Privacy Policy changes

So there’s been a lot of conversation lately about the EU’s changes in enforcement of tech company’s privacy policies.  We wanted to let you all know that we take this very seriously since some of the folks who watch our live streams live in the EU. Starting this fall, any webcast we produce will have proper hash level encryption in place to properly store any private information on our own servers.

We’ve written previously about those website built by our friends or family who are now out of the picture for whatever reason.  We can help those folks whether their site was hand-coded in good old fashioned HTML, or in a custom WordPress Theme.  You need in-depth coding, or new functionality built? Perhaps you’ve heard […]
