Live Fire Cooking Association Corp operates livefirecookingassociation.com and may operate other websites. It is LFCA’s policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our websites.
Website Visitors
Like most website operators, LFCA 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. LFCA’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how LFCA’s visitors use its website. From time to time, LFCA may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.
LFCA also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on LFCA blogs/sites. LFCA 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 commenter IP addresses and email addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators of the blog/site where the comment was left.
Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information
Certain visitors to LFCA’s websites choose to interact with LFCA in ways that require LFCA to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that LFCA gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up at LFCA to provide a username and email address. Those who engage in transactions with LFCA are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, LFCA collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with LFCA. LFCA 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.
Aggregated Statistics
LFCA may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. LFCA may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, LFCA does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.
Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information
LFCA 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 LFCA’s behalf or to provide services available at LFCA’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 LFCA’s websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. LFCA 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, LFCA discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when LFCA believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of LFCA, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of a LFCA website and have supplied your email address, LFCA 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 LFCA and our products. If you send us a request (for example via 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. LFCA takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.

Business Transfers
If LFCA, or substantially all of its assets, were acquired, or in the unlikely event that LFCA goes out of business or enters bankruptcy, user information would be one of the assets that is transferred or acquired by a third party. You acknowledge that such transfers may occur, and that any acquirer of LFCA may continue to use your personal information as set forth in this policy.
Embedded content from other websites

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracing your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
Changes
Although most changes are likely to be minor, LFCA may change from time to time, and in LFCA’s sole discretion. LFCA encourages visitors to frequently check this page for any changes. If you have a LFCA account, you might also receive an alert informing you of these changes. Your continued use of this site after any change will constitute your acceptance of such change.
Google Analytics Advertising
Google Analytics will collect visitation information and associate it with Google information from accounts of signed-in users who have consented to this association for the purpose of ads personalization. This Google information may include end user location, search history, YouTube history and data from sites that partner with Google—and is used to provide aggregated and anonymized insights into users’ cross device behaviors.
