Who we are
My name is Chris French and my website is https://www.frenchus.com.
First, privacy and discretion is of the highest priority to me. I will never share any of your information. I have comments disabled on this site and the only way to contact me through this website is with the contact form protected by SSL encryption. I do use Google reCaptcha to filter out SPAM and Google may track some data to effectively identify what is SPAM or not. The reCaptcha icon on each page of this website has a link to Google’s terms and privacy policy.
This website is based on a premium WordPress theme and utilizes plugins for various functionality. I am very selective in what code I deploy on my website and take precautions to verify it is safe and secure.
The rest of this privacy policy is boilerplate jargon.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
