Privacy Policy

The Rainbow Museum operates therainbowmuseum.wordpress.com and may operate other websites. It is The Rainbow Museum policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our websites.

Website visitors

Like most website operators, The Rainbow Museum collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. The Rainbow Museum purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how The Rainbow Museum visitors use its website. From time to time, The Rainbow Museum may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

The Rainbow Museum also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on The Rainbow Museum’s blogs/sites. The Rainbow Museum only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below, except that commenter IP addresses and email addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators of the blog/site where the comment was left.

Gathering of personally-identifying information

Certain visitors to The Rainbow Museum websites choose to interact with The Rainbow Museum in ways that require The Rainbow Museum to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that The Rainbow Museum gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up at therainbowmuseum.wordpress.com to provide a username and email address. Those who engage in transactions with The Rainbow Museum are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions.
In each case, The Rainbow Museum collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with The Rainbow Museum. The Rainbow Museum does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.

Aggregated statistics

The Rainbow Museum may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. The Rainbow Museum may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, The Rainbow Museum does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.

Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organisations may be located outside of your home country; by using The Rainbow Museum websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them.
The Rainbow Museum will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone.
