Introduction
The mission of Shane Bow is to share some code examples and programming knowledge acquired by the owner over a widely varied fifty-plus year career in software related endeavors — as well as some of the cool stuff my kids are working on.
The collection of data about you is not our objective. In fact, aside from being mildly curious about which countries our visitors reside in, we do not store any tracking information about you. If you give us your phone number we keep it on file in order to return your calls. And we keep your email address so that we can correspond and you can login to the site.
Currently there is no newsletter, nor any targeted advertising. If in the future, we add these to the site there will be a very simple way to opt out on the account settings page!
Protection of Personal Data is of great importance for us, and we strive to ensure a high level of security for the small amount of data we do have about you.
This page is intended to inform you, as data subject, about:
- the identity of the data controller and contact details of Shane Bow Data Protection Officer ("DPO")
- the type of personal data which is collected and processed
- the modalities of collection of personal data
- the purpose of the collection and processing
- the recipients (if any) to whom the personal data of the data subject shall be disclosed
- the time-limits for storing the personal data
- the practical modalities of exercising the rights of the data subject under the Shane Bow Personal Data Privacy (PDP) Framework
