Terms of Use / Privacy Policy / Disclaimer
First and foremost, I’m writing this page rather hastily and on-the-fly, because Google is more efficient than I expected. Having this Blog up only a weekend, not yet ready for a Grand Opening, and already Google is in here cacheing the site. Believe me I’m not complaining. I love Google. But it’s kind of like having a messy house when you suddenly hear the doorbell ring and your Mom walks in. You really wished you had a little more time to tidy things up before she got there, right?!?!! (smile)
So here you go:
Terms of Use:
Using this website, whether reading or posting, constitutes your agreement to everything below this line. If you don’t like something here. Sorry, but I am not forcing you to stay. I’d love your company if you will behave, but you don’t have to stay if you don’t like it here.
Rule #1: Have fun!!
Within reasonably good taste and judgement, and remember that children might be reading.
Absolutely no flaming. It’s one thing to relate a bad experience, but downright cruelty will not be tolerated. No matter how slighted you feel. I will delete comments or posts like that. Please be civil. If you feel personally attacked by someone, let me know. I reserve the right to edit posts to remove what “I” deem to be offensive, vulgar, unlawful, or inappropriate material; or to delete the post or comment in its entirety. Like the real world, likely 99% of participants will be great and respectful of each other. It’s the 1% who make rules like these necessary.
Privacy Policy
Well, this is the internet. If you use it, you must realize by now that everywhere you go someone is tracking your visits and watching the ads you click. It’s a fact of life on the world wide web.
As far as this web site BuyingArizonaRealEstate.com (henceforth referred to as BARE) goes, I do use StatCounter.com and Quantcast.com to measure my website popularity; and I use Google Adsense to provide targeted ads for you to view throughout my website. They do use information gathered from your visits such as geographic region, browser stats, time of visit, and other mundane info, although this information is tied to an IP address. I do not use any information for anything other than to know how well my website’s popularity is doing.
I do not email anyone unless they have requested a service from me in the past, and they have not opted out of my emails. Of course, you would have had to have directly provided me with your email address in the first place.
In the usage of this website (BARE) some actions require you providing your email address for confirmations. I will not use your email address for anything other than usage of/within this website, unless you personally request something of me.
Now for the “Official” Privacy Policy:
Privacy Policy for www.BuyingArizonaRealEstate.com and Blog (BARE)
The privacy of our visitors to BARE is important to us. At BARE, we recognize that privacy of your personal information is important. Here is information on what types of personal information we receive and collect when you use and visit BARE, and how we safeguard your information. We never sell your personal information to third parties.
Log Files
As with most other websites, we collect and use the data contained in log files. The information in the log files include your IP (internet protocol) address, your ISP (internet service provider, such as AOL or Shaw Cable), the browser you used to visit our site (such as Internet Explorer or Firefox), the time you visited our site and which pages you visited throughout our site.
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 on BARE to support our site. Some of these advertisers may use technology such as 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 geotargeting purposes (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 you and your interests (”interest based targeting”). 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 disable or selectively turn off our cookies or third-party 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 our site as well as other 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.
