Our Privacy Policy
The privacy of our visitors
is important to us.
We never sell or give
away your personal information to third parties. As
with most websites, we do collect and use the
data contained in log files.
Cookies and Web
Beacons
We do use cookies to store
information, such as your personal preferences when you
visit our site. This could include only showing you a
popup once in your visit, or the ability to login to some
of our features, such as forums. We also use third party
advertisements in order to support our site and keep
it going.
Some of these advertisers may
use cookies and web beacons when they advertise on our
site, which will also send these advertisers (such as
Google through the Google AdSense program) information
including your IP address, your ISP , the browser you
used to visit our site, and in some cases, whether you
have Flash installed.
This is generally used
for targeting certain areas (showing New York
real estate ads to someone in New York, for example) or
showing certain ads based on specific sites visited (such
as showing cooking ads to someone who frequents cooking
sites).
DoubleClick DART
Cookies
We also may use DART cookies for
ad serving through Google’s DoubleClick, which places a
cookie on your computer when you are browsing the web and
visit a site using DoubleClick advertising (including
some Google AdSense advertisements).
This cookie is used to serve ads
specific to your interests. The ads served will be
targeted based on your previous browsing history, for
example, if you have been viewing sites about visiting
Las Vegas, you may see Las Vegas hotel advertisements
when viewing a non-related site, such as on a site about
hockey.
DART uses “non
personally identifiable information”. It does NOT track
personal information about you, such as your name, email
address, physical address, telephone number, social security
numbers, bank account numbers or credit card numbers. You can
opt-out of this ad serving on all sites using this advertising
by visiting http://www.doubleclick.com/privacy/dart_adserving.aspx.
You can choose to turn off
cookies in your browser settings, or by managing
preferences in programs such as Norton Internet Security.
However, this can affect how you are able to interact
with all websites. This could include the inability to
login to services or programs, such as logging into
forums or accounts. Deleting cookies does not mean you
are permanently opted out of any advertising program.
Unless you have settings that disallow cookies, the next
time you visit a site running the advertisements, a new
cookie will be added.
