What personal data we collect and why we collect it
This site doesn’t collect your personal information about your browsing habits.
Your email address, etc are used for the contact form, read below…
Contact forms
If you contact us through the contact form you will be asked for your name, email address and your message. Those are only used to communicate back to you with a response or with the newsletter if you asked to receive it. Your contact info is NOT sold, shared, rented or used except to respond to you.
Your ip address may be noted in the email to help stop spam but is not used for any other purpose.
If you sign up for the monthly newsletter and want to stop receiving it your name and address will be taken off the list permanently, all you need do is email and say you want to stop receiving it.
Embedded content from other websites
Content on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.
Those websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
Who we share your data with
Nothing of yours is shared with anyone by us unless you choose to have it shared (such as music, writings, etc that you gave permission to share)
How long we retain your data
Your Email address and name (which are not shared with anyone else) is kept until you say to delete it or there is no need for it any more.
Anything else like writings or songs until you say to delete it.
Who holds rights to music, writings, video, etc and does this site sell or charge for any of it
Whoever is the creator(s) of the work(s) hold the rights and decides what is done with it.
If you share a video link or text of a poem or any other creation to have it here for display then you (or whoever created it or holds the rights) holds the rights.
This site does not claim rights to anything by you or others nor does it charge any fees, sell or rent out your creations.
If you collaborate with me or someone through here then those involved in the creation (song, video, poem, lyrics, whatever) hold the rights equally unless other agreements are made.
If anyone wants to use or share anything on this site they must get permission of those that own it, those that created it and hold the rights.
Some things may state they are open for some or any use by others but unless they state that then:
All Rights Reserved and are copyrighted by the creator or creators.
Contact with any questions unless the specific work/creation/song/art/etc has contact information listed to the creator(s) and you can talk with them about what you would like to do an what they will permit.
Analytics
The web hosting for this site may have analytics built in the hosting account and if so we have attempted to turn them off. No permission for them of use any information of the visitors to this site has been given and we don’t access any of those either.
Plug-ins/add-ons, etc to this site are kept at a minimum and none have been given permission to use any information of the visitors to this site.
Privacy is a very valid concern in these times. For privacy and safety on the internet there are many steps you can (and should) take.
Those can be anywhere from using a browser with “private” tabs or settings, considering using a VPN (virtual Private Network), using more private search engines (such as Duck Duck Go or StartPage) that do not harvest your browsing information which Google and many others do, clearing history, cache, etc, etc.
There’s way more to it than you may think. Your smart phone has the ability to track you, has a microphone and cameras and even smart tvs and of course voice activated devices can monitor you, so read up as much on your own.
One site I’d suggest you use as part of educating yourself is the Electronic Frontier Foundation with has this guide at the following link. It’s a good start but you need to read more than just that.

I hope the above answers any questions you have, if you have any others please Contact Me.
Thanks.
Peace!
