By setting a cookie on our site, users would
not have to log in a password more than once, thereby saving time while
on our site. If users reject the cookie, they may still use our site,
however, their ability to experience the site will be severely limited
because cookies are an integral part of our site’s authentication system.
Log Files
Like most standard Web site servers we use log
files. This includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type,
internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, platform type,
date/time stamp, and number of clicks to analyze trends, administer
the site, track user’s movement in the aggregate, and gather broad demographic
information for aggregate use. IP addresses are tied to personally identifiable
information to enable our Web-based service. We use an analysis utility
that uses log files to analyze traffic and user movement.
Communications from the Site
Account Activation
We send all new members a welcoming email to
verify password and username, and that the e-mail address they have
provided is in fact a valid e-mail address.
Service Announcements
On rare occasions it is necessary to send out
a strictly service related announcement. We reserve the right to send
an e-mail to our users if, for instance, if our service is temporarily
suspended for maintenance. Generally, users may not opt-out of these
communications, though they can deactivate their account. However, these
communications are not promotional in nature.

We communicate with users on a regular basis
to provide requested services and in regards to issues relating to their
account we reply via email, in accordance with the users wishes. All emails will come from an email ending in GateWars: Origins.com - if not, do not assume the email is from us.
