Now that we have you on our site we might choose to say one thing and do another thing.  Your cookies may be used to see every where you surf on the web and we may choose to use that information to direct your attention to this button which will log you into our site and provide your browser with a certificate that will enable it to appear as though you trust us enough to let us install a hidden little buggy thingy that will slow down and eventually break your computer/ device, but it will click on thousands upon thousands of advertisements all across Europe and Asia and perhaps even your merchants content and put lotsa money in our pocket every minute.

We don’t particularly care about what this says about us or who it hurts financially.  Nobody can really do anything about it.  We’ve duped hundreds of thousands of computers and people- none the wiser, cause its so easy. Even if you read our ’96 page Public Privacy and Terms Statements’ or checked our completely automated reviews on our sister sites- the laws are Clearly- Unclear,,, and By the time you hear about ‘us’, we’ll have already done whatever we wanted and moved on from wherever we were.  Getting in to new computers is never a concern of ours.  Even if you don’t open emails from people you don’t know, you’ve got to click on a link or a button somewhere we’ve compromised.

By the way–  a special shout out to all of our unsuspecting compatriots out there developing more efficient ways to “Better Serve” web goers and provide them with a “Personalized” experience.  We have more lists of personal identities, credit card and bank information and infinite numbers of computers ready for us to ‘Personalize’ too, thanks to YOU!  Even our ‘Teams of Automation Experts’ can’t keep up.

Luckily, our industry is one that doesn’t discriminate on any level.  Anyone sitting at a McDonalds sucking down some wifi bandwidth can easily participate using just about any affiliate link out there. Thank goodness for the immense division created by ‘Algorithms’ collecting fees while ‘connecting people’ to the businesses they’re searching for… WE LOVE YOU GUYS– YOU ROCK! (not to complain- but 50% of your traffic is likely from our small group- Shouldn’t we get a better price package than the multitude of small businesses not committing fraud.

We would greatly appreciate you signing up for our mailing list.  It’s ‘easier’ for both you and us if you use the “Sign in with your Social Media Account” button.  We’ll be sure to send something ‘EXCLUSIVE’ to you very soon, but not to soon- after.

FULL DISCLOSURE: We are not affiliated with the site your on  now- we bunkered into your computer weeks ago.  — You just got a message on Facebook, so we’ll let you get back to that -ta ta- We are watching YOU.

TERMS OF USE ( TOU)

Terms of Service (TOS )

not_so_far_fetched

You all know the drill – This page is going to be extremely long and exhaustive specifically so you pay attention to what your reading to explicitly for the purpose of indemnifying us from arbitrary laws that might sprout up if someone reads this closely.  To get to the point, if you use our site- its your fault– not ours– nanny nanny boo boo!

Yes we gather and collect personal and private information from and about you.  As much as possible, in fact.  The more personal or private, the better.  Not just your activities on our site, but all the other ones too.  Thankfully that is extremely easy as there are many different tracking agencies and we can extract their cumulative data quite easily and efficiently and get us well on our way to collecting the more than 1500 points of information ABOUT YOU that we can then sell to just about anyone else on the web hoping to get a piece of you.

We provided some unique content and paid heavy premiums to advertising exchanges to get you all here to our site and let you surf here for ‘no cost’.  Didn’t your Mamma ever tell you- Nothing in this World Wide Web is Free?  Now that we have more and more visitors on our site the advertising exchanges want us to display their content alongside ours.  And they’re willing to pay.  They pay Big Time if we can direct you to click on their advertisements, so we kinda sorta maybe just kinda want you to click on those more than our own content.  It’s a win- win, they get paid and we get paid.  Its our turn.

Content generation and site development is Hard Hard work to get going.  And just because a lot of it is automated doesn’t mean that we don’t constantly have to work at providing the content that is going to keep you coming back to our site, so the ad exchanges will keep paying us, so we can keep paying our content developers to keep producing ways to keep you clicking on more of our pages, so we can keep displaying as many high paying advertisements as possible.

Now, if your tired of clicking to page 2 after two paragraphs of an article (that we- our site- was likely to receive compensation for) or a Product Review (that we definitely probably got an affiliate linking kickback for) DON’T BLAME US.  No no.  Just because we get to display our whole Rolodex of highest bidder advertisements, the practice of splitting information up is a requirement (or so we’re told) of ‘ Engine Algorithms’ indexing the web to provide ‘Optimized’ results.  We look at piles of analytics and metrics as tall as skyscrapers, but we never see new visitors referred directly to one of our second page articles- only returning visitors.

New visitors only come into our site through the ‘Check Door’.  Which is the door we are sending a check out to the ad exchangers to send us new traffic.  We’ve searched- over and over again- (but you probably know how difficult that can be) Anyway, There’s no side door where SEO (that we pay immensely for) will continuously send us Organic visitors.

We don’t exactly understand why this is– Nobody Does.  Everyone you ask and everywhere you look, there are opinions on what SEO is, How it is performed, Where to Perform it– the list is endless.  Alls’ I know is that SEO costs us a fortune and a tremendous amount of time every time the ‘Algorithm’ updates.
