Your privacy is important to us. That is why we have taken steps to maintain appropriate confidentiality with regard to all information obtained from you during your visit to this website. Because this information is private, we have taken steps to protect its confidentiality:

Visitors to The Meemic Foundation website are free to explore the site without providing any personal information. In order to evaluate what The Meemic Foundation website visitors want and how to improve usage of the site, The Meemic Foundation logs a website visitor’s IP address (this is often a temporary IP address assigned by an Internet Service Provider [ISP] each time you log into the ISP), the type of operating system you are using and the type of browser software used. The Meemic Foundation may also keep track of the portions of The Meemic Foundation website you visit. This activity is done without The Meemic Foundation’s knowledge of your name, email address or other personally identifiable information.

“Cookies” are short bits of information that a web server can store temporarily within your web browser. Our website uses cookies to carry forward information you entered on one page to the next. The data in the cookies we send can only be used by our website. Our cookies do not read data from your computer’s hard drive or other website cookies.

There are two types of cookies. The first, known as persistent cookies, are saved to a computer’s hard drive until they expire on the date specified by the web server. The second, more commonly known as session cookies, exist only in memory and are destroyed once you close your web browser. We use both persistent and session cookies.

If you are concerned about the use of cookies, you can reject them. To do this, set your browser to not accept cookies. You may still use our website even though you reject cookies. However, rejecting cookies may prevent you from using certain functions or sections of our website.

Online behavioral advertising: The use of cookies, pixel tags, web beacons, clear GIFs, or other similar technologies allows our third-party vendors to deliver advertisements about our products and services when you visit the Site or other web sites or web properties across the Internet.
