Blindedbyhiphop.com uses this information to screen out users who leave comments prohibited by our terms and conditions of use, and will not pass this information to any other organization.
Third Party Cookies
Some of our business partners may use cookies on our site (for example, advertisers). However, Blindedbyhiphop.com has no access to or control over these cookies, once we have given permission for them to set cookies for advertising. This privacy statement covers the use of cookies by blindedbyhiphop.com only and does not cover the use of cookies by any advertisers. I rarely ever eat cookies but my favorite is chocolate chip.
Third Party Advertising
The advertisements appearing on blindedbyhiphop.com are delivered to users by Google, among other services. Information about users’ visits to this site, such as number of times they have viewed an ad (but not username, date of birth, or any other personal information), is used to serve ads to users on this site. No personal information about our users is ever transferred to any party by Blindedbyhiphop.com; unless you want to give me your phone number. Keep in mind that I have figured out that ‘555′ numbers are not real, so don’t try that shit with me.
Log Files
Like most standard Website servers we use log files. This includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, internet service providers (ISPs), referring/exit pages, platform type, date/time stamp, and number of clicks to analyze trends, administer the site, track user’s movement in the aggregate, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. IP addresses, etc. are not linked to personally identifiable information. We may use a tracking utility that uses log files to analyze user movement.
Legal Disclaimer
Though we make every effort to preserve user privacy, Blindedbyhiphop.com may need to disclose personal information when required by law wherein we have a good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with a current judicial proceeding, a court order or legal process served on our Website.
Business Transitions
In the event blindedbyhiphop.com goes through a business transition, such as a merger, acquisition by another company or sale of a portion of its assets, users’ personal information will, in most instances, be part of the assets transferred. Basically, I am asking you to acquire my company for lots and lots of money.
Links
Blindedbyhiphop.com contains links to other sites. Please be aware that we, blindedbyhiphop.com , are not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites (although several hundred websites use the exact same privacy policy that we are using here). We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every Website that collects personally identifiable information. This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by blindedbyhiphop.com.
Notification of Changes
Whenever blindedbyhiphop.com changes our privacy policy, we will post those changes to this privacy statement, and other places we deem appropriate so our users are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it.
Regarding Images and Copyrighted Material
If you see an image on this site that you believe to be in violation of copyright laws and/or you are the rightful owner of those images and/or content and believe that said content is not being properly used then EMAIL ME DIRECTLY and I will make sure that we rectify the situation immediately including but not limited to payment and/or deletion of the images. We receive images from several contributors and we have several writers. We always strive to use only open source, royalty free images or else we pay the appropriate fee to use images through a service. Occasionally, we get images that are believed to be royalty free only to find out that they are owned by another party. When we are notified, we make these images unavailable to users. If the images in question are proven to be owned by a third party then we delete the images from our servers, say 3 Hail Mary’s, and spit. We are also Affiliates of several websites that offer us content that is otherwise unavailable. So before you complain to our hosting company about it. EMAIL ME DIRECTLY and we’ll rectify the situation.
I jacked this from one of my favorite blogs straightfromthea.com and she jacked it from somewhere else so before you try to run and tell it’s already out there.
