Locus Online has created this privacy statement in order to demonstrate our firm commitment to privacy. The following discloses the information gathering and dissemination practices of Locus Online.

Information Automatically Logged

Each time a visitor comes to the Locus Online website, our host servers, like most on the web, collect some basic technical information, including the visitor's domain name. This data is compiled automatically but is not analyzed or shared with others.

Personal Information

This website does not request any personal information or collect any information, either directly or by using cookies, that personally identifies you or allows you to be personally contacted. Since we do not collect any personal information on this website, we do not share any personal information with any third parties nor do we use any personal information for any purposes.

Information provided when you subscribe to Locus Magazine or order other material from Locus (whether via this website's Subscription/Order Form, by phone, by fax, or by mail), such as credit card information and e-mail addresses, is not compiled by us or shared with others. Our website uses a secure server for pages that request credit card information -- the Subscription/Order form and the CD ROM Index ordering form.

Locus Magazine does share its subscription mailing list with others. You may request, when you subscribe, to be removed from this list.

Amazon.com and Amazon.co.uk provide us with reports of products browsed, and purchased, by visitors linking from Locus Online, but products are not identified by customer, and the information in these reports is not shared with others.
