We do not use any secret information gathering technologies, adware, spyware, malware or any other sneaky nonsense on any of our domain or subdomain sites. Information gathered by the sites for the purpose of registering for the forums and weblogs is not shared with anyone, period.

Any information that you need to enter on our sites for access to the forums, weblogs, etc., we treat as confidential. We do not have any secret mailing list that we sell to spammers. We don't pass out the information at the company picnic or send it off to secret government agencies checking for terrorists.

All such information is stored in the databases on the servers, and therefore could be vulnerable to hacking attempts, but we have never experienced any such problems with the hosting providers we use. They appear to have good security precautions in effect, and the software we use encrypts such data.

We take precautions to see that malware does not wind up on our servers, so please CONTACT US immediately if you suspect that one of our sites contains an infected download file or if you have any other problems or concerns regarding the sites.

Guru Mountain Web Design allows advertising on all of our domain and subdomain sites for the purpose of offsetting development, bandwidth and hosting costs. However, we place limits on the amount and type of advertising, and the sites, products and services that we will advertise for.

We do not allow any popup ads and we severely limit the use of animated banner ads and other forms of web advertising technologies that we feel might detract from the viewing experience of our visitors.

In return for these simple restrictions, we offer advertising rates that are very low. We make no claims whatsoever as to the effectiveness of any advertising or to the amount of traffic any of the sites will get. Advertisers will have to use their own judgement regarding the cost effectiveness of advertising on our sites. Please CONTACT US if you are interested in advertising on this site, or if you have additional questions regarding this policy or our advertising rates.

Nothing appearing on the domain or subdomain sites may be reproduced or used for any purpose whatsoever, without first obtaining our express written permission or our electronically transfered permission.

This includes all content, images, files and source code appearing on the sites or stored on the servers. Please contact us prior to using any of it on another site, and obtain permission before subjecting yourself to legal action.

If you are the legal copyright holder of any content material appearing on the sites for which we failed to obtain prior permission before using, contact us immediately and we will remove the material from the site. Occasionally we receive material from third parties who have mistakingly or intentionally misled us in regards to copyright ownership, or which we believed to be in the public domain. It is our policy to obtain permission and properly credit all material used on the sites, and we will not knowingly or intentionally do otherwise.
