I am writing a piece on Internet privacy and wanted to get some thoughts
from Webmasters out there about how they compile and use reader data. Some
questions I'd like to address:

-- what kind of information do you collect?
-- do you use cookies to collect information?
-- what do you do with the data?
-- do you have a policy (accessible on your Web site) that tells people
what you will and will not do with collected data?
-- as a Web user, are you concerned about the amount of information that
can be collected about you as roam around?

Please include contact information in your reply so that I can call to
follow-up. I will post the completed story after it is published.
