As the owner of this website Keep Calm Grow On (www.keepcalmgrowon.com), I understand that your privacy is of critical importance.  This Privacy Policy describes what information I collect from you via the Site and how I use and disclose such information.

The Use of Cookies

A cookie is a file containing an identifier (a string of letters and numbers) that is sent by a web server to a web browser and is stored by the browser. The identifier is then sent back to the server each time the browser requests a page from the server. Cookies may be either “persistent” cookies or “session” cookies: a persistent cookie will be stored by a web browser and will remain valid until its set expiry date, unless deleted by the user before the expiry date; a session cookie, on the other hand, will expire at the end of the user session, when the web browser is closed.  Cookies do not typically contain any information that personally identifies a user, but personal information that we store about you may be linked to the information stored in and obtained from cookies.

I use cookies for the following purposes:

(a) advertising – I use cookies to help display advertisements that will be relevant to you; and

(b) analysis – I use cookies to help analyze the use and performance of my website and services

I use Google Analytics to analyze the use of my website. Google Analytics gathers information about website use by means of cookies. The information gathered relating to my website is used to create reports about the use of my website. Google’s privacy policy is available at: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/

Interest-Based Advertising

Advertising Privacy Statement

I publish interest-based advertisements on the Site; that is, ads that are tailored to reflect your interests. To help understand your interests, Google Adsense tracks your behavior on my website and on other websites across the Internet using cookies. You can read Google’s Privacy and Terms Policy Here.

By using this Site, you consent to the use of such cookies and the sharing of data captured by such cookies with Google Adsense. You can view, delete or add interest categories associated with your browser by visiting: https://adssettings.google.com. You can also opt out of the network cookie using those settings or using the Network Advertising Initiative’s multi-cookie opt-out mechanism at: http://optout.networkadvertising.org.  However, these opt-out mechanisms themselves use cookies, and if you clear the cookies from your browser your opt-out will not be maintained.

Changes to the Privacy Policy

I may change this Privacy Policy from time to time. The most recent version of the Privacy Policy will always be posted on the Site, with the “Effective Date” posted at the top of the Policy. I may revise and update this Privacy Policy if my practices change, as technology changes, or as I add new services or change existing ones. If I make any material changes to my Privacy Policy or how I handle your personal information, or I am going to use any personal information in a manner that is materially different from that stated in my Privacy Policy at the time I collected such information, I will give you a reasonable opportunity to consent to the change. If you do not consent, your personal information will be used as agreed to under the terms of the privacy policy in effect at the time we obtained that information. By using my Site or services after the Effective Date, you are deemed to consent to my then-current privacy policy. I will use information previously obtained in accordance with the Privacy Policy in effect when the information was obtained from you.
