Your privacy is important to us.  We understand that you are aware of and care about your own personal privacy interests, and we take that seriously. This Privacy Notice sets forth your privacy rights and applies to personal information we may collect: through our websites, mobile applications or online services that link to this Privacy Notice (our “Services”); how we will use, disclose and protect this information; and how you can opt out of some of our uses and disclosures of your information. This Privacy Notice does not apply to information collected by our authorized, third-party service providers or that we collect in other ways, such as over the phone, by mail or in person, except where stated otherwise or as required by law.

Your decision to use any of our Services and provide your personal information is voluntary. We indicate on our online, mobile, and other registration forms what types of personal information are requested. You may choose not to submit requested information online, but that may limit the services we are able to provide to you. The Services are a network of general audience sites, and are not targeted to, and do not knowingly collect personal information from, minors under 16 years of age. We request that these individuals do not provide personal information through the Services. Please see ‘COPPA Compliance‘ below for more information. We recognize that information privacy is an ongoing responsibility, and so we will from time to time update this Privacy Notice as we undertake new personal information collection practices or adopt new privacy policies. If you have concerns, please contact our support team at support@Kronologix.org.


In accordance with the Federal Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 (COPPA), we will never knowingly solicit, nor will we accept, personal information from users known to be under thirteen (13) years of age without the consent of their educational institution or the child’s parent or guardian. We do, however, use COPPA-compliant, third-party services that automatically collect or share certain information and usage data with us to support our internal operations as described in this Privacy Notice.

If you believe that we have collected personal information from someone under the age of 13, please contact us at: support@Kronologix.org.


Kronologix protects the identity of visitors to the Services by limiting the collection of personal information. Except with your consent, personal information provided by you to us will not be posted or published by us, and will be shared with our authorized, third-party vendors or service providers.  You can enjoy many of our Services and their special features without giving us your personal information. See also How We Use Information that You Provide to Us.

Use of Our Premium Subscription Services
When you subscribe to one of our premium Services, we collect information about you (in accordance with applicable privacy laws) that may include (but not be limited to) your email address, first and name, title, IP address, device ID and shared favorites.  We may also collect a personal mailing address and phone number. You may edit your information at any time to change, add or remove certain personal information by sending an email to Kronologix Customer Support. We process your personal information to administer and manage your subscription, deliver the subscriber benefits described below, inform you of prizes and other benefits or opportunities associated with your subscription and respond to your information requests. We may also use this information for legitimate business purposes that help us analyze the demographic of our subscribers and understand our users’ needs and interests to better tailor our products and services to meet user needs and deliver additional services to our users.

Promotions and other special features
For certain promotions and to access certain features available throughout our Services, including our free, ad-supported Services, we collect information voluntarily submitted by you to us to deliver the requested feature that may include (but not be limited to) your email address, first and last name, title, IP address and device ID. We may also collect a personal mailing address and phone number.  You may edit this information at any time to change, add or remove it from our Services by visiting your Kronologix Account Settings page or sending an email to Kronologix Customer Support.  We process your personal information to deliver the requested feature to you, inform you of other benefits or opportunities associated with our Services, including the benefits described below. We may also use this information for legitimate business purposes that help us understand our users’ needs and interests to better tailor our products and services to meet your needs.

Prospect and Referral Information
If a User visits a Service and submits an email address to Kronologix but fails to complete the registration or purchase process, we may use such “prospect” information to contact the prospective User from time to time with offers from Kronologix and information about new features, new services, and special discounts we think the User may see as valuable. Similarly, if a User forwards a Kronologix email to a friend, we may use the “referral” information provided to contact the friend from time to time with offers from Kronologix and information about new features, new services, and special discounts we think the friend may see as valuable. We do not sell or rent any contact information for such “prospects” or “referrals.”

Payment card information
You may choose to purchase goods or subscription services from Kronologix using a payment card. Typically, payment card information is provided directly by you via the Services, into the Patreon-compliant payment processing service to which Kronologix subscribes, and Kronologix does not, itself, process or store your card information.


Subscriber Communications
As a benefit of membership, Kronologix subscribers may receive the following communications from us:

• Communications related to subscription maintenance activities. These communications may include, without limitation, notices regarding material changes to Kronologix Service policies, service updates, service enhancements, and account management procedures. Since these communications are necessary to ensure Kronologix provides its subscribers with the highest quality of services, our subscribers are not permitted to opt out from receipt of these communications.
• Communications containing information about Kronologix. We may send promotional emails and other outbound communications to Kronologix subscribers regarding products and services from Kronologix. Any Kronologix subscriber that does not wish to receive such product and service communications can choose to remove their contact information from our contact list at any time by (i) following the instructions at the bottom of any promotional email; (ii) sending an email to Kronologix Customer Support.

Non-subscriber communications from us and our approved, third-party partners. If you choose to provide us with personal information on any of our free, ad-supported Services, you may receive the following types of emails from us:

• Emails related to subscription-maintenance activities;
• Emails highlighting new features, content, and usage tips for the Services; and
• Special offers
  • From us for additional Kronologix products and services, and
  • From our approved, third-party partners, if you “opt-in” or give us your permission to send them.

