Privacy Statement.
ianjames.on.ca / ianjames.info is committed to privacy. I don't
gather information from your IP address - or anyone else's IP address
for that matter - when you visit my site. Frankly, I don't give
a rodents rear-end (a rats ass) as to who visits my site, just as
long as you enjoy yourself when you are here. I don't covertly collect
any personal information that can identify you or allows you to
be personally contacted. The information you supply me with when
you send me and e-mail is used ONLY for the purpose expressed in
that e-mail. Since I do not collect any personal information from
inside this site, I DO NOT share any personal information with any
third parties - this includes BBQ parties, birthday parties and
for you good folk in the Boston area, tea parties - nor do I use
any personal information for any purpose other than those expressed
in your e-mail.
(See my Bulk E-mail policy below.)
Reprinting Information.
If you want to use any of the content - text and images - on my
web site, please contact me by:
E-mail: ianjames@sympatico.ca
Letter: Ian Colin James, P.O. Box 48034, Pond Mills, London, Ontario,
Canada, N6M 1K5.
Anti-Spam.
Nobody likes going to a site and receiving a bunch of Spam. Here
is my guarantee to you. I do not track you when you visit my site.
Unless you send me an e-mail, I have no idea you where here. In
other words, you won't be getting any unsolicited e-mail, Spam or
junk mail from visiting my site. You can't beat that with a stick,
can you?
Free Fly Draw Comments.
If you win the Free Fly Draw, or one of the competitions I run on
my site, I will post the comment you sent in beside your name.
Ask Ian Page.
If you send me a question for this section and it is selected to
go onto the Ask Ian page, then funnily enough, I will post it on
the page. Strange how that works.
Bulk E-mail.
I DO NOT SEND OUT BULK E-MAIL. I don't like getting bulk e-mail,
so I don't send it out. I will try and respond to your e-mail on
an individual basis. It may take a 'wee bit' of time to do this
and I might 'miss one' once and a while, but I do make the effort.
I DO NOT SEND OUT Web site update notices, notification of upcoming
events and I do not send out notices for items I have on sale, like
the Grab Bag flies, or for special promotions. I find this sort
of e-mail to be a pain when they show up in my In Box, so I don't
do it. If you want to see what is new on my site ... go there. If
you want to see what I have in the way of specials, promotions or
upcoming events ... go to my site. It's not that I don't care about
you and your business, I DO CARE, but I don't want to bother you
or invade your privacy.
Site Advertising Policy.
I don't have one, because I do not have advertising on my site.
Please don't ask if you can stick a banner on my site. I pay for
the upkeep of the site by selling a few items from the site. Not
many people like those annoying banner ads on Web sites, so as long
as you good folk keep buying stuff, I will keep the site ad-free.
Web Counter.
Since I don't have advertisers to answer to - by justifying the
number of hits I get - I don't have a web counter. Personally I
don't see the need for a hit counter. Hey, if you hit my site and
you like it, I have done a good thing. Having said that, I DO enjoy
'meaningful feedback' like your comments and of course your orders
for flies or to hire me for an after dinner talk.
Cookies.
You can have your cookies turned on or turned off when you visit
my site. It makes no difference, although I would appreciate it
if you could refrain from woofing your cookies when you are here.
Links Page.
Most Web sites - good and bad - have a link page. I DO VISIT every
site wanting to get linked here and I reject "quite a few."
The ground rules for getting linked to my site are quite straight
forward and are outlined on the page. I don't endorse any of the
sites linked on this page. I don't get a kickback or a bunch of
cash - in used unmarked bills, delivered in a brown envelope - from
the folk linked on my site. The links are there as a service to
you fold visiting my site because I think you might like visiting
them. Simple as that.
P.S.: IF for any reason, you feel the need to send me a bag of cash
- Canadian funds, US dollars, Euros, Pounds, Canadian Tire Money
- please use this address:
Mail to: Ian Colin James, P.O. Box 48034, Pond Mills, London, Ontario,
Canada, N6M 1K5.
Clubs & Charities I Support.
I frequently receive e-mails asking me which fly fishing clubs and
charity organizations I support. Just to let you know that I do
this - you know, "We are having an auction, could you donate something
for the cause" - but I don't feel obliged to tell anyone which clubs
I help out. It's the old privacy thing. For your records, here are
a few of my favorites:
P.E.T.A.
Penguins Eating Tainted Anchovies
F.E.T.A.
Fish for the Ethical Treatment of Anglers
(Canadian Chapter)
