Web Server Logs
We may receive and store certain types of usage-related information when you interact with the Website to administer the site and analyze its usage. Examples of information we may track include:
Google Analytics
The Website uses Google Analytics to track statistics regarding our audience and Website traffic. No personally identifiable information is transferred from the Website to Google Analytics. We use this information to better understand our users and do not at this time use any targeted advertising. Statistics such as IP Address, pages visited, demographics, location and other basic user information is reported for us to better make informed decisions about how to make our site more relevant and easy to navigate for our users. Google offers an opt out installation that works with your browser if you do not want your data reported through Google Analytics: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout/ and we encourage anyone using our site to opt out if they are so inclined.
For more information on Google Analytics’ privacy and cookie policies, please visit this site. For more information on the privacy practices of Google, please visit the Google Privacy & Terms web page.
Use of Cookies
Currently, the Website does not use cookies to personalize or enhance your user experience. A cookie is a small text file that is placed on your hard disk by a Web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you and can only be read by a Web Server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.
Cookies may be used by third-party services, such as Google Analytics, as described above. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies.
One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. For example, if you personalize a web page, or navigate within a site, a cookie helps the site to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of delivering relevant content and eases site navigation by providing and saving your preferences and login information as well as providing personalized functionality.
What Personal Data We Collect and Why
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/ After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
Contact Forms
Any information that you enter into a contact form that is submitted is saved into our website database and is emailed to us in order to communicate with you and respond to your inquiry.
Cookies
If you leave a comment on our site, you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment.
Embedded Content form other websites
Web pages and blog posts on this site may include embedded content (i.e., videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking and monitor your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
Social Sharing
On our website, we use a social sharing plugin.
This plugin sends a request to third party APIs via website-visitor’s web browser to fetch information (like social shares, social comment count). This request made by web browser may include IP address, which can then be seen by the third-party that it’s being requested from. This API request doesn’t include any personal data of the website user other than the IP address. This may included the following:
A Facebook widget to allow you to see number of likes/shares/recommends and “like/share/recommend” our webpages. This widget may collect your IP address, your web browser User Agent, store and retrieve cookies on your browser, embed additional tracking, and monitor your interaction with the widget, including correlating your Facebook account with whatever action you take within the widget (such as “liking/sharing/recommending” our webpage), if you are logged in to Facebook. For more information about how this data may be used, please see Facebook’s data privacy policy: https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/update
A Twitter widget. As a result, our website makes requests to Twitter’s servers for you to be able to tweet our webpages using your Twitter account. These requests make your IP address visible to Twitter, who may use it in accordance with their data privacy policy: https://twitter.com/en/privacy#update
A GooglePlus widget. As a result, our website makes requests to Google’s servers for you to be able to share our webpages using your GooglePlus account. These requests make your IP address visible to Google, who may use it in accordance with their data privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy
A Linkedin Share widget to allow you to share our webpages on Linkedin. These requests may track your IP address in accordance with their data privacy policy: https://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy
Third-Party Use of Personal Information
The Website may provide personal information to an applicable third party in order to provide services. Currently, LisaKCooper.com uses the services of MailChimp for delivery of email updates and newsletters. MailChimp is considered a Data Process and is subject to MailChimp’s privacy policy.
Purchases through our website are handled through PayPal. When you make a purchase, you will be asked to log in to your own PayPal account to complete the transaction. Before making a purchase, you should be familiar with PayPal’s security and privacy policy. LisaKCooper.com does not capture any of your information during this transaction; however, the transaction will be captured in our PayPal account.
We currently do not do business outside the United States; however, if you are located outside the United States and choose to provide information to us, please note that we transfer this data, including Personal Data, to the United States and process it there. Your consent to this Privacy Policy followed by your submission of such information represents your agreement to that transfer.
Your personal information is not shared with any other third-party applications.
Security of Your Information
The security of your data is important to us, but it is important to understand that no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure.

You can decline to submit personal information at any time. You may request deletion of your personal information, but in some cases, we may be required to keep your information by law. In such a case, it would no longer be active and would be kept separately in an archive.
