From time to time, 44 Oak may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.
44 Oak also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on https://www.44oak.com blog posts. 44 Oak only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below.
Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information
Certain visitors to 44 Oak’s websites choose to interact with 44 Oak in ways that require 44 Oak to gather personally-identifying information.
