Articles on this website may include embedded content.  Embedded content refers to the incorporation of links, images, videos, gifs, advertisements, and other content into social media posts or other web media.  Embedded content appears as part of a post and supplies a visual element that results in more engagement from the target audience.  This embedded content from other websites acts in an identical manner as if the visitor actually viewed or interacted with the other website.  These third-party websites may collect your data, make use of cookies, embed extra third-party tracking, scan and trace your activity with the embedded content.

We may use Google AdSense in conjunction with any other third-party advertising on the website.  Just like other sites, Google itself is also a third-party that uses cookies to serve ads on the website based on a user’s prior visits to the website, with the intention of providing a positive user experience.  You can opt out of Google by visiting their Privacy Policy and ad settings.

We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies, accuracy, practices, or any other information that is presented by third-party websites.  You accept all risks involved when using these websites or their resources and any transactions that may occur between yourself and the third-party websites.  We are in no way liable for any damages as a result of your use of these websites.  You agree that your use of these third-party websites is done so at your own risk.
