CONSENT

By using our website, you hereby consent to our Policy and agree to its terms.

This document contains types of information that is collected and recorded by CrabIsland.com and how we use it.

The simple act of visiting a website leaves a trail of information, a “digital footprint”, about visitors like you. Sometimes this footprint is vague and preserves your anonymity, while other times it is tied specifically to you and your real life identity.

If all you do is click around and read pages, the data captured about you is vague. If you leave a comment or sign up for a newsletter, the data captured about you is, sometimes, very specific. Almost all web sites on the web today collect data in this fashion about visitors, and this site is no different.

It is our belief that you deserve to know how we handle your data and information. Consequently, this Policy is a disclosure concerning our intent with your data. It is not a legally binding contract. It is a statement of intent made in good faith.

If you are unsure what something means, please ask. Contact information is available at the bottom of this page. If you have additional questions or require more information about our Policy, do not hesitate to contact us.