When you provide us with your personal information, you can let us know that you do not wish to receive special offers from Kronologix or Kronologix’s third-party partners. Also, each special offer will have information available to allow you to “opt-out” if you no longer wish to receive special offers.

Authorized service providers For legitimate business interests, we may share your personal information with service providers that perform certain services on our behalf, such as processing credit card payments, performing business and sales analysis, and supporting our Services’ functionality, including Patreon.

Business partners When you make purchases or engage in our promotions, we may share personal information with the businesses with which we partner to offer you those products, services, promotions, contests and/or sweepstakes. When you elect to engage in a particular merchant’s offer or program, you expressly authorize us to provide your email address and other information to that merchant.

Surveys We may occasionally conduct on-line surveys. All surveys are voluntary and you may decline to participate.

Direct mail partners From time to time we may share our postal mailing list with selected providers of goods and services that may be of interest to you. If you prefer not to receive mailings from these providers, you can notify us at any time by sending an email to support@Kronologix.org.

Law enforcement We also may disclose your information: In response to a subpoena or as otherwise required by law. When we believe disclosure is appropriate in connection with efforts to investigate, prevent, or take other action regarding illegal activity, suspected fraud or other wrongdoing; to protect and defend the rights, property or safety of Kronologix, our Users, our employees, or others; to comply with applicable law or cooperate with law enforcement; or to enforce our Terms of Use or other agreements or policies.


As explained above, Kronologix processes your data to provide you with the products and services you have requested or purchased from us, including subscriptions, special features, newsletters and other content. Sometimes we use third-party providers to facilitate the delivery of the services described above, and these third-party providers may be supplied with or have access to your personal information for the sole purpose of providing services to you on our behalf, such as our newsletters.

We also use your data for legitimate business purposes that enable us to refine our products and services to better tailor them to your needs and communicate with you about other products and services offered by Kronologix.  In addition, we may disclose your personal information in special legal circumstances. For instance, such information may be used where it is necessary to protect our copyright or intellectual property rights, or if the law requires us to do so.

You can update your personal information and change your marketing preferences at any time by visiting your Kronologix Account Settings page or sending an email to Kronologix Customer Support.


This Privacy Notice only governs information collected by Kronologix through your use of the Services.  Our Services contain links to websites or content (including advertisements) operated and maintained by third parties over which we have no control.  We encourage you to review the privacy policies of all third-party websites before disclosing any personal information to the website. Do not supply personal information to third-party websites unless you have verified their security and privacy policies.


Kronologix does not use cookies (small files transferred from a website to its visitors’ hard drives or browsers for record-keeping purposes), however our authorized, third-party service providers may use cookies , including Strictly Necessary, Performance, Functional and Personalization cookies, and other similar information-gathering technologies throughout our Services to collect certain information automatically and store it in log files for a variety of legitimate business interests and purposes. This information may include (but is not limited to) internet protocol (IP) addresses, mobile device identifiers, the region or general location from where your computer or device is accessing the internet, browser type, operating system and other usage information about your use of our Services, including a history of the pages you view.

Web beacons, tags, and scripts also may be used on our Services or in email or other electronic communications we send to you. These assist us in counting visits to our Services, understanding usage and campaign effectiveness and determining whether an email has been opened and acted upon. We may receive reports based on the use of these technologies by our third-party service providers on an individual and aggregated basis.

Kronologix may use beacons, and other similar technologies on our Services either with your consent or for our legitimate business purposes to ensure you can navigate or otherwise use our Services and access secure areas of our Services.  We also use these technologies for statistical purposes and to analyze and improve the use of our Services and prepare aggregated usage reports. Our authorized, third-party service providers may use cookies, beacons, and other similar technologies.

We may also use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our servers and to administer our Services, analyze trends, track visitor movements, and gather broad demographic information that assists us in identifying visitor preferences.

We have a legitimate interest in understanding how our users, subscribers, customers, and potential customers use our Services. Among other things, this assists us in providing more relevant products and services.  Please refer to our ‘Your Rights & Choices; Opt-Out‘ below for more information.

