Sacred Fire Magazine web sites will disclose your personal information, without notice, only if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to: (a) conform to the edicts of the law or comply with legal process served on Sacred Fire Magazine or the site; (b) protect and defend the rights or property of Sacred Fire Magazine; and, (c) act under exigent circumstances to protect the personal safety of users of Sacred Fire Magazine, or the public.

Use of Cookies

The Sacred Fire Magazine web site use "cookies" to help you personalize your online experience. A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by the web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.

One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalize Sacred Fire Magazine pages, or register with Sacred Fire Magazine site or services, a cookie helps Sacred Fire Magazine to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so on. When you return to the same Sacred Fire Magazine Web site, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the Sacred Fire Magazine features that you customized.

You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the Sacred Fire Magazine services or web sites you visit.

Security of your Personal Information

Sacred Fire Magazine secures your personal information from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. Sacred Fire Magazine secures the personally identifiable information you provide on computer servers in a controlled, secure environment, protected from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. When personal information (such as a credit card number) is transmitted to other web sites, it is protected through the use of encryption with the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol.

Changes to this Statement

Sacred Fire Magazine will occasionally update this Statement of Privacy to reflect company and customer feedback. Sacred Fire Magazine encourages you to periodically review this Statement to be informed of how Sacred Fire Magazine is protecting your information.
