However, these companies do not have any independent right to use or share this information. We may sometimes share aggregate non-personal information with third parties about how our users utilize the site and services. This aggregate information is typically in the form of statistics, such as numbers of Allaboutpipelines.com users who live in a particular locale or fall within a particular age group. Such aggregate information is gathered from individual Allaboutpipelines.com user’s information but is not traceable to any specific identifiable Allaboutpipelines.com user. Allaboutpipelines.com may share personal information with third parties to the extent required to respond to subpoenas, court orders, or legal process, or to establish or exercise our legal rights or defend against legal claims.

We are not responsible for the personally identifiable information you choose to submit in these forums.
Allaboutpipelines.com, like many websites, uses cookies. A cookie is a file containing a string of code text that we transfer to your computer’s hard drive, to be kept there for later use. With cookies in place, whenever you use your Web browser (such as Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox) to connect to Allaboutpipelines.com, our systems are able to recognize you. This enables Allaboutpipelines.com to present you with custom web pages and options. For example, instead of seeing a generic welcome page, you might see a welcome page with your site username on it and information about products or services that reflect your interests.
You can set up your browser to reject cookies or tell you when a cookie has been sent. However, cookies allow you to take full advantage of Allaboutpipelines.com features and are required for the use of the Site. We hope you will leave them turned on.
In addition to our cookies, Allaboutpipelines.com may allow third parties that show advertisements on our site or participate in co-registration to set and access their own cookies on your computer.

We send to your Web browser many of the advertisements you see when you use our network of websites. However, we also allow other companies, called third-party ad servers or ad networks, to serve advertisements within our Web pages. Because your Web browser must request these advertising banners from the ad network Website, these companies can send their own cookies to your cookie file, just as if you had requested a Web page from the site. Please note that if an advertiser asks us to show an advertisement to a certain audience or audience segment and you respond to that ad, the advertiser or ad-server may conclude that you fit the description of the audience it is trying to reach. As always remember, we only authorize our third-party ad servers to employ anonymous cookies for ad delivery and anonymous targeting. Our third-party ad servers do not collect, nor do we give them access, to any personally identifying information about you.

This anonymous information is collected through the use of a Web beacon or pixel tag, which is industry standard technology, used by most major websites.
