Privacy Policy
Your Guarantee of Responsible Privacy Practices

We at Small Business Trends hate spam and email overload as much as you do. What's more, we work hard to gain your trust. We have created this privacy policy because we take your privacy seriously.

This Privacy Policy applies to all the Small Business Trends family of websites, including Small Business Trends, TrendTracker, SMB TrendWire, smbtrends.com, and any sites subsequently added. Any reference to "site" includes all sites within the Small Business Trends family.

You may "opt-in" to receive our Newsletters, special offers or other information via email. You may remove yourself from such services at any time. Any such email sent to you will include directions for how to unsubscribe.

We never sell, rent or disclose your email address to any other party for financial gain.

From time to time, we may provide you with special offers and promotions in partnership with third parties. However, we will distribute any such mailings directly, and will not disclose your email address to third parties for this purpose.

We are conscious of and strive to limit the number of email communications.

Traffic and RSS Data

Like most other Internet sites, we track general site traffic data such as referring domains, browser type, time zone and other data. We also track statistics with respect to RSS, including number of subscribers, type of RSS aggregators, and other data.

We use such data and statistics to administer the site, including managing comment spam, server loads, site design requirements, and other administrative purposes.

We also use aggregated traffic data and statistics for marketing analysis, determining future offerings, and other business uses.


Cookies

We may employ "cookies" to provide users with tailored information. A "cookie" is an element of data that resides on your browser and makes certain site features and functionality available to you.

We use cookies to better serve users of our site. You may disable or delete cookies from your hard drive. However, by disabling cookies, certain site features and functionality may no longer work properly, or at all.
