WORDPAINT - Technical Help:
About Javascript, Cookies & Privacy

JAVASCRIPT is a language developed to facilitate user-interactivity and animation on websites.

Almost 100% of websites currently in operation depend on javascript to automate their user interface functions.

Javascript is a scripting language whose "interpreter" is built right into your internet browser. Javascript is one of the core languages that enables user interactive functions on web-sites such as filling out and submitting forms, shopping carts and saving your user preferences and passwords to websites. An extremely high percentage of Internet Users are comfortable with having Javascript enabled in their browsers.

Many of the navigation features in WordPaint depend on Javascript. Because of the size and scope of WordPaint, navigation bar codes are written into Javascript files which are then automatically loaded when the page loads in your browser. That way, if we add a new language, all we have to do is update the Javascript file and all pages will list the new language.

If JAVASCRIPT is DISABLED in your browser, you will not be able to navigate effectively throughout this website.

COOKIES are used by this website to improve our STATISTICS reporting.

Cookies are used by WordPaint to help improve the SITE STATISTICS that are normally maintained by all websites at the server level. Since we are not asking for user input from you, the only information the cookie can generate for us is whether you are a return visitor or a first-time visitor.

All websites, even those NOT using cookies, can "see" your IP number, your "referrer" (site whose link you clicked on to get to us), search-engine phrases used to find their site; and they can also log which pages in their sites you are visiting. Even though you can "turn off" cookies in your browser preferences, this will not prevent any site you visit from gathering the above information. Most people disable cookies due to "3rd party cookies" set by websites who sell or lease this information to consumer profiling services. No such 3rd-party cookies are used by this website.

PRIVACY & SECURITY: WordPaint regards visitor privacy as a priority.

We don't collect any personal information here. You're not filling in any forms, or purchasing any goods. Even emails you send to our administration will not be used for any purpose other than answering your inquiries. The "cookie" information that our Web Statistics services (Google & Statcounter) collect only tell us how many visitors we're getting, how long they spend on the site, and approximate geographic location (ie, country of origin). This helps us with language programming and designing the site for ease of use for the majority of visitors.
