You may have noticed. I haven't asked for ANY personal info from you. You haven't been asked to sign-up for anything . . . other than donations to help keep the site online. Even then, your info is completely safe and totally secure at Paypal. I never see much of it, nor do I need to. That's why I use paypal! Paypal is a very large, 100% reputable, responsible company with the means to secure and protect your personal data safely. They're probably much safer for processing credit cards than your local restaurant or gas station. That's why I use Paypal. I don't WANT the responsibility of handling your data or your personal info!
I'm NOT a data-miner and I don't want any part of that side of the Web and Internet. I don't do lists. I don't do cookies; I don't do tracking; or none of that. Promoting, hustling and hassling people in order to make a buck, isn't what I'm about.
I'm only out here because I have a lifetime of extremely valuable knowledge to share. I know I can make the way a LOT easier for the younger generations coming-up. I feel a huge responsibility to share my gifts of drumming and teaching knowledge as freely as I can 'afford' to share it. I'm aware that after a complete lifetime of playing and teaching, I can impart almost all of my hard-learned knowledge in as little as six-months to 2-years; benefiting most students, immensely.
Consequently, their careers will begin with the knwoledge that took me almost 62 years to accumulate (the hard way). Many of those students will be destined to achieve greater professional strides than I did, as a result of gaining a 62 year head-start. That's really the only reason I need, for doing all this.
Anyway; the only time I'll need any of your personal info, will be to send you things you've asked for, or to send you your passwords. (I'll need your e-mail address for that.) Then, I only hang on to your e-mail addresses as a matter of record and if we are involved in continuing friendly communication. Otherwise, the e-mail addresses often disappear on the ever growing pile of yesterday's e-mail.
If you don't e-mail me, I won't be e-mailing you. But, if you do, I'll respond as quickly as I can, with all the help and answers you may be seeking. I will almost always respond on the same-day . . . unless something is wrong on this end.
When I do respond, there won't be any strings attached. I'll just send the help you need if you ask for it and that will be the end of it.
So, you can stop worrying about invasions of your privacy. It won't happen here. This site is here because I want to share what I know. It'll be here until I can no longer pay out-of-pocket to keep it going. If people appreciate it, then this thing should pay its own way. if it doesn't do that, blame yourselves: it'll disappear.
I do hope to pass this web site along to my heirs after I'm gone, if it is still paying it's own way. I'm now well into my 70s. I would hope to see it stay online forever. But' if it doesn't pay its way, it'll fade to black, when I do. However; if it is paying its own way, it'll more or less go on automatic, (I hope, forever).
Much will depend on search engines like Google, Yahoo, Bing and Ask. I know it's a lot to ask, but good link-backs to this site will influence the search-engines more than anything. If you
can provide link-backs to the public web site please do it. A good link-back is probably MORE valuable to the future of this web site
than the donations! Therefore; ANYONE who can provide a link-back to
