INFORMATION SIKHZONE.NET GATHERS AND TRACKS

SIKHZONE.NET gathers two types of information about users:

• Information that users provide though optional, by registering with sikhzone.net, voluntary submissions of wallpapers, photos, articles and sikhism links.
• Information sikhzone.net gathers through aggregated tracking information derived mainly by tallying page views throughout our sites. This information allows us to better tailor our content to readers' needs and to help our advertisers and sponsors better understand the demographics of our audience. Because sikhzone.net derives its revenue mainly from sponsorships and advertising, providing such aggregated demographic data is essential to keeping our service free to users. Under no circumstances does sikhzone.net divulge any information about an individual user to a third party.
