| + | <pre>PRIVACY POLICY | ||
| + | |||
| + | HomestarRunner.com is committed to providing a fun, safe and secure website for people of | ||
| + | all ages. We are dedicated to safeguarding all personal information collected online. | ||
| + | |||
| + | To help ensure a rewarding online experience for all visitors, we provide this summary of | ||
| + | our information practices. This privacy notice governs the collection and use of information | ||
| + | at HomestarRunner.com. | ||
| + | |||
| + | As we continue to offer our visitors new and different types of content and services, we | ||
| + | may modify our practices from time to time. However, we will treat all personal information | ||
| + | we collect in accordance with the privacy notice in effect at the time the information is | ||
| + | collected. | ||
| + | |||
| + | I. The Information We Collect | ||
| + | |||
| + | At HomestarRunner.com, we do not collect personally identifiable information unless our | ||
| + | visitors voluntarily provide it to us. For some activities, such as online polls or surveys, | ||
| + | we may ask visitors to provide information that is not personally identifiable. This might | ||
| + | include first name only, city or state of residence, age, gender, or a favorite cartoon or | ||
| + | character. For some other activities, such as subscribing to our updates letter, we may ask | ||
| + | visitors to provide an e-mail address. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Visitors who order merchandise or other materials from the store at HomestarRunner.com will | ||
| + | be required to provide their full name, billing and mailing addresses, e-mail address, | ||
| + | telephone number and possibly a credit card number. If the order is being shipped to a third | ||
| + | party, we will also need the recipient's name and mailing address. Before collecting | ||
| + | information in connection with a store order, we will verify the validity of the purchaser's | ||
| + | credit card. On occasion, we might solicit additional voluntary information regarding | ||
| + | shoppers' personal shopping preferences. | ||
| + | |||
| + | We do not knowingly collect names and e-mail | ||
| + | addresses from children under thirteen without notifying the parent via e-mail and giving | ||
| + | the parent the option to remove their child's e-mail address from the applicable database | ||
| + | for that activity. We do not knowingly collect the mailing address of a child under | ||
| + | thirteen without obtaining verifiable consent from that child's parent. It is up to the | ||
| + | child under thirteen to notify HomestarRunner.com of his or her age before submitting any | ||
| + | information to the website. | ||
| + | |||
| + | When visitors come to our site, we automatically collect some non-personally identifiable | ||
| + | information such as the type of computer operating system (e.g., Windows '95 or Mac OS) | ||
| + | and browser (e.g., Netscape, Internet Explorer) being used, and the domain name of the | ||
| + | Internet service provider (e.g., America Online, Earthlink). | ||
| + | |||
| + | II. How We Use the Information | ||
| + | |||
| + | We use visitors' personal information for internal purposes only, such as subscribing to our | ||
| + | online updates letter, or to order from the store at HomestarRunner.com. We use parents' | ||
| + | e-mail addresses to notify them when we have received personal information such as e-mail | ||
| + | addresses from their children and to give parents the option to remove their child's name | ||
| + | from our lists. | ||
| + | |||
| + | We only use the e-mail addresses of subscribers to our HomestarRunner.com updates letter to | ||
| + | send them the requested letter(s). Each letter also includes instructions for subscription | ||
| + | removal via return e-mail. | ||
| + | |||
| + | We never sell, rent, or otherwise share our visitors' personal information with third | ||
| + | parties. Sometimes, we may use agents or contractors to provide services to our visitors, | ||
| + | such as helping us ship customer orders made in the store at HomestarRunner.com. In these | ||
| + | cases, we require the agent or contractor to keep the information confidential and to use | ||
| + | it only for the specific services they are performing. We sometimes use non-personally | ||
| + | identifiable information that we collect to improve the design and content of our site, | ||
| + | and to improve our visitors' experience on HomestarRunner.com. We also may aggregate this | ||
| + | information to analyze site usage, as well as to offer products, programs, or services. | ||
| + | |||
| + | We will disclose information we maintain as required by law, for example, in response to | ||
| + | a court order or a subpoena. We also may disclose such information in response to a | ||
| + | specific law enforcement agency's request. | ||
| + | |||
| + | We will not use or transfer personally identifiable information in ways that are materially | ||
| + | different from the ones described above without also providing parental notification of | ||
| + | such practices and obtaining consent for any materially different uses. | ||
| + | |||

| + | files tht we place in visitors' computer browsers to store their preferences. Cookies | ||

| + | visitor has provided, such as an e-mail address, we do not use cookies for this purpose. | ||
| + | We do use cookies to determine how many visitors we have and how often they visit various | ||
| + | sections of our site. | ||
| + | |||
| + | IV. Security | ||

| + | safeguard and help prevent unauthorized access, maintain data security, and correctly use | ||

Easter Eggs
- Let the page stay open for about fifteen seconds and Homestar Runner walks into frame, examines the page, gives his opinion on all those little words: "Bo-ring!", and then leaves.
Fun Facts
Trivia
- Legal.txt (the txt version) is the only page on the site that is a text file.
Remarks
- If you resize your browser window on the Flash file to view the left side outside of the frame, you'll see a small counter on the top left. It will count from 0 to 25 in small black type up until Homestar appears. After Homestar leaves, it goes back to 0 and stays there.
- The 25 denotes 25 loops of the first half of the animation. Instead of making the legal "toon" unnecessarily long by having nearly a minute of nothing, they simply looped the first few seconds of the toon 25 times. Once it reaches 25, the toon is allowed to continue to Homestar's entrance, and then ends.
Goofs
- "That" is spelled incorrectly (as "tht") under the "cookies" section.
- In the Flash file (as opposed to the text file), you cannot view the entire terms of use using the scroll bar or the scroll buttons; the page stops a couple of lines before Jurisdictional Issues. You can, however, highlight the text and drag downward or use the scroll wheel on your mouse to view the bottom of the page.
Fast Forward
- Homestar says the same "Bo-ring!" in the FBI warning on disk one of the strongbad_email.exe DVD
