Even so, we will not rent, sell, or exchange any such information with a third party for any purpose. In most cases this information is immediately used to send the requested communications and is then deleted from our server.

The Kidney Stone Web Site encourages parents and guardians to spend time online with their children. No information should be submitted to or posted on our webpages by visitors under 13 years of age without the consent of their parent or guardian.

Before a submitted email address is added to our mailing list all online registrants receive an e-mail which must be answered. Only when that response is recieved is the address added to our list and another email is sent confirming their Registration. This double opt-in process is in place to protect your privacy from anyone adding your address to our list without your consent.

The Kidney Stone Web Site does not provide any personally identifying information, regardless of its source, to any third party for any purpose whatsoever from any of our visitors including those under 13 years of age.
