There are those who visit this site because they want to be an advertiser for the site. From here on in, they will be referred to as “users.”
When a potential advertiser establishes an advertising account with us and agrees to our specific advertiser agreement, this individual is now considered to be an Advertiser. This holds true whether he or she has published or prepared an advertisement.
Furthermore, advertisers (and any related data collection) are not governed by this Privacy Policy. Instead, they are governed by the guidelines dictated by the advertiser agreement. From here on in, advertisers are no longer considered to be “users.”
This Privacy Policy is applicable to users and details how we make use of the information we get when you visit our site or partake in any of our online services. It doesn’t pertain to any information that we may get about you from other channels. You are giving us consent to have and use your information as detailed in this document, no matter when it was obtained.

At this point, we would also like to note that the date of the last time that this policy was revised can be found at the top of this page. If this date is different than the one that you saw on your previous visit, it indicates that the Policy has been edited/updated in the interim. Furthermore, from the moment that it is posted, this new policy supersedes any previous versions.
