MAKEBELIEFSCOMIX.COM PRIVACY POLICY

MakeBeliefsComix.com has a firm commitment to our users' privacy. The following discloses our information gathering and dissemination practices for our Web site.

We use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server and to administer our Web site. This "IP address" does not identify you personally, but rather the Internet numbers assigned by your Internet prover. Our site may use forms for users to request information or services. We collect visitors' contact information when it is specifically provided, but we do not "track" users so as to identify them on an individual basis. We do not send mass emails, that is not the intention of our service-based site, but users may opt-out of receiving future mailings; see the choice/opt-out section below.

NEW SAVE OPTION

MakeBeliefsComix.com recently established a new feature that gives users the option – if they wish – of setting up user accounts to save their comic strips so that they may continue working on them at later times or keeping them as digital portfolios.  This requires the collection of information that includes a username or an optional email address, and a password.

Any additional information in such user accounts will simply be the information used to create the comic - the author’s name, comic title, and the typed data to fill the comic panels’ talk or thought balloons.

The email address request to save comics is optional but recommended so that the users can regain access to their accounts in case they forget or lose their password. Without entering an email address, there is no way to recover a lost password.

We do not share this data with any outside persons, organizations or data sources. Our site may use cookies solely to support the technology with which we've built the site.

To offset some of the costs of providing web content we use third-party advertising companies to serve ads when you visit our Web site. These companies may use information (not including your name, address, email address or telephone number) about your visits to this and other Web sites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services that may be of interest to you. Google, as a third party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads on this site. Google's use of the DART cookie enables it to serve ads to your users based on their visit to your sites and other sites on the Internet. Users may opt out of the use of the DART cookie by visiting the Google ad and content network privacy policy.
