Some information that does not identify you personally is collected. This may include your IP address, the browser you use, your screen resolution, the URL that you were at just before entering our site, which pages you visited, the time and date you visited, your operating system and the completion status of whatever pages or objects that were requested. This type of information is normally exchanged whenever you visit any website. We use this information to maintain our website and to provide the best experience to our visitors. We may keep this information indefinitely and periodically analyze it in order to improve the website.
Cookies are small files placed on your computer. We use cookies for various purposes, such as keeping track of whether you are logged-in or not and for certain permissions, such as participating in forum discussions. Sessions are the periods of time in which you are logged-in to the site. Cookies placed by PortPhilly.com can be read by PortPhilly.com, but no other websites. Most, if not all, modern browsers will allow you to determine whether to accept, reject or approve cookies. Cookies are not required to view the website, but may be required to participate in some activities, such as forums, for example.
Some of our pages provide forms allowing visitors to submit search engine queries, questionnaires, feedback, or other information. Some of these forms may request personally identifiable information (e.g., name, address, e-mail address) for specific purposes, such as when the submitter is requesting a personal response, registering as a PortPhilly.com user, or requesting a directory listing. All information submitted by visitors is voluntary.
Generally, we will not share any personally identifiable information you give us with any government agency, private organization, or the public, except with your consent or as required by law. By pressing the "submit" button, each visitor constitutes consent to use the information for purposes stated in this policy.
By sending us an electronic mail message (email), you may be sending us personally-identifying information. In these cases, we may retain the information as long as necessary to respond to your request or otherwise resolve the subject matter of your email.

From time to time, PortPhilly may send email to it's visitors. By using our forms, or registering with our site and forums, or otherwise voluntarily providing an email address, you agree that PortPhilly.com may send an occasional email.
The forum software allows users to send email to other users without knowing the other users email address. If you use this feature to send email to another forum user, your own email address will be shown to that user. If you recieve such an email, it is up to you whether to respond to such email, but if you do, your email address will then be disclosed to the sender. The forum software allows users to set their preferences regarding displaying email addresses or accepting email. We highly recommend that you do not opt to display your email address.
PortPhilly.com cannot be responsible for any personal information you may disclose in forum posts or other situations. Care should be taken when choosing whether to disclose personal information or not.
The PortPhilly directory may include contact information for organizations and businesses including addresses, phone numbers and email addresses. We publish this information if requested to or if the same information is publicly available. We honor all requests to add, modify or delete entries in our directory as long as those requests are from authorized parties.
If an email address is displayed in our directory, special coding is used to prevent harvesting by email address collecting robot programs, but human visitors will see it normally.
The PortPhilly website contains many links to other websites. Whenever you leave this website and visit another website, you are then subject to the other websites privacy policy.
