Comment and Privacy Policy
Hello friends, bloggers, and readers.
Comments are one of the two biggest ways bloggers measure success. We love
A comment means not only are people finding my site and reading it, a miracle in itself in the vastness of the internet, but connected enough to what I wrote to respond. Wow!
So, with a heavy heart, I have decided it is time to formalize policies regarding comments and privacy. comments. To me, comments are much more valuable then a bump in traffic.
Comment Policy:
TinaKubala.com, home of The Creative Nerd blog, accepts comments from readers. Any comment relevant to post topic and meeting bounds of basic decency will be published. Abusable or vulgar comments will be deleted at the discretion of the blog owner.
All comments are moderated. The reason is twofold: Weeding out spam and inappropriate links and allow response to comments in a timely manor.
Links in comments must be for blogs or other personal websites. Any commercial links will be removed from legitimate comments before publication. Comments of "nice blog" or other such nonresponse comment with commercial links will be marked as spam and deleted.
Spam will not be tolerated. Keywords in the name field, commercial links in the URL or comment section, and gibberish comments are all spam. Relevant comments with spam links will be published with links removed.
At owners discretion, an email may be sent requesting a non-commercial link for publication.
Privacy Policy:
Email addresses collected in comments are for verification purposes. In addition the blog owner may respond to your comment via email. Identical responses are published below comment on the blog post. Personal information will never be shared with a third party for any reason.
Contact me, Tina Kubala, by leaving a comment on this or any other part of the blog. To request private communication, simply state your request for the comment not to be published.
I may also be contacted via email at Tina (underscore) Kubala (at) Yahoo (dot) com. Or via Twitter @TinaKubala. Responses average 24 to 48 hours with longer time frames possible due to any life event leading to extended offline time.
Policy valid from October 6, 2009
