This site uses the products of WiredMinds AG to collect anonymous information about those who visit it. These products collect and process your personal data and use it to create usage profiles under a pseudonym. These usage profiles are fully anonymized where possible and appropriate, using cookies and/or web beacons (also known as tracking pixels) to create them. The data collected is not used to personally identify visitors to this web site, nor is it merged with personal data about the bearer of the pseudonym; any IP addresses recorded are anonymized immediately by deleting the last number block. While these products are directed primarily to assist commercial vendors, Father Venditti uses this service solely to identify the country or city from where people visit this site to satisfy his own curiosity. Existing data protection laws require this notice to be displayed on all web sites where such data is being collected, though most web masters routinely ignore these laws. In their defense, most amateur web masters are not aware that their web hosting companies collect this data, nor would know what to do with it if they knew how to access it; for example, the popular web hosting site "Blogspot" collects this data, but doesn't bother to even tell its subscribers that this data is being collected or require them to display this message, in clear violation of international law. This is one of the reasons Father chooses to purchase his own domian and not use free web hosting services—that, and the fact that owning his own domain and designing the site himself gives him absolute control subject to no one. The location graphs below represent the totality of the information Father Venditti uses these tools to collect; they are not dynamic, and do not update automatically, but only when Father thinks to download the latest images. Your permission to collect this data may be revoked at any time by clicking the link underneath the graphs; this ability is also required by law.

Location data prior to 1/30/2016 is not available, as that is the date the tracking system was installed. This system gives Father Michael much more detailed information than is displayed here, including the region, city or town from which a visitor accesses the site, the name of his ISP (Internet Service Provider), whether he's accessed the site using a moble device and what kind of device it is, what search engines may have brought him here, what operating system his computer has, his browser type and version, the speed of his Internet connection, what pages he's viewed and the duration of his visit; it does not provide any personal information about him. This information helps Father to design the site around the hardware capabilities and visiting habits of the majority of visitors. You may opt out of allowing this information to be collected by clicking here. If the link doesn't function, it's because the tracking system is down and no data is being collected; it happens from time to time.
