Terms of Use and Privacy Policy

The Non-Legalese Summary

I don’t share your personal information unless compelled by law.  For example, I don’t sell your email address or tell people your business with me.  If we’re discussing a problem I’ll let you know when I’m passing your email along to someone else who can help you better.

Also, I am not an expert at anything, so anything I write on this site is written from the perspective of a non-expert.  I cannot be held liable for anything that results from you following a how-to guide or other thing I have written and getting poor results.  Please don’t try to sue me if something I have done here doesn’t work out quite as well for you.
