Unregistered Users

We collect certain information necessary to assist us in operating the Site. We log your IP address, ISP (Internet Service Provider), Internet browser and operating system, the time of your visit, and the pages that you viewed. We log this information to assist us in diagnosing server problems, administering our website, and tracking usage statistics. Your IP address is provided to you by your Internet Service Provider and may be constant or may vary each time you access the Internet, depending on the type of Internet service you have. We do not try to identify you through your IP address and it would be extremely difficult for us to do so.

If you click through to the Site from another website, then we collect that information. This helps us learn where our visitors are coming from and helps us make the Site better. Any such information is collected and used only in the aggregate and although we can generate reports to help us understand the information as a whole, we cannot generate reports about specific users. If you have provided personal information to another website from which you click through to the Site, then you should review the privacy policy of that website to determine what information that website collects and how it is used. At present, the Site does not receive any personal information you may have provided to any website not operated by Hungry Plant and we have no plans to do so. If our plans should change, we will modify this Privacy Policy to reflect that change before any change is implemented, and any such personal information would be subject to this Privacy Policy.

We may place small files known as “cookies” on your computer’s hard drive to help us learn about how visitors use our website and to provide our users with a better experience.

Your web browser may provide a way for you to refuse cookies and you are free to do so without affecting your ability to access the Site.

We may provide you with the opportunity to register with the Site. The benefits of registration may include the ability to post messages and other information in our Interactive Areas, and the ability to personalize the website to best serve your needs. If you choose to register, then you will provide certain information to us. That information may or may not be personally identifiable. For example, you may be required to provide a username and password, but as long as your username is not your real name, we will not be able to identify you personally.

In addition, we may offer you the opportunity to opt-in to receiving e-mails containing information you may find useful. If you decide to opt-in, you will provide your name and e-mail address. That information may be collected and stored by a third-party e-mail marketing service that sends out the emails for us, and that information will be subject to the privacy policy of that third-party e-mail marketing service. In addition, should we ever sell this website, the purchaser will also obtain the right to access and use your name and e-mail address. You may opt out of receiving e-mails at any time by clicking the “Unsubscribe” link at the bottom of every email.

Disclosure of Personal Information

Because we do not collect any personally identifiable information, we do not have it. And because we do not have it, we cannot disclose it to any third party.
