Information We Collect
Information We Automatically Collect
We may receive and store certain types of non-personally identifiable information whenever you interact with us, including, without limitation, the sort of information 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. Our purpose in collecting such information is to better understand how our visitors use our Web sites. From time to time, we may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of one or more of our Web sites. JPPI also collects potentially personally-identifying information like the Internet Protocol (IP) addresses of Web site visitors.

We may receive and store any information you enter on our Web sites or provide to us in any other way. For example, in order to use certain services or functions of our Web sites, you may be required to register for an account, often with an email address and/or username plus a password. JPPI collects such information only insofar as is it deems reasonably necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the user's interaction with Johnny Pixel Productions.
You can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent you from engaging in certain activities.

A cookie is information that a Web site stores on a visitor's computer, and that the visitor's browser provides to the Web site each time the visitor returns. We use cookies to help us identify and track visitors, their usage of our Web sites, and their Web site preferences. Visitors who do not wish to have cookies placed on their computers should set their browsers to refuse cookies before using JPPI's Web sites, with the drawback that certain features of JPPI's Web sites may not function properly without the aid of cookies.

In particular, Google uses cookies, and the DoubleClick DART cookie enables Google to show ads based on your visit to this site and other sites on the Internet. You can opt out of the DART cookie by visiting the Google ad and content network privacy policy.
