As a general rule, if everyone is respectful and behaves like adults, there won’t be any problems on our web sites. That’s the way most people like things to work, but unfortunately it doesn’t always happen that way. As a result, although nobody really likes it, everyone has to protect themselves, including us. This means that there are important terms and conditions that you need to know about when using our sites. Please read them carefully, and contact us if you have any questions, comments, or concerns.
These terms & conditions were last reviewed on Monday, December 27, 2021.
About our Sites
- You are currently visiting a site run by Stannum Enterprises, LLC, the small business owned and operated by Will and Catherine Estes. Our main site’s URL is https://stannumenterprises.com and we are the owners, in addition to being the operators.

- Sites are operated using a self-hosted WordPress installation and the Asteroid theme. Both are kept up to date.
- Although every effort is made to prevent the inadvertent “back door” installation of malware, viruses, and similar destructive code and programs, no guarantee can be made and the site owners accept no responsibility for the presence of such items. Keep your firewall turned on.
- Information presented on these sites is correct to the best of the poster’s knowledge and is presented in good faith, but it should not be deemed expert or reliable advice. The end user bears the full responsibility for any consequences that may occur as a result of using the information on these sites.
- These sites are generally appropriate for all ages; however, occasional items may be inappropriate for users under age 13. In most cases these items will be clearly labeled; however, no guarantee is made and no liability will be accepted for issues related to age-appropriateness. Parents, please monitor your children’s Internet activities.
- Unless otherwise indicated, site themes, images, text and design are copyrighted. All rights are reserved and no item may be reproduced without specific permission.

This information is primarily stored in small files known as cookies, and is to “remember” you, your preferences and your activity. Any information publicly disclosed may be displayed publicly, and may be indexed by search engines or used by third parties.
- You may request deletion and removal of public information or cookies at any time. Requests will be honored within thirty days, but any historical information (such as prior comments) may still contain identifying data.
- Non-public information is not shared with third parties except as necessary for analytical purposes; or in response to a subpoena, court order or similar governmental request. Information may also be disclosed in situations where, in the site owners’ good-faith opinions, it is necessary to prevent death, serious physical injury, significant property theft or other serious emergencies.

Comments that contain threats, attempts at “doxxing,” defamation and/or other objectionable material (including profanity, spam or pornography) may not only be disapproved or deleted, but may also be reported to authorities as appropriate. Decisions involving approval or denial of comments, including any resultant user bans, are final and may not be appealed.
- Links to other sites are shared for informational purposes only, and any such link should never be considered as an endorsement or an approval of content on the other site.
