Information Collected

All users who visit LivingWithBugs retain complete personal anonymity. We do not acquire or collect any personal information about you when you visit, nor do we require you to give us personal information to use our website. Your name, address, phone number, and email address all remain your private property. LivingWithBugs does, however, collect non-identifiable personal information which is specific to how you use our website (all sites do this whether or not they say so).

Our servers record non-personally identifying details such as, but not limited to, the server you are logged onto, the geographic location of the ISP you use, the type of browser you use, your IP address, the date and time, the duration of your visit and the pages viewed. This information is obtained solely for the purpose of determining the number of visits to our pages, how much time visitors spend and how many pages are viewed. This information is pooled for statistical purposes and is not traceable to individual users.

We are a legitimate informational website with no interest in misdirecting you, hijacking your browser or using other disreputable tactics.

Advertising

LivingWithBugs may use outside organizations to provide advertising for our site. The links on these ads may contain cookies that the advertiser uses to track the ad's effectiveness. Cookies received with banner ads are collected by the advertiser(s), and we do not have access or control over this information. Though we try to maintain relationships with only the most reputable advertisers, we have no control over their policies or procedures and cannot accept responsibility for their actions. However, we welcome any questions or complaints regarding any ads posted on our website.
