EMAIL LISTS
If you voluntarily sign up for any of Emerging Worlds email lists, the only place your name and email address will be kept is on the listserv host. This information is NEVER made available to or sold to anybody else; only the listserv manager has access to it. You may remove yourself from the mailing lists at any time.
EMERGING WORLDS CONTRIBUTIONS
If you voluntarily submit accounts or comments to the Emerging Worlds web site, your information is processed with a secure server (the kind used to protect credit cards). We have made a great deal of effort to plan for absolute confidentiality for our contributors! Please see further on this page for more information on this.
WEB SERVER AND 'COOKIES'
This server, like all web servers, knows the computer (IP) routing assigned to visitors. This is necessary for Internet protocol to work¡Xto know where to send the requested information. However, we do NOT know your name, email, or anything else about you, and we do NOT employ any form of software inquiry for such a purpose. We do NOT use permanent or temporary cookies of any kind and we do NOT place anything on your computer.
We respect your privacy and we honor the security of your personal information. We NEVER supply, make public, or sell information from this web site or its affiliated web media. If you have any questions about our security policy or details, please email us at em@ emergingworlds.com
Correspondence with you that is necessary before posting an account or commentary will have innocuous email headers, e.g. "Your recent communication."
Once an account or commentary is posted to the Emerging Worlds website, real name and email information will, for those who have requested anonymity, be further protected, such as by being locked in a safe and/or encrypted.
Please note that some things are beyond our control, however. If someone other than you reads opens your email for you, e.g., anonymity from that person is not possible, so we assume submitters desiring anonymity will email us from a personal account and or instruct us as to the best way to retain anonymity with them. Similar if your email is through a company that has the right to read file copies of your email we cannot prevent that.
