Whitegoodshelp & Washerhelp
The above sites are created, written and run by myself Andy Trigg, a sole trader working from home.
I publish free help and advice and I don’t collect any personal data. But in order to remain a free resource I do allow some relevant adverts which can only work if some anonymous tracking is done so I can be credited with any sales. These would be classed as third party affiliate links, which are managed by official affiliate sites.
No cookies are used to track anyone’s behaviour or target ads. My ads are only targeted in the sense that I personally choose them to be relevant to my site’s content, which I believe most people won’t mind and may even see as genuinely useful resources. So for example on my reviews pages I may have affiliated links to Which? reviews where if interested you can research more reviews. On my diy repair help articles I will provide ads where you can choose a repairer if you realise you need one – and so on. None of the content is designed to specifically sell products. I write independently covering as many relevant topics as possible, and just place appropriate related ads in the hope that some people will use them and it generally seems to work OK.
The main company I use for displaying adverts is Affiliate Window (see Affiliate Window privacy policy)
Direct advertisers
I have several arrangements with individual advertisers where for a monthly fee I display their adverts and promotional pages where I declare my affiliate relationship and tell users about the company with links to their web sites. No tracking whatsoever is done by myself or the affiliate.
Sharing icons
Social sharing has gone mental. Everyone seems to be “liking”, Tweeting about and sharing web pages including me. If you like my sites or any specific article please share it with your friends and family as it all helps ensure my survival as a resource.
In order to make it easy to share, most websites use third party plugins or code, which generate the little Facebook and Twitter icons you can see all over the internet as do I. Currently most of my pages have this facility too and I currently use the most popular Addthis system (Addthis privacy and data policy)
Emails sent to me: Any emails sent to me are treated with total privacy and stored only on my own computer protected by a firewall. None will ever be added to any list or passed onto a third party.
