Contact forms
If you choose to use our contact form to reach us, your IP address, the email address and contact information you provide, as well as your comments in the body of the submitted form will be received by us and stored. None of the information you provide will be used for any other purpose except to respond to or otherwise attend to the content of your submitted form. Your personal information will not be published unless you clearly and specifically request it.
Anonymous Submissions
While sources in an article may remain anonymous for the safety and protection of the source, this occurs very rarely and only in extreme circumstances. Anonymous only applies to publication and all sources must be identified to us, detail. Rest assured when you see “sources tell us” in an article that we have actively confirmed and identified our source, as well as their credibility on the subject matter.
