Information Gathered By Voluntary Submission
To make use of certain features on our site (such as Submit an Ad, or Save Ad to My Saved Ads, etc.) visitors need to register and to provide certain information as part of the registration or participation process. From time to time, we may ask, for example, for information such as your address, zip code, interest in sports, personal finance, the performing arts, and the like.  Although providing this information is entirely voluntary, the information you supply will help us to offer you more personalized features, to tailor our site to your interests and make it more useful to you. The more you tell us about yourself, the more value we can offer you.

Information Automatically Gathered About All Visitors
We collect aggregate and user-specific information on what pages consumers' access or visit. This information is used to generate reports that help us assess the value of and interest in the site. We use the information we collect to improve the content of our web page. We can build a better site if we know which pages our users are visiting and how often.

Our web servers automatically collect limited information about your computer's connection to the Internet, including your IP address but not the e-mail address, when you visit our site. Your IP address does not identify you personally. We use this information to deliver our web pages to you upon request, to tailor our site to the interests of our users, and to measure traffic within our site.
To help make our site more responsive to the needs of our visitors, we may utilize a standard feature of browser software, called a "cookie". The cookie doesn't actually identify the visitor, just the computer that a visitor uses to access our site. A cookie can't read data off your hard drive. Our advertisers or content partners may also assign their own cookies to your browser, a process that we cannot control. We use cookies to help us tailor our site to your needs, to deliver a better, more personalized service.

Information Shared With Other Organizations
We never sell, loan or give the subscriber information we gather from our newsletter signup list to anyone. We do not "spam" from our list or registered users. We occasionally will forward information about changes to the SelfStorageGuide.com website, or inform you of a self storage related product or service, but it will always come directly from us or our email fulfillment center, never from an advertiser etc. If you ever want to unsubscribe there will be links at the bottom of emails from us to do so.

Special Attention To Children
Children should always get permission from their parents before sending any information about themselves (such as their names, email addresses, and phone numbers) over the Internet, to us or to anyone else. We do not specifically collect information about children. We encourage parents to review and share safety tips with their children participating in the online experience.

A final note: Our site is affiliated with other online companies, some of which feature our branding. This policy statement does not apply to those companies' web sites; please refer to these affiliated sites to obtain information on their privacy policies. If you can not find the privacy policy of any of these sites via a link from the site's homepage, you should contact the site directly for more information.

The Web is an evolving medium. If we need to change our privacy policy at some point in the future, we'll post the changes before they take effect. Of course, our use of information gathered while the current policy is in effect will always be consistent with the current policy, even if we change that policy later.
