Policy for smokedetectorsonline.com
The privacy of our visitors to smokedetectorsonline.com is important
to us.
At
smokedetectorsonline.com, 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
smokedetectorsonline.com, 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 smokedetectorsonline.com 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, ClickBank, Amazon Associates Program, InfoLinks,
Kontera and others from time to time as we determine) 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.
