Like most website operators, Israel Diaries collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request.

You can read more about this on Google Analytics Privacy Overview.
Certain visitors to Israel Diaries choose to interact with Israel Diaries in ways that require Israel Diaries to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Israel Diaries gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up for a subscription or who leave comments on blog posts to provide an email address. Israel Diaries requires such information in order to prevent spam and only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with Israel Diaries. Israel Diaries does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. Visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.
Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information
Israel Diaries discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to its administrators and to affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on Israel Diaries’ behalf or to provide services available at Israel Diaries, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. These administrators and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using Israel Diaries’ websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. Israel Diaries will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its administrators sand affiliated organizations, as described above, Israel Diaries discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when Israel Diaries believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Israel Diaries, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of an Israel Diaries website and have supplied your email address, Israel Diaries may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with Israel Diaries and our products. We expect to keep this type of email to a reasonable level. If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it (without identifying information) in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. Israel Diaries takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
