Log Files

Like many  — perhaps most –  other Web sites, our website makes use of log files. That’s partly for security, so we can identify any problems before they occur.  The information inside the log files includes internet protocol ( IP ) addresses, type of browser, Internet Service Provider ( ISP ), date/time stamp, referring/exit pages, and number of clicks to analyze trends, administer the site, track user’s movement around the site, and gather demographic information. IP addresses, and other such information are not linked to any information that is personally identifiable.

Cookies and Web Beacons

Our website does not use cookies.

Advertising

This website is partially funded through our generous sponsors and advertisers. We use as little advertising as we can, and — when it’s necessary — only to cover our hosting and maintenance expenses. We avoid advertising programs  with any privacy risks.  In fact, we avoid advertising, period.

Ads that may appear at our website.

These third-party ad servers or ad networks use technology to the advertisements and links that appear on our website send directly to your browsers.

Our website has no access to or control over these cookies that are used by third-party advertisers. However, we urge you to disable cookies on your computer if this is a concern for you. That’s controlled in your browser, usually in the Options tab related to privacy, security, or general settings.

Or, you can regularly use a free program such as SpyBot or AdAware by Lavasoft.  They can safely clean old tracking cookies off your computer in a matter of minutes.

You should consult the respective privacy policies of these third-party ad servers for more detailed information on their practices as well as for instructions about how to opt-out of certain practices.

Our website’s privacy policy does not apply to, and we cannot control the activities of, such other advertisers or web sites.

If you wish to disable cookies, you may do so through your individual browser options. More detailed information about cookie management with specific web browsers can be found at the browsers’ respective websites.

Disclaimer

The Federal Trade Commission requires that we disclose any relationship we have between a product or service provider when we write about a product or service.

Here are the guidelines we operate.

• We are never paid to do a review. We never accept money to review a product or service. We invest our own time to review and test products and services.
• We usually pay for the products and services that we recommend but occasionally we are sent a  a free copy of a product or service to review and test.
• We do not claim that the experience and benefit we have received from using a product or service is typical and is dependant on many other factors that may influence other people's experience and benefit from using the product or service.
• If we create a link to a product in a review, or anywhere else on our website, we get paid a commission if you purchase the product or service.

We believe these are good rules and practices for Internet Marketing. It is important for you as a consumer to understand the relationship between a person reviewing the product or service and the product or service provider.

If you don't see a disclosure policy as part of a review of a product or service, that reviewer may be violating the law or at the very least the Code of Ethics.
