General
This privacy statement was created in order to demonstrate my firm commitment to privacy. The following discloses my
information gathering and dissemination practices for this website: velvetelvis.net.
I may use your IP address to help diagnose problems with my server, and to administer my Web site. I do not currently
use cookies or any automatic information gathering technologies for any purpose outside of server statistics.
This site contains links to other sites. Red Hare Graphics
is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content
of such Web sites. I do not directly share any information about this web site's users with any service. Any
information gathered by these other web sites are governed by their respective privacy policies.
This web site is designed for adult audiences. Although it does not contain pornography, nor any illegal or
hateful language, it does contain references to some adult themes, including tobacco and an occassional mild
expletive*. Therefore, this site is rated with ICRA
and contains a tag to help identify this web site to parental control software.
*The 1992 Los Angeles Riots Photo Archive does contain strong profanity, violent language
and gang graffiti. This is the only place on the site where such language is present, and there only
for historical purposes.
Public Forums
This site makes a Guestbook available to its users. Please remember that any
information that is disclosed in the Guestbook
becomes public information and you should exercise caution when deciding to disclose your personal information. Use of
this public forum is voluntarily governed by the
Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). Children under the age of 13 must
obtain parental consent prior to using any of these public features and may not disclose personally identifiable information.
Violators may be banned from future use. Additionally, this web site is not intended for, nor directed to children,
and such information is never requested on this web site. (See "Children's Guidelines" below)
Also, this site offers an
Online Poll which changes periodically. It is designed purely for fun, and no information about the user is
gathered for any purpose, other than the logging of the user's IP address to insure against multiple votes.
Security
This site has security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse and alteration of the information under my control. Users found in violation of my standards may be banned from future use of public features of the site. Oh, and then their heads will explode.

Credits / Disclaimers
This web site is intended for entertainment, and is not a commercial venture, in and of itself. I do sell
audio CDs of my original music and a CD-Rom of my artwork, but those items are not the main focus of
of this web site's existence. All photographs, graphics,
text and media are the sole property of Scott Docherty / Red Hare
Graphics, and may not be reproduced under any circumstances without the express written consent of the owner.
There are literally thousands of photographs on this web site. Most are just
snapshots, but none of them are intended for sale, or to offend anyone, or for any other reason than
being part of my online scrapbook. However, if you see a pic that includes
yourself in it, and you wish to have it removed, please contact me, and I will either digitally blur
your identity, or remove it entirely. Since this is not a commercial Web site, and none of the
photographs contained here are available for sale or use by any other Web site, removal or
inclusion will remain at my discretion, as protected under the First Ammendment of the Constitution
of the United States of America.
