Relaunch - 10/5/04

The below statements about privacy hold true, as always.  We're excited to be relaunching and looking forward to further growth and service.

General Update - 3/31/04

netweed is continuing to grow and to find ways to balance the needs of paying the bills and providing access to resources that people will find useful.  In March of 2004, we had more than 40,000 page views and 15,000 unique visitors.  Of course, unique visitors are impossible to measure unless all users sign in, a feature we don't have, but that's our best guess based on industry standards.  We're very happy about this growth, especially Clyde, who's the brains behind netweed, assuming this is a brains-type operation!

Privacy Policy - Updated 3/31/04

netweed does not gather information that could be used to identify users at a later date or to monitor individual user behavior.  However, we reserve the right to gather aggregate data that allows us to figure out such things as where our users come from, if clicking through from another page, or which offers on netweed are clicked through.  Such information is not connected to individual users by netweed.

However we do allow partner companies to gather needed information.  Such information includes but is not limited to the following:
setting cookies in order to specify the appropriate delivery of ads,
collecting email addresses and other information as necessary for visitor participation in particular offerings (this information would be requested as needed).
All such policies are open to future change as necessary with announcements posted to this page.

netweed tries to do business only with companies that have ethical privacy policies but, once you leave netweed, you must examine the privacy policies of the sites you visit in order to ensure that your standards are being met.

Currently we are running popunder ads from fastclick, one during each 12 hour period, which involves the use of cookies.  For more information see the fastclick Privacy Policy.

If you're interested in advertising or receiving ads see:  fastclick.com

Our clickthrough text ads are provided by Google.  Their Privacy Policy.

Merchandise offerings come from Amazon.com.  Here's their Privacy and Security Policy.

We are offering a free trial of NETFLIX and you can see their Privacy Policy.

And a free business card offer from Vistaprint.  Their Privacy Policy.

We are also running some text ads for free offers via Websponsors and here's their Privacy Policy.

Periodically we explore similar options from other companies.  Please examine their privacy policies when considering their offers.

We will make the least intrusive choices that will still allow us to effectively support this project.  Future updates will be found on this page and major change alerts will be posted on the home page.  If you have any questions, concerns or suggestions, please do not hesitate to contact Clyde Smith.
