Mooseworld respects your privacy and wants you to know how we protect it.

There are three aspects to privacy when using the Mooseworld site or features. First, there is the privacy guarantee of Mooseworld itself. Second, there are the privacy policies of our partners such as Amazon.com and CafePress.com. And, third, there are the privacy policies of any ad servers that may place ads on our site or on our partners' sites.

By completely revealing these policies we give you the information you need to understand how we protect your privacy.

Cookies

Cookies are small information files that Web sites transfer to your computer's hard drive for record-keeping or marketing purposes. Record-keeping can involve saving user passwords or preferences so that they do not have to be reentered each time a site is visited. Another type of record-keeping would be to keep track of "clickstream" data to see what parts of a site are most popular or to observe navigation patterns. Cookies are also sometimes used for marketing purposes. Sites may collect information on products you buy or simply look at. This information is usually treated anonymously, say by statistically aggregating it to give an indication of groups who are using a Web site. But information stored in cookies could be used to identify you personally if the server of the cookie is sharing data with another site where you have given out personal information. Mooseworld itself does not use cookies for any of these purposes. Mooseworld does not share information, in aggregate or individual, with any other site.

If sites use cookies, you can still set your browser to notify you when you have received a cookie (which you can then reject) or to refuse all cookies. If you accept cookies from third party ad servers, for example, you should be aware that clickstream data may be combined with personally-identifiable information that you have given out (name, address, age, gender, income, etc.) on that site or on other sites through registration forms, contest entries and so forth. In this way your surfing and/or buying habits may not be anonymous. That is why Mooseworld makes clear what our relationships are with third parties.

Mooseworld uses one cookie on the Mooseworld for Kids page to keep track of results during the "How much do you know about moose?" quiz. This is a so-called session cookie and is not stored on your hard drive.

Mooseworld Online Store

The Mooseworld Online Store is powered by CafePress.com. This company offers e-commerce service for some of the most famous Web sites, including Dilbert.com and Mooseworld!

CafePress.com uses cookies to make its shopping cart function properly. You can read more about CafePress's own privacy policy here.

Mooseworld Amazon.com Stores

Mooseworld maintains two stores through Amazon.com: The Mooseworld Book Shop and the Moose at Amazon.com store. You can shop at Amazon.com with or without cookies. If you accept Amazon,com's cookies, they allow you to use one-click buying. Amazon.com's privacy policy is given here.

Ad Servers

Ads on Mooseworld—or on any news, bookstore pages or other pages—may be "served" by a third party advertising network. You can reject all of these cookies by setting your browser to reject all cookies or to prompt you for cookies and then reject them as they appear. Users with 6th or 7th generation browsers can use more sophisticated methods for handling cookies from particular sites, including Mooseworld. If you accept third party cookies your privacy may be compromised.

Bottom Line

The bottom line is that Mooseworld takes pains to protect your privacy in whatever way we can. It would simply be inconsistent with the Mooseworld philosophy to do otherwise. Through full disclosure and opt-out procedures, we let you decide what you want other people to know and what you would like to do.

We want you to enjoy your association with Mooseworld and never have to worry about your privacy.
