Many websites have a Privacy Policy. Here’s ours.

We believe you have a right to privacy, and therefore we do, as well.

This website has two primary purposes:

1) To keep our family and close friends up to date with family news and photos
2) To provide listeners to our program with extra links and information about topics we discussed on the show

If we post something on this website, it’s usually to address one of those two purposes. But occasionally we’ll post about a topic about which some people flat out disagree with our perspective. That being said, we kindly follow the advice of financial advisor Dave Ramsey who oftentimes reminds people that he is an expert in his own opinion. Given that the name of this website is GregandJennifer.com, there’s a good chance the opinions you get here will be ours.

That being said, over time some people crossed the line and, as will happen on the Internet, nasty things get said. Those kinds of incidents really ruin our days. After one such incident, Jennifer made the comment that it is like we are inviting people into our home to attack us in our own kitchen.

We don’t have the time or energy to deal with petty attacks.

Given that it is impossible to please everyone, and not everyone is going to agree with every single statement we make on this website or during the course of 3 hours a day on the radio, we’ve decided to just accept that disagreements happen, but with five children to take care of, we simply don’t have the time to sit here and defend ourselves when someone chooses to say something disparaging or tries to start an online flame war.

So because this is a website where we share much of our family life, we feel we can set some guidelines for the site. What does this have to do with privacy? Well, it helps us protect what our kids see since they do read our website, and we don’t want them reading some of the negative things people sometimes post when they disagree with their parents. And for your privacy, we don’t want you to end up looking like an idiot when something we say drives you crazy.

So if you have a problem with something we say and you don’t want to call into our radio show so we can talk about it, then let’s keep it private. As in, please don’t bother ruining our day by lobbing attacks or even simple disagreements with us. On our website, we consider that the same as you showing up on our front door unexpectedly to start insulting us. If you do that, we’ll call the cops on you.

So if you REALLY feel the need to have your say and want to lob a cheap attack then send us an email. Or don’t. We’d prefer the latter, but we understand sometimes people can’t help themselves.

Also, let us offer an apology in advance. Sometimes when you’re talking non-stop for hours at a time, you say stupid things. It happens to everyone. Get over it. For us, it just happens to get broadcast and recorded. If we say something that offends you, please consider this our apology in advance. Are we cool again? Great! Now let’s move on, shall we?

Our overall policy is that we’ll read every email and comment we get, even the negative ones, but the negative ones we don’t respond to, whether via email or comments on this website. We believe God would prefer if we didn’t spend so much time dealing with flame-wars and negative stuff. So when people post nasty things via the comments on the website or via email, we’ll read it and then delete it. And if you post a 1000-word diatribe as to “Why Greg Is Wrong” and post it in the comments, just know it’s going to end up in the trash can. By doing this, we’re protecting your privacy because now nobody will know you waste your time by writing 1000-word diatribes about things that don’t really matter in the grand scheme of things.

Again, this is a family-based website and our kids read this site. It’s supposed to be fun. We don’t want our kids reading some of the nasty things that people feel they have to say because they’re angry we disagree with them.

To those of you who have always been so supportive of our family’s various apostolates, even when you disagree with us, we thank you. And for those of you who just don’t like us for one reason or another, that’s cool, too. But as we tell our kids, if you’re going to fight, go somewhere else and do it.
