each time you visit our discussion board, to set your viewing preferences, and
to provide access to authorized users in restricted forums and administrative
areas. We do not use cookies to track your on-line activities and viewing
habits.
Our discussion board registration form requires users to give us
contact information in the form of a valid e-mail address. The participant's
contact information is used to contact the visitor when necessary. You have the
option of not allowing your e-mail address to be made publicly available at the
time of registration on our discussion board.

password for our discussion board as you do for other services. We do use IP
address logging and hack attempt logging to track potential offenders.
