This privacy policy applies to Murr Forestry, PLLC (“Murr Forestry”). Our website address is: http://www.murrforestry.com. Your privacy is very important to us at Murr Forestry and we have a few fundamental principles that we follow:
We don’t ask you for personal information unless we truly need it. (We can’t stand services that ask you for things like your gender or income level for no apparent reason.)
We don’t share your personal information with anyone except to comply with the law, develop our products, or protect our rights.
We don’t store personal information on our servers unless required for the on-going operation of our site.
It is Murr Forestry’s policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our websites
What Personal Data We Collect and Why We Collect It
Website Visitors
Like most website operators, Murr Forestry 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. Murr Forestry’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how our visitors use our website. From time to time, Murr Forestry may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
Blogs and Contact forms
Murr Forestry also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on our blogs. Murr Forestry only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below, except that blog commenter IP addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators of the blog where the comment was left.
Certain visitors to Murr Forestry websites choose to interact with us in ways that require us to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Murr Forestry gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who comment on our blog to provide a username and email address. Those who wish to receive Murr Forestry updates via email, we collect their email address. In each case, Murr Forestry collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with us. Murr Forestry does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.
Your Contact Information
Murr Forestry may collect contact and other personal identification information from users visiting our site. Users may be asked for their name, email address, address, phone number, title, and region. We collect contact information from users only for purposes of providing assistance or services, and if they voluntarily submit such information to us. Users can always refuse to supply personally identification information; however, failure to do so may prevent them from engaging in certain activities.

Sharing of Your Data
Murr Forestry discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on Murr Forestry’s behalf or to provide services available at Murr Forestry’s websites, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using Murr Forestry’s websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. Murr Forestry will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, Murr Forestry discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when Murr Forestry believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Murr Forestry, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of a Murr Forestry website and have supplied your email address, we may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with Murr Forestry and our products. We primarily use our various product blogs to communicate this type of information, so we expect to keep this type of email to a minimum. If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. Murr Forestry takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
Your Rights Over Your Data
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
