revised or updated at any time, and I encourage you to check back often to ensure that you are familiar with the most recent version.

You may provide personal information including your full name and email address to Gympressions in various ways including: (1) by sharing your e-mail address and other personal information when you use the Contact Form or (2) by sharing personal information when you post comments. Gympressions may also ask for other information at other times, but at no time will you be required to share any personal information to gain access to the site.

The email address that you use when contacting Gympressions will not be used for any reason other than responding to your inquiry. I do not sell individual personal data or email addresses.

In addition to basic contact information, Gympressions’ analytics trackers may also collect other information. This may include your location, IP address, the operating system you are working on, the Internet browser you are using, and the screen resolution of your computer. Such non-personally identifiable information may be shared in aggregate form with Gympressions’ business partners, but your personally identifiable information will never be disclosed to them.

The only exceptions to the foregoing are that Gympressions may disclose personally identifiable information (i) in response to legal process, for example, in response to a court order or subpoena, (ii) in response to a law enforcement agency's request, or where we believe it is necessary to investigate, prevent, or take actions regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of another person, violations of our terms of use, or as otherwise required by law, or (iii) in the event that Gympressions is acquired by or merged with another entity.

Third parties and web sites that have links on this site may also collect or use information about you. This Privacy Policy does not cover such third party activity.

Keep in mind that any information you disclose in comments becomes public information; Gympressions is a public forum. All information sharing is optional and done at your own risk. I encourage you to be careful and responsible when disclosing personal information online.
