Stanford Knight
strives to offer its visitors the many advantages of
Internet technology and to provide an interactive and
personalized experience. We may use Personally
Identifiable Information (your name, e-mail address,
street address, telephone number) subject to the
terms of this privacy policy. We will never sell,
barter, or rent your email address to any
unauthorized third party.
How we gather
information from users.
How we collect and
store information depends on the page you are
visiting, the activities in which you elect to
participate and the services provided. For example,
you may be asked to provide information when you
register for access to certain portions of our site
or request certain features, such as newsletters or
when you make a purchase. You may provide information
when you participate in sweepstakes and contests,
message boards and chat rooms, and other interactive
areas of our site. Like most Web sites, Stanford
Knight also collects information automatically and
through the use of electronic tools that may be
transparent to our visitors. For example, we may log
the name of your Internet Service Provider or use
cookie technology to recognize you and hold
information from your visit. Among other things, the
cookie may store your user name and password, sparing
you from having to re-enter that information each
time you visit, or may control the number of times
you encounter a particular advertisement while
visiting our site. As we adopt additional technology,
we may also gather information through other means.
In certain cases, you can choose not to provide us
with information, for example by setting your browser
to refuse to accept cookies, but if you do you may be
unable to access certain portions of the site or may
be asked to re-enter your user name and password, and
we may not be able to customize the site’s features
according to your preferences. How we collect and
