This Web Site’s Privacy Policy 

This Web site provides a variety of online services via its relationship with Steeple

Productions. TAGnet is the host of this site (the "Web site"). Because the success of

this site is dependent on building and maintaining goodwill with our fellow citizens, we,

Zillah and Steeple (hereinafter collectively referred to as "we" or “us” or "our") are committed

to implementing measures designed to protect the privacy of those using our services.

Moreover, we see it as our responsibility to set examples and help establish the standards
for privacy on the Internet.

Although we respect the privacy of all those who visit the Web site and use our
online services, we do collect information from our Web site's members and
visitors. This Privacy Policy governs your interaction with the Web site, and your
registration for and use of this station's online services. Except as set forth within
this Privacy Policy and this Web Site's Terms of Service and/or other published
guidelines, we do not release personally identifiable information about this Web
site's members and visitors without their permission.

Please note that we review these privacy practices from time to time, and that
these practices are therefore subject to change. We ask that you periodically
review this page to ensure continuing familiarity with the most current version of
this Web site's Privacy Policy. To contact us about privacy issues, to report a
violation of this Web site's Privacy Policy, or to raise any other issue regarding the
Web site, please e-mail us at steeple@nwinfo.net.

The information we gather:

We gather two types of information about this Web site's users:

(1) Non-personally identifiable information: When visitors come to the Web site,
we collect and aggregate information indicating, among other things, which pages
were visited, the order in which they were visited, and which hyperlinks were
"clicked." Collecting such information involves the logging of IP addresses,
operating system and browser software used by each visitor to the Web site.
Although such information is not personally identifiable, we can determine from
the IP address a visitor's Internet Service Provider and the geographic location of
his or her point of connectivity.

The non-personally identifiable information we collect helps us diagnose
problems with our server, administer the Web site, identify the most popular
areas of the Web site, and determine the effectiveness of our promotional
activities. In addition, we may disclose some of this information to linked organizations

to inform them of the number of people who have seen and/or clicked through to their sites.


(2) Personally identifiable information: In certain areas of the Web site, such as
online surveys and requests for information, the Web site may require---that you provide

personally identifiable information (including, for example, zip code, age and e-mail address).
TAGnet, as host of the Web site, has access to this information. In addition,
when registering to set up an account to use certain services of the Web site such
as e-mail, chat rooms, and forums, or to receive certain newsletters or specifically
targeted information ("Services"), we do require that you provide both your name
and your current, valid e-mail address.

We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children
(defined herein as minors younger than 13 years of age) without obtaining
parental consent. Before using the Services of the Web site, we ask

that all minors have their parents read our Privacy Policy. Before and
during the process, we encourage all minors to include a parent or
guardian in the process.

We do not control the acts of this Web site's members or visitors. All members
and visitors should be aware that, when they disclose personally identifiable
information in a bulletin board, chat room, guestbook, or other forum, the
information may be collected and used by others to send that person unsolicited
e-mail from other parties outside Zillah or Steeple. In the event that you
encounter any user on this Web site who is improperly collecting or using
information about you or other users, please contact steeple@nwinfo.net.

How we use (and do not use) the information we gather

Please take some time to familiarize yourself with the different ways we use the
information that we gather. Keep in mind that, while we encourage all third parties
involved to adhere to our policies regarding the privacy of this Web site's visitors and 

members and to otherwise handle personal information in a responsible manner, we 

cannot and do not assume any responsibility for any actions or omissions of third parties,

including the manner in which they use information received either from us or
independently. Nevertheless, in the event you encounter any third party
associated with, or who claims association with us who you feel is improperly
collecting or using information about you, please contact steeple@nwinfo.net; we
will be happy to forward your message to the third party.

(1) How we use (and do not use) non-personally identifiable information: We use
non-personally identifiable information in aggregate form to build higher quality,
more useful online services by performing statistical analyses of the collective
characteristics and behavior of the Web site's members and visitors, and by
measuring demographics and interests regarding specific areas of the Web site.
We provide statistical information based on this data to supporters and other current and 

potential partners. We also use the aggregate data to inform these third parties as to the

number of people who have seen and clicked on links to their web sites.

The Web site may contain links to other Internet web sites, including co-branded
or other affiliated sites that may or may not be owned or operated by us. Unless
otherwise explicitly stated, we are not responsible for the privacy practices or the
content of such web sites, including such sites' use of any information (such as IP
number, browser type, or operating system) collected when visitors to the web site
click through links to those sites. Even though such information might not identify
you personally, we strongly encourage you to become familiar with the privacy
practices of those sites.

(2) How we use (and do not use) personally identifiable information: We provide
notice to potential registrants of this Web site whose personally identifiable
information will be collected during the registration process. Such notice is
provided simultaneously with your registration with this website; moreover, this
Privacy Policy itself serves as notice that such information is collected under those
circumstances. Although you may not "opt out" of the registration process if you
wish to have access to Services, you may choose to "opt out" of receiving
promotional materials from us and/or its affiliates, promoters, or other business
partners. If you do not "opt out" of receiving such promotional materials, we
reserve the right to release any personally identifiable registration information
regarding you to third parties who provide goods or services that we believe may
be of interest to you. We do not request and therefore will not release any credit card

information. If you decide that you would like to discontinue receiving promotional
information from such third parties, please contact those third parties directly.

We limit our own e-mail contact and solicitations to those customers who have not
"opted out" of receiving such communications. The solicitations are limited in that
they, among other things, will clearly indicate the originator of the e-mail and
provide the customer with a method of "opting out" of receiving future
communications of a similar nature.

We reserve the right to release any and all information contained within our
access logs concerning any visitor or member when that visitor or member is in
violation of our Terms of Service or other published guidelines, or partakes (or is
reasonably suspected of partaking) in any illegal activity, even without a
subpoena, warrant, or other court order, and to release such information in
response to discovery requests, or in response to any circumstance which we, in
our sole discretion, deem an emergency. We cooperate with law enforcement
agencies in identifying those who may be using our servers or services for illegal
activities. We also reserve the right to report any suspected illegal activity to law
enforcement for investigation or prosecution.

Security

All information gathered on the Web site is stored within a controlled
database accessible only to us to protect the loss, misuse, or alteration of the
information under our control. However, as effective as any security measure
implemented by us may be, no security system is impenetrable. We cannot
guarantee the security of our database, nor can we guarantee that information
you supply will not be intercepted while being transmitted to us over the Internet.
Questions regarding this Privacy Policy should be directed to us at steeple@nwinfo.net.

Changing/deleting personal information

If you would like to have your personally identifiable information changed or
removed from our database, please contact us at steeple@nwinfo.net, and we
will use reasonable efforts to comply with your request. Keep in mind, however,
that there will be residual information that will remain within our databases,
access logs, and other records, which may or may not contain such personally
identifiable information. The residual information will not be used for commercial
purposes; however we reserve the right, from time to time, to re-contact former
customers or users of this Web site.
