Google Services
Fanboys Anonymous uses services provided by Google, including Blogger, Google AdSense, and Google Analytics.
Google AdSense
Third-party advertising vendors, including Google, may use cookies to serve ads based on a visitor's prior visits to Fanboys Anonymous or other websites. Google's advertising cookies allow Google and its advertising partners to serve and measure advertisements, including personalized advertisements where consent and applicable law permit.
Visitors can learn how Google uses information from partner websites by visiting How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services. Visitors can manage Google advertising personalization through Google Ads Settings. Additional industry opt-out choices may be available through the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page.
Google Analytics
Google Analytics may collect information about visits and interactions with the site, such as pages viewed, visit duration, device information, approximate location, referrals, and other usage data. Fanboys Anonymous uses this information to understand site traffic and improve content and operation.
Visitors may learn more through the Google Privacy Policy and may use the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
Infolinks Advertising
Fanboys Anonymous uses Infolinks advertising services. Infolinks and its partners may collect technical and usage information, use cookies or similar technologies, measure advertising activity, and display contextual or interest-based advertising.

Visitors may use browser controls, advertising-industry opt-out tools, or controls supplied with an Infolinks advertisement to limit certain advertising activity.
StatCounter Analytics

StatCounter may process information such as an Internet Protocol address, browser and device information, referring pages, pages viewed, visit times, and cookie identifiers, depending on the service configuration and the visitor's settings.
More information is available through StatCounter's privacy and legal information.
Disqus Comments
Comments are provided through Disqus. When Disqus loads or when a visitor signs in, reacts, or comments, Disqus may collect account information, comment content, device and browser information, cookie data, Internet Protocol addresses, and interaction information.
Comments and related information are processed under the Disqus Privacy Policy. Visitors who do not wish to interact with Disqus should avoid signing in or submitting comments.

Jotform's handling of form information is described in the Jotform Privacy Policy.
External Services, Support, and Merchandise
The site may link to external services such as social networks, podcast platforms, video platforms, Patreon, PayPal, TeePublic, or other support and merchandise providers. Those services may collect account, payment, transaction, device, and usage information under their own privacy policies. Fanboys Anonymous does not receive complete payment-card information from an external payment provider.
How Information May Be Shared
Information may be shared with service providers that help operate, host, secure, analyze, monetize, or provide features for the site. This includes the providers identified in this policy.

Depending on location, visitors may be able to:

Regional Privacy Rights
Depending on where you live and whether a particular law applies, you may have rights concerning access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection, portability, withdrawal of consent, or opting out of certain advertising, sale, sharing, or profiling activities.
Privacy requests can be submitted through the Contact Us page. Fanboys Anonymous may need to verify a request and may be unable to control information held independently by a third-party provider. Requests to a third-party service may need to be directed to that provider.
Data Retention
Information submitted directly to Fanboys Anonymous is retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, for recordkeeping, to resolve disputes, to protect the site, or to meet legal obligations. Third-party providers retain information according to their own policies and account settings.
International Processing
Fanboys Anonymous and its service providers may process information in the United States and other countries. Those countries may have privacy laws that differ from the laws where a visitor lives.
Children's Privacy
Fanboys Anonymous is not directed to children under 13 and does not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13. A parent or guardian who believes that a child has submitted personal information can contact Fanboys Anonymous to request review and deletion where appropriate.
Security
Reasonable measures are used to protect information under the direct control of Fanboys Anonymous. No website, transmission method, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
External Links and Embedded Content
Articles and pages may contain links to, or embedded content from, third-party websites. Visiting or interacting with those services is governed by the privacy practices of the third party, not this policy.
Changes to This Policy
This Privacy Policy may be updated to reflect changes to the site, service providers, technology, legal requirements, or business practices. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page identifies the latest revision.
