- Frequently Asked Privacy Policy Questions
- Does MWL’s website utilize cookies? Yes, for purposes of authentication, tracking, and retaining specific information about users. Short-term (session-specific) cookies are utilized for information that is specific to one session (i.e., from the time that you log onto our website until the time you exit your browser), and multi-visit (or ‘persistent’) cookies are utilized for information that can only be gathered (or effectively utilized) by tracking or storing data for lengthy periods of time. Persistent cookies are useful, for example, for tracking the number of visits a user makes to our website during a week, or for allowing the website to recognize a previously-authenticated user. Cookies are not program code. They are packages of data, and they are unable to read or delete information from your computer.
- Does the fact that MWL is able to retain my information necessarily mean that MWL will retain my information? No. MWL has no responsibility to retain a record of your activity (or content submitted) during a visit to our website. Any user desiring a ‘backup’ for his or her activity (or content submitted) during a session is responsible for creating same.
- Does MWL’s Privacy Policy mean that my information is 100% secure in MWL’s website environment? No, it does not. Everyone should conduct themselves on the internet with the understanding that information transmitted over the internet cannot be guaranteed to be 100% secure. That is true no matter whose website environment you interact with or visit. This will be the case as long as there are transmission errors, and persons willing and able to violate the law. As a result, MWL—like other website hosts—cannot warrant the security of any information you send us over the internet. Once the information arrives to MWL, however, we use considerable efforts to protect it.
- Does MWL’s Privacy Policy apply to cyber destinations that can be linked to from MWL’s website? No, our authority to set policy is limited to sites and properties that we own. If you navigate to a site by linking from our website, you will need to look for the destination site’s Privacy Policy once you arrive there.
