Rep Power: 10 | This is the first time I'm viewing the banner in the forum. I suggest you to clear the browser's cache, cookies, temp files, etc. lol... I just double checked... it's there indeed in all the threads... actually my firefox addon was blocking it...  However, I have disabled that add-on and clicked couple of times on the banners as a token of love for this forum.  Last edited by itsmemad; 09-10-09 at 06:35 AM. Reason: Automerged Doublepost |

Rep Power: 1 | I too noticed. Seems it is not based on pay per click. It is about no of views I think. |

Rep Power: 5 | I thought some one was trying to marry as I am getting Shaadi.com ad in my post. Does it affect privacy statement or not? |

Rep Power: 5 | I meant to ask are ads placing cookies? I think they are so privacy statement should have that also along with google cookies. |

Rep Power: 5 | It is covered. I wanted to know if google is also the the partner of current ads which is seen by nonmembers? If not then it can be included in the list given at bottom of the first post there. Quote:

| Platinum Member  | Guests are not entitled to any privacy - they are private anyway. We do not collect any of their data. As far as ad's appearing on pages (in case of registered members), I do not see that - either in IE7/8 or Firefox. But it would be good idea to add the stuff about ad's in privacy statement just in case.
