Introduction
The Online Investigator's Handbook is strongly committed to protecting our users' privacy. As part of that commitment, we have outlined in detail what information will be collected, what measures are in place to protect that information, how that information will be used, with whom that information may be shared and on what basis that sharing will take place. And we assure you, the user, that we will at all times abide by the terms of this Privacy Policy and honor the trust that you have invested in us. If you have any questions or concerns regarding this Privacy Policy, please contact us; we will do our best to address your query in a timely and professional manner.

Legal Compliance
OIH may share information in order to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, violations of OIH's terms of service, or as otherwise required by law.

Links
OIH provides links to other Websites as a resource to users.  OIH is not responsible for the privacy practices of other sites, and no representations are made as to personally identifiable information gathered by those Websites themselves. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every web site that collects personally identifiable information.  The existence of a link to another Website does not imply that such Website or its owners and operators are affiliated in any way with OIH.

Information Collection
OIH may utilize traffic statistics as a tool to optimize our site's usefulness to our users. For this reason, as well as for security purposes, OIH may collect I.P. Addresses, browser type, domain names, access times, referring URL, and page view information of users who browse all areas of our Website. Individual information will not be shared with third parties except as necessary for legal compliance.  Aggregate site statistics may be shared for evaluation purposes.  OIH does not collect individually identifiable information, except that which is voluntarily provided by users via the Contact page or email communication.

Notification of Changes
OIH will occasionally update this Privacy Policy.  It is our commitment that our users will always be aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances we disclose it. OIH encourages you to periodically review this Policy to be informed of how we are protecting your information.