• Analytics & usage data
  For our legitimate business interests, we may process your personal information for analytic purposes on all of our Services as described in this section.  We partner with Google Analytics, who may use cookies and software logs to monitor the use of the Services and to gather non-personal information about visitors to the site. These monitoring systems allow us to track general information about our visitors, such as the type of browsers (for example, Firefox or Internet Explorer), the operating systems (for instance, Windows or Macintosh), or the Internet providers (for instance, Comcast) they use. This information is used for statistical and market research purposes to tailor content to usage patterns and to provide services requested by our customers. We also have implemented certain Google Analytics Advertiser features. These tools use cookies to collect and store standard Internet log and visitor information on our behalf, including information about what pages you visit, how long you are on our sites, how you got here, and what you click on during your visit. This Google Analytics data is not tied to personal information, so this information cannot be used to identify who you are. We use the data provided by Google Analytics to develop our services and content around our User demographics, interests, and behavior on our Services. You can opt-out of this Google Analytics Advertiser feature using the Ads Settings located at https://www.google.org/settings/ads. In addition, you can use the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-on to disable tracking by Google Analytics.  To delete these cookies, please see your browser’s privacy settings or follow the above instructions. We may also receive other data about your use of our Services from other sources.  This information may include (but is not limited to) information about your activities across unrelated websites and mobile applications, information about the possible relationships between different browsers and devices and information that we receive from our third-party service providers. We may add this information to the information to the information we have already collect through our Services.
• Anonymous data
  Anonymous aggregated data may be provided to other companies we do business with for statistical purposes. For example, we may report to advertisers that a certain percentage of our site’s visitors are adults between the ages of 25 and 35.
• Device identifiers
  For our legitimate business interests, we process your device identifiers as described in this section.   When you use a mobile device like a tablet or cell phone to access our Services, we may access and monitor one or more “device identifiers.” Device identifiers are small data files associated with your mobile device that uniquely identify your mobile device. A device identifier may deliver information to us or a third party partner about how you browse and use the services and may help us or others provide reports or personalized ads. Some features of the services may not function properly if use or availability of device identifiers is impaired or disabled.
• Third-party activities
  For our legitimate business interests, and with your consent where this is required, we may process data collected by us for advertising, including interest-based advertising, as described in this section. Our Privacy Notice does not cover the use of data that you provide directly to advertisers or third-party partners; that usage is governed by the advertiser’s or third party partner’s privacy policy. What does it mean to “serve ads”? When you visit a website, your Internet browser transmits a “request” to the computer that hosts the website (the “host server”) requesting that server to send you (or “serve”) the Web page that you are seeking. Most Web pages contain components that are pulled from different sources, for example, a Web page at a news site may get its weather section from one provider, its sports results from a different source, and advertisements from other servers. Our Web pages contain coding that directs your browser to fill the ad spaces on the Web pages with content served by advertisers and advertising networks to whom we have sold the ad spaces. These advertisers and advertising networks use cookies and beacons to help manage ad delivery and frequency and to identify audience segment(s) for customized advertising (“targeting”). These cookies are used to identify your IP address, so that when you visit another website using the same advertising network, the advertising network will recognize the cookie as one of its own, read the information on the cookie (the record of which sites in the network you have visited) and serve you an ad that you might be interested in, based on your past visits to other sites in the network. Advertising targeted based on past Web surfing is known as “behavioral advertising.”

Kronologix does not provide any personal information to third-party service providers, advertisers or advertising networks about visitors to the Services. Our Privacy Notice does not cover the use of information that may have been collected from you by third parties on other websites. If you would like to learn more about behavioral advertising or to opt-out of having this information used by companies that are part of the Network Advertising Initiative to deliver targeted ads, please visit http://www.networkadvertising.org. Many of the same companies are members of the Self-Regulatory Program for Online Behavioral Advertising. You can learn more and opt-out of receiving targeted ads from them at http://www.aboutads.info/choices.

Some advertising networks require that we specifically list their opt-out links below. When you opt-out of a network, you may receive a “opt-out” cookie so that the network will know not to assign you new cookies in the future. You will continue to receive ads from that network, but not behaviorally targeted ads. If you erase your browser’s cookies, you may need to perform this process again.

Please note that limiting third-party cookies via your browser controls does not prevent first-party cookies from being set in this way.

How we respond to “Do Not Track” signals
When you visit a website in any browser, you automatically share information with that website, such as your IP address, and other standard PC information. If the website contains content provided by a third-party website (for example a web measurement tools such as a web beacon or scripts), some information about you may be automatically sent to the content provider.  This type of arrangement has several benefits, such as allowing you to access third-party content from our Services conveniently. Some internet browsers or other tools include “Do Not Track” (DNT) features that, when turned on, send a signal to websites you visit indicating you do not wish to be tracked across websites over time. However, since no technological standard for DNT signals has been developed or adopted to date, our Services do not currently respond to DNT signals.


Kronologix is committed to keeping your personal information safe and secure. Any personal information collected through the Services is stored on limited-access servers. We maintain a comprehensive information security program and seek to use commercially reasonable organizational, physical, technical and administrative safeguards to protect these servers and the information they store from unauthorized access, use, disclosure, loss or modification. Our security measures include (among others): encryption of data; security controls that protect the entirety of Kronologix’s IT infrastructure from external attack and unauthorized access. We strive to restrict access to your personal information to those employees who need to know that information to provide benefits or services to you. In addition, we strive to ensure that all our employees are aware of the importance of confidentiality and maintaining the privacy and security of your information.

If there is an unauthorized disclosure of personal information in Kronologix’s possession or control, we will take steps to investigate and mitigate the impact of the breach and notify affected customers in the manner required by applicable laws.
