We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer to outside parties your personally identifiable information. This does not include trusted third parties who assist us in operating our website, conducting our business, or servicing you, so long as those parties agree to keep this information confidential. We may also release your information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law, enforce our site policies, or protect ours or others rights, property, or safety. However, non-personally identifiable visitor information may be provided to other parties for marketing, advertising, or other uses.

Occasionally, at our discretion, we may include or offer third party products or services on our website. These third party sites have separate and independent privacy policies. We therefore have no responsibility or liability for the content and activities of these linked sites. Nonetheless, we seek to protect the integrity of our site and welcome any feedback about these sites.

Affiliate Disclosure

Here at Ilona’s Garden / Garden Librarian I believe in complete transparency. Having said that, please recognize that I may place ads on the site from various advertisers. You will also likely see Google Adsense ads in various locations on the site. You should be able to see these as text links or blocks of ads which have a small notation indicating “Ads by Google” or “Ad Choices.”

What information do we collect?

Google, as a third party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads on your site. Google’s use of the DART cookie enables it to serve ads to your users based on their visit to your sites and other sites on the Internet. Users may opt out of the use of the DART cookie by visiting the Google ad and content network privacy policy..

Additionally, many of the links in my reviews that point to external websites like Amazon.com are affiliate links. This means that I will receive a small commission if one of this site’s readers decides to purchase a product I link to. This isn’t to say that all of the links on Ilona’s Garden / Garden Librarian are affiliate links, but it should be clear that Ilona’s Garden / Garden Librarian is a for-profit website.
