Our
Promise and Privacy Policy
We
strive to deliver a pleasant site, free of the annoyances that so many
other sites are plagued with. We want you to consistently have a great
experience using the Best
Value Guide,
so that you will return again and again.
No
Popup Ads
This site
will never generate any pop-up ads. In fact, it will also avoid banner
ads! Research has shown that most people find these banners, popups,
and flashy distractions annoying.
No
Spyware
Spyware
is the term used for small software programs that are automatically
installed on your computer, often without your knowledge, for the purpose
of tracking information about your activities on the web. The information
that they collect is then used for market research purposes, and also
to target you for further "offers of interest", based on your
surfing habits. These programs not only violate your privacy, but they
can actually cause performance problems on your computer! This site
will never engage in such practices.
No
Spam
Spam
is the term used for unsolicited email -- you know, those dozens of
annoying junk email messages that you get without ever asking for them.
When you sign up for our e-mail newsletter, you will receive only that.
The email address you provide us will be kept in strict confidence --
we will not lend, rent, or give your email address
to anyone. Moreover, every newsletter that we send will have
a link for you to "unsubscribe" if you no longer wish to receive
it. Of course, we hope this will never be used, because we put a lot
of effort into making sure that you'll find the information we deliver
valuable!
Feedback
We encourage
feedback -- about our site, and about our recommended sites. We'd like
to hear the good and the bad experiences! Such information will be used
to keep improving the Best
Value Guide.
Please make
use of the feedback forms that appear on the right sidebar of many of
our pages.
Finally,
we need to state that although the Best
Value Guide
itself will adhere to the above policies, we cannot guarantee that all
referenced sites will do the same. Part of our site evaluation process
is to look for such things, and we will avoid listing sites that we
deem have too high an "annoyance value". Again, this is where
your feedback can be useful, to let us know if we've missed something.
