Site Statistics

In general, EarwigMusic.com automatically gathers certain usage information like the numbers and frequency of visitors to EarwigMusic.com and its areas, very much like television ratings that tell the networks how many people tuned in to a program. We only use such data in the aggregate. This collective data helps us determine how much our customers use parts of the site, so we can improve our site to assure that it is as appealing as we can make it for as many of you as possible. We do not link IP addresses to anything personally identifiable. This means that while we will know how many times a page gets visited, the individual user will be anonymous.

We do not use or disclose information about your individual visits to EarwigMusic.com or information that you may give us, such as your name, address, email address or telephone number, to any outside companies. All mailing info is for inhouse promotional use only. You can elect not to receive such promotional or informational mailings by “opting out” as described below. We may share with our Web site partners aggregated statistical “ratings” information about the use of EarwigMusic.com.

Cookies

The cookie keeps track of your order information or remembers your browser identity. It tells us how and when pages in EarwigMusic.com are visited, and by how many people.
