My Dot Com Website Privacy Policy

Privacy policyYo I was in chat with @kristinbrennan doing some work for our company, and this is one of the things that came out of my button-thing with the letters and numerals on it.

Brian: :/
Brian: I think I’m gonna write a privacy policy thing for my site
Brian: I always see those things and I’ve never actually clicked on one

Kristin: yeah whats that entail?

Brian: I don’t know – I want to write one based only on what I think it is

Kristin: i was gonna say thats what you should do!

Brian: I’m putting this portion of the chat into the post btw

PRIVACY POLICY:

Any given post might just be me brainstorming. Don’t ask what I mean unless I ask you to ask. Sometimes my public blog posts are just private thoughts for me, and I don’t want anyone to see them.

Like my middle name is for me. That’s an example.

Even though I’m on Twitter a lot, sometimes I’m in Atlanta, but you’d never know that, because it’s private.

Sometimes I like to be by myself, and that’s privacy, too.

If we get married, I don’t want to share a bathroom ever, and if we can only afford a place with one of those, then I’ll get a hotel room, and then like that’ll be another bathroom for us.

My email address (mike@gmail.com) is private.

What’s your privacy policy, and what do you think I meant by this post.

(First WSM? teaser is Tuesday – only on the Facebook Page, so go join it.)

    My policy is.. If you come by my place unannounced, that mess in the living room is just me experimenting with a new art form. Ignore it.

    Love the multiple talkings to yourself.

    “Brian: :/
    Brian: I think I’m gonna write a privacy policy thing for my site
    Brian: I always see those things and I’ve never actually clicked on one”

    MY privacy policy reads as follows…

    —————————
    And THAT is verbatim.

    Did you just invite the internet over -

    WTF, you have usurped the usual “no picture avatar” with this new Merri Sherman athletic wear thingy? LOL

  • http://brian23.com Brian

    Oh that was in the middle of a chat – it wasn't the start of the chat. lol

    And yeah, I like excitement default avatars rather than generic default avatars.

    HA! Yeah right, “middle of a chat” but all grouped together to start the conversation in the blog? Stop killing me, you're killing me, killing me dead :)! And I'm stealing the idea for my next blog. I like the new anonymous “avatar” too. I like it a lot, it reminds me of Bruce Willis, Will Smith and LL Cool J and whoever else you adore, because I'm just buttering you up at this point, hoping for cash or at least a Best Buy gift certificate.

    The internet can come by only if they bring food and liquor. And for pete's sake put the lid down! How hard is that?

    If you look at me when I'm not looking at you, I think that's an invasion of my privacy. Also, when I post something on the internet from the privacy of my own home, I don't see why that shouldn't stay private. I mean, if I was posting stuff from McDonalds or an internet cafe, that's another story.

    See, you get it. Thanks Darryl – I would vote for you in like an election or like if there was a contest and you could win a prize if you won.

    Gosh I just did the serious laughing for a long time –and thats private.

  • http://brian23.com Brian

    What's funny is after I wrote this I meant to go read an actual one and I forgot.

  • TVBrain

    from McDonalds or an internet cafE

    My privacy policy is, I say stuff, and you tell me at what point it is TMI.

  • http://twitter.com/Dennymayo Dennis Mayo

    I thought McDonalds was selling internet cafes called “McCafe”

    Fascinating. This is great stuff, but that's not what is fascinating. It would seem that my gravatar's been hacked….

  • http://brian23.com Brian

    I see a Batman head – what is it supposed to be -

  • Batman

    It was a #23 jersey… But I fixed my preferences after the fact… :)

  • http://brian23.com Brian

    Yeah anyone without an avatar or not signed up with Disqus gets the default 23.

  • Batman

    Well, I had my avatar, I just didn't realize there was a setting in Disqus that I needed to modify….

    This conversation sounds like something private.
