Your Privacy
Your privacy is of utmost importance to me and none of the information collected by the statistical tools of Google Analytics or any other tools that I may use will be sold by me to third parties. Outlined below are some ways that information may be collected.
Disclosure on Log Files, Cookies, Web Beacons and Other Statistical Tools
Effective 25 April 2011 I have utilized Google Analytics as a tool to gauge the effectiveness of certain posts and to help me improve future posts. I may employ additional third-party networks in future. Technologies ( such as cookies, JavaScript, or Web Beacons ) may also be used by the third-party ad networks to measure the effectiveness of their advertisements and/or to personalize the advertising content that you see
Disclosure on Blog Ads and Affiliate Links
This disclosure is effective 25 April 2011.
While most of my posts are personal in nature and reflect experiences from my day-to-day life, I could get compensated every so often in various ways.
When I personally experience a product, service or place and decide to blog about the experience, I receive NO COMPENSATION for this as this is an expression of my personal satisfaction or lack of it. In these cases, I may voice positive remarks or otherwise and these comments are solely mine as these are meant for the benefit of my readers who may benefit from such comments.
On any of my blogs which allow Javascript, I may include advertising partners such as Google AdSense and the like. I have no control as to the nature of the ads that may show up on my blogs as these are controlled by third-party ad networks but to the best of my ability, I will review these whenever I can and take action if something is found objectionable.
I may be asked to test a product or service when I participate in blogger events. While it is in the nature of such events for product samples to be handed out, these are usually for the bloggers concerned to use so we can write credibly about the product. The nature of what I write as a result of the tests are not, in any way, controlled by, dictated by, or influenced by the advertisers or their clients. In cases when survey or clinical results are quoted, I base my post on information from the press kits provided by the advertiser and rely on them to ensure that what they represent is indeed factual, tested and proven true. However, I leave it up to you, my readers, to conduct your own due diligence as well on such claims.
I may accept paid advertorials and product/service information may be lifted and quoted verbatim directly from such material, including pictures where provided by the advertisers. Such advertorials and similarly compensated posts will be indicated as such.
Some of my posts may contain affiliate links for which I may receive a referral fee if you purchase through my link. My current affiliations are Amazon and Shopee.
I only endorse products or services that I have actually used and found personally satisfactory. These are personal endorsements and do not carry any compensation. If, in the future, I am asked to endorse a product/service for compensation, I would only do so if I truly believed in the benefit of the product/service. In addition, any posts related to that product/service will carry with it proper identification as a paid endorsement.
Disclosure on Third-Party Privacy Policies
As part of my posts, including posts that involve product or service-related posts, I include links to other sites. These links are meant to serve as additional reference for readers but please be aware that I am in no way related to, or have control over, the privacy policies of those sites. Therefore, when you click on the links provided on my posts, be sure you are aware of the privacy policy of the site you are visiting as each site has varying privacy policies.
Comment Moderation
This blog’s comment moderation is activated. Comments posted will have to be individually approved or disapproved by me. I do not accept libelous or curse language. Readers with differing opinions will be allowed as long as the comment is done in good taste.
