Privacy Policy

We treat your information like we would want our own information to be treated. We won’t sell your name or email address to spammers or advertisers. We’ll do our best to protect your private information (not that we collect much—it’s not needed for this website), but admittedly, hackers are a creative lot and we cannot make any guarantees. Heck, if giant corporations with tons of money can’t defend themselves adequately against hackers, what change does this little site run by a single guy out of an apartment have? But the good news is, even if our server does get hacked, we know almost nothing about you! No login information, no credit cards, no social security numbers.... A hacker who does break into this site will be sorely disappointed with what they find!

Our web servers collect information about your computer configuration including (but not limited to) browser type, operating system, the website that referred you and your IP address. We might use a feature called “cookies” to track your movement throughout our website (and only our website), but all this is standard stuff that applies to basically every website on the face on the planet. You could not do anything interesting on the Internet without cookies!

Advertisers

We currently use Google AdSense to provide advertisements on our website. While we do not provide Google with any information about you, they will collect information about webpages and websites that you visit in order to serve ads that better target you. Check their privacy policy to see what sort of information they collect and how they might use it. At the time of this writing, the Google AdSense program has this requirement: AdSense publishers must have and abide by a privacy policy that discloses that third parties may be placing and reading cookies on your users’ browsers, or using web beacons to collect information as a result of ad serving on your website. Consider this your disclosure!

We’ll also display links to Amazon.com for products we love and recommend—but we do receive a commission for any sales made. Like Google, we do not provide Amazon with any of your personal information but they’ll undoubtedly collect information about the webpages and websites that you visit and you should check their privacy policy to see how they may use such information.

Sites to Which We Link

Our site includes links to other websites, and we have no control over the privacy policies of these websites. When you access another site to purchase products or services or conduct other transactions, the use of any information you provide is governed by their privacy policy.
