Website Visitors
Like most website operators, FLH 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. FLHs’ purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how FLHs’ visitors use its website. From time to time, FLH may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website for internal use.
FLH also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users.FLH only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below.

Certain visitors to FLHs’ website choose to interact with FLH in ways that require FLH to gather personally-identifying information such as donations or membership. The amount and type of information that FLH gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. Those who engage in transactions with FLH are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, FLH collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with FLH.
