ChargedOff.org  values visitor privacy.

At ChargedOff.org  we are aware that the privacy of any individual’s personal information is crucial. Listed below is a checklist regarding the usage of your personal information that is organized and collected when you utilize the facilities at ChargedOff.org  and more importantly how we keep your information secure.  We do not engage in any selling of  your personal information to third parties.

Log Files

In accordance with most other websites, we organize and use the data inside log files.  The information inside the log files includes your internet protocol address, your internet service provider, the web browsing application used to visit our site, the time of day you visited our site and which pages you chose to view on our site.

Cookies and Web Tags

We do utilize the capabilities of cookies to store information, precisely pertaining  your personal preferences when you engage in activity on our site.

We do implement third party advertisements on ChargedOff.org to complement our site.  These third party advertisers may use technology like cookies and web tags when they place an ad on our site, which will also send these advertisers (like Google in regards to the Google Adsense app) information pertaining to your internet protocol address, your internet service provider, the browser application utilized to make a trip to our site, and in few programs, whether or not you have flash installed.

This is generally collected for geographical targeting purposes (showing running sneakers to a person who likes running) or showing particular ads based on specific types of sites visited (displaying used car ads to someone in search of a car who has been researching cars).

DoubleClick Ads With DART Cookies

We also may choose to implement DART cookies for ad serving purposes through Google’s DoubleClick, which stores a cookie on your computer when you are surfing the web and come across a site using DoubleClick advertising (this includes some Google AdSense advertisements).  This cookie is utilized to provide ads specific to you and fill your interests aka “interest focused targeting”.

The ads supplied will be created based on your previous search history (for instance, if you have been researching bowling balls lately, and are currently on an informational site about birds, some programs like Google Adsense may advertise bowling balls ads).  DART only tracks non personal, or identifiable information that has no relation to user identity.

It will NOT collect personal information about you including, your name, email, physical living address, telephone number(s), social security numbers,  bank account and credit card numbers.  You can disable this feature for all sites using this form of advertising by following through to the link below: http://www.doubleclick.com/privacy/dart_adserving.aspx

You can choose to enable or disable our cookies or third-party cookies in your web application settings, or by altering preferences in programs pertaining to privacy and security like AVG.  However, this can affect how you are able to interact with sites in regards to the inability to use login services that are specific to a site.

Deleting cookies will not opt you out of an advertising program permanently.  Unless you configure your settings so that they do not allow cookies, any visits to a site running these forms of advertisements may result in a new cooking being added.
