Privacy Statement for
High Country Sporting Goods
High Country Sporting Goods has created this privacy statement in order to demonstrate our firm commitment to your personal privacy. The following discloses our information gathering and dissemination practices for High Country Sporting Goods.
About your Internet Service Provider (ISP) address
We will only use your ISP address to help diagnose problems with our webserver, and to administer the physical operations of our Web site. The information we may collect deals with the type of browser you are using to contact this site, so we can tailor our site to fit the broadest audience as practicable. This information is only used by the webmaster, and no other use of your ISP address will ever be used by High Country Sporting Goods.
About Cookies
Our site does not currently utilize "cookies." Cookies are small text files which are saved on your computer, and can be used to gather many kinds of data, from the version and style of browser you use, to the last time you have visited a website, etc. In the future, if we choose to use cookies, they will never be used to collect any personal information about you, and we will voluntarily limit any data collection to browser-related functions, again, so we can tailor our site to the broadest audience, and provide you with a nice experience while on our site. If our site decides to utilize cookies in the future, this page will be updated notifying you of this change in policy, and a small notice will be placed on the main page for one month, denoting changes in our "no cookies" policy.
Our site does not require any registration form for users who come to this site.
The server on which High Country Sporting Goods resides
High Country Sporting Goods is hosted on the Casper Star-Tribune's (trib.com) webservers.
LINKS
This site may contains links to many other sites. High Country Sporting Goods is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such web sites, although we encourage other sites to protect your personal privacy, by the display of their own privacy statement.
ABOUT YOUR NAME AND EMAIL ADDRESS
At no time will High Country Sporting Goods ever spam anyone with unsolicited email, and we support the voluntary abolition of unsolicited marketing email, and support the recrimination of businesses which resort to such practices in order to sell their products.
We support the Boulder Pledge:
The Boulder Pledge is a simple part of the solution to the spam problem, devised by Roger Ebert (the "Thumbs up!" guy) at the Conference on World Affairs at the University of Colorado. (He announced this pledge in his column in Yahoo! Internet Life's December 1996 issue.)
THE BOULDER PLEDGE
The Boulder Pledge: "Under no circumstances will I ever purchase anything offered to me as the result of an unsolicited email message. Nor will I forward chain letters, petitions, mass mailings, or virus warnings to large numbers of others. This is my contribution to the survival of the online community."
At no point in time, will High Country Sporting Goods ever give, or sell your email address, name, or any other private information about you, to anyone.
Period.
This part of our privacy policy will never change.
Message Boards/Chat Rooms
This site may make other chat rooms, forums, and/or news groups available to its users, although no such chat rooms or forums currently exist for users of this website. Please remember that any information that is disclosed in these areas becomes public information and you should exercise caution when deciding to disclose your personal information, especially your email address.
We recommend that you sign up with a free, web-based email service, using this email address when placing messages onto our message boards.. This minimizes the chances of having your email address harvested by roaming spambots. A spambot, also known as a harvester, is a computer program operated by unscrupulous email marketers, which visits website after website, collecting email addresses which have been posted on the Internet, for unsolicited email marketing purposes (spamming). When your web-based email address starts getting spammed on a regular basis, then it is easy to simply abandon that email account, and create a new one.
Utilizing a web-based email address also minimizes your risk if someone begins harassing you.
If you are the victim of spamming which will be unrelated to High Country Sporting Goods, here are a few links which will provide information to help you learn to find out who the spammers are, and will provide you with ways of complaining to their providers.

Step-By-Step SPAM REPORTING
FREE - Information for Spam Victims
Here are the addresses of a couple of the more established web-based free email services:
http://mail.yahoo.com
http://www.hotmail.com
http://www.myownemail.com
Although all web-based email services are great for placing messages on the web and reducing spam coming into your IPS's POP3 account, we personally recommend Yahoo mail at; http://mail.yahoo.com, as this service can be coupled with Microsoft Outlook Express 5.x or Netscape Messenger, which allows you to send and retrieve your email as though it were your regular POP 3 email account, or you can forward any incoming email to your main email address, plus you can access your email via the web-based interface at Yahoo.
