Information collected:
When you look at this web site, our server may make a record of your
visit and log the following information:
- Your IP address (which may provide your server address / top
level domain name, eg..com, .gov, .au, .uk, .nl etc)
- The date and time of your visit to the site
- The pages you accessed and documents downloaded

- The type of browser you are using
- The operating system you are using
In general this information will only be used for statistical purposes,
unless we believe some particular problem requires more detailed
analysis.
Access to information collected:
We will not make any attempt to identify individual users or their
browsing activities. However, in the unlikely event of an investigation,
a law enforcement agency or other government agency may exercise its
legal authority to inspect our logs.
There are cases where we may ask you for personal information such as
your name and/or e-mail address. We do this when you register for
services that require registration or subscription or automated response
(i.e. mailing lists, and member areas).
Sometimes it is just to be of good service to you to notify you in
the event of a problem. In any case, should you change your mind later
or your information changes (such as your e-mail address) and an option
is not installed for you to do this yourself, you need only to contact
us via a
eMessage Board and we will correct, update or remove the specified
data collected by us.
As registered guest/members of our site we do not monitor your
activities, mail or any other service information. However, please
realize that, as with other web sites, it is possible for us to become
exposed to such information during server maintenance. Be assured that
we genuinely have no interest in this information.
The Christian Reformed Church of St. Marys web site never shares
information about our users with advertisers, sponsors or any other
third parties. For this reason you will rarely find outside advertisers
on our site.
Use of information collected:
We will only record your e-mail address if you send us a
eMessage. Your e-mail address will only be used for the purpose for
which you have provided it and it will not be added to a mailing list or
used for any other purpose without your consent. This site does not
(yet) provide facilities for the secure transmission of information
across the Internet.
Cookies:
Cookies can be either "persistent" or "session" based. Persistent
cookies are stored on your computer, contain an expiration date, and may
be used to track your browsing behavior upon return to the issuing web
site. Session cookies are short-lived, are used only during a browsing
session, and expire when you quit your browser.
This web site only uses session cookies and only during a search
query of the web site. The web site statistics for this web site are
generated from the web logs as outlined above.
Upon closing your browser the session cookie set by this web site is
destroyed and no personal information is maintained which might identify
you should you visit our web site at a later date.
Links to other sites:
Users of the Christian Reformed Church of St. Marys web site should be
aware that there are links to our affiliates as well as to other sites
that take you outside our services. For example, if you "click" on a
link, you may be taken off our site even though it may not look like it
because you are in a "frame". These other sites may send their own
cookies to users, collect data or solicit personal information. So we
suggest you exercise the appropriate care when visiting other sites.
