Privacy Policy:

It is TheABCD.com’s policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our website. Hello – This is Steve Carr writing the rest of this paragraph. I built this WordPress website from scratch and I have never had anything to do with things mentioned below such as “using cookies to track you”  nor working with advertisers and third parties because my source of income is from media production and related educational resources. While I know audio recording and have built numerous websites, I am not an expert on the workings of browsers and internet law, so I left the paragraphs below as written.  

Website Visitors

Like most website operators, TheABCD.com 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. TheABCD.com’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how TheABCD.com’s visitors use its website. From time to time, TheABCD.com may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information

TheABCD.com will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. TheABCD.com will disclose potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when TheABCD.com believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of TheABCD.com, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of an TheABCD.com website and have supplied your email address, TheABCD.com may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with TheABCD.com and our products. If you send us a request (for example via email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. TheABCD.com takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.

Business Transfers
