Disclosure
Your privacy is very important to me. Accordingly, I have developed this Policy in order for you to understand how I collect, use, communicate and make use of personal information. The following outlines our
Privacy Policy.
When accessing this Website, I learn certain information about you during your visit. Similar to other commercial Web sites, this Web site utilizes a standard technology called “cookies” (see explanation below, “What Are Cookies?”) and Web server logs to collect information about how our Web site is used. Information gathered through cookies and Web server logs may include the date and time of visits, the pages viewed, time spent at our Web site, and the Web sites visited just before and just after our Web site, your IP address.
What Are Cookies?
A cookie is a very small text document, which often includes an anonymous unique identifier. When you visit a Web site, that site’s computer asks your computer for permission to store this file in a part of your hard drive specifically designated for cookies. Each Web site can send its own cookie to your browser if your browser’s preferences allow it, but (to protect your privacy) your browser only permits a Web site to access the cookies it has already sent to you, not the cookies sent to you by other sites.
IP Addresses
IP addresses are used by your computer every time you are connected to the Internet. Your IP address is a number that is used by computers on the network to identify your computer. IP addresses are automatically collected by the web server as part of demographic and profile data known as “traffic data” so that data (such as the Web pages you request) can be sent to you.
Email Information
If you choose to correspond with me through email, I may retain the content of your email messages together with your email address and my responses. I provide the same protections for these electronic communications that I employ in the maintenance of information received online, mail and telephone.
How Do I Use the Information That You Provide to Me?
Broadly speaking, I use personal information for purposes of administering my business activities, providing customer service and making available other items and services to my customers and prospective customers. This website will not obtain personally-identifying information about you when you visit my site, unless you choose to provide such information to me, nor will such information be sold or otherwise transferred to unaffiliated third parties without the approval of the user at the time of collection. I may disclose information when legally compelled to do so, in other words, when I, in good faith, believe that the law requires it or for the protection of my legal rights.
A Special Note About Children
Although there is not now, or ever will be, material inappropriate for viewing by children, children are not eligible to use my web site and services and I ask that minors (under the age of 13) do not submit any personal information to me. If you are a minor, you can use this site only in conjunction with permission and guidance from your parents or guardians.
How Do I Protect Your Information and Secure Information Transmissions?
Email is not recognized as a secure medium of communication. For this reason, I request that you do not send private information to me by email. However, doing so is allowed, but at your own risk. Some of the information you may enter on my Web site may be transmitted securely via a secure medium known as Secure Sockets Layer, or SSL. Credit Card information is never transmitted via email.
This website may use software programs to create summary statistics, which are used for such purposes as assessing the number of visitors to the different sections of my site, what information is of most and least interest, determining technical design specifications, and identifying system performance or problem areas.
Policy Changes
I reserve the right to amend this privacy policy at any time with or without notice. However, please be assured that if the Privacy Policy changes in the future, I will not use the personal information you have submitted to me under this Privacy Policy in a manner that is materially inconsistent with this Privacy Policy, without your prior consent. I am committed to conducting my business in accordance with these principles in order to ensure that the confidentiality of personal information is protected and maintained.
Compensation Disclosure
You should always conduct your own investigation (perform due diligence) before buying products or services online. This includes products and services sold on this website. And all other websites.
Material Connection.
Unless otherwise expressly stated, you should assume that all references to products and services on this website are made because material connections exist between the website’s owner and the providers of the mentioned products and services.
Good Faith Recommendations.
I recommend products and services on this website based in part on a good faith belief that the purchase of such products or services will help purchasers in general. I have this good faith belief because (a) I have tried the product or service mentioned prior to recommending it or (b) I have researched the reputation of the Provider and have made the decision to recommend the Provider’s products or services based on the Provider’s history of providing these or other products or services. The representations made by me about products and services reflect my honest opinion based upon the facts known to me at the time a product or service is mentioned on this website.
Potential Bias and Due Diligence.
My opinion about a product or service may be partially formed (consciously or subconsciously) in part based on the fact that I have been compensated or will be compensated because of my business relationships with the Providers. In some instances, myself and a Provider will have a business or personal relationship that does not involve me receiving compensation related to products and services mentioned on this website. However, the nature of the relationship is sufficient to establish a material connection between me and the Provider. Because there is a material connection between me and Providers of products or services mentioned on this website, you should always assume that I may be biased because of my relationship with a Provider and/or because I have received or will receive something of value from a Provider.
Perform your own due diligence before purchasing a product or service mentioned on this website (or any other website).
Compensation.
The type of compensation received by me may vary. In some instances, I may receive complimentary products, services, or money from a Provider prior to mentioning the Provider’s products or services on this website. In other instances, I may receive a monetary commission or non-monetary compensation when you take action based on the content of this website. This includes, but is not limited to, when you purchase a product or service from a Provider after clicking on an affiliate link on this website.
Your Questions about Products and Services.
My goal is to make your experience using this website a pleasant one. If you have any questions about products or services
mentioned on this website, please contact me and have those questions answered prior to making a purchase of such products or services.
