PRIVACY POLICY

This web site is owned, maintained and operated by Martha L. Hart. Contact information may be found at the end of this policy.

Information Collected Automatically
Neither this web site nor the server where it resides use cookies to obtain user information. The only automatic information made available to me is by way of a visitor counter, which records the domain location from which you access this site. This is used for my own internal review for the purpose of improving the content and performance of this site, and is then discarded. The information is not shared with any individual or organization for either private or commercial purposes.

Information Sent Via E-Mail
The only way you will receive e-mail from me is if you initiate the contact by sending  e-mail to me, signing up to receive e-mail notifications about my work, purchasing a book or photograph from me, or by e-subscribing to ArtLetter. When you engage in one of those actions or complete the information form available on the website, that information is used for my mailing lists alone, and for no other purpose. Most mailing is done electronically, some is done by snail mail. Any data not under my immediate control is stored electronically on the server and is password-protected from unauthorized access by any third party. None of this information is shared with any individual or organization for either private or commercial purposes.

If you do not wish to be on the mailing list(s), please let me know by sending an e-mail stating that you do not want to receive future e-mail from me - just put REMOVE in the subject line.

There are certain types of bots which invade web sites and harvest addresses. Like you, I am also subject to this type of invasive action when I web-surf. Regrettably, I have no control over those actions if they intrude on my website nor what may be done with information they may collect.

C.O.P.P.A.
In compliance with United States laws, as a general policy I do not engage in e-correspondence with persons known to be under the age of 14. I understand why the laws are in place... however, I object to the idea that exposure to art, photography, and/or opera should be restricted - I was certainly hooked on opera and art long before age 14! I would encourage young-adult web explorers to read and enjoy this website. If you wish to enter into a give-and-take dialogue, though, I need a "note" from your parent or guardian by way of a phone call and confirming e-mail.
