XpertDox may use third party network advertisers to serve advertisements on the Site, on other third party sites with which XpertDox has an advertising arrangement, and may use a traffic measurement service to analyze traffic on the Site. Network advertisers are third parties that display advertisements based on Your visits to the Site and other web sites You have visited, which advertisements might be based on information submitted by, or inferred by the actions of, You on the Site. Third-party ad serving enables Us to target advertisements to You for products and services in which You might be interested.

Among other things, these third party Cookies are set to help deliver advertisements to You that You might be interested in, to prevent You from seeing the same advertisements too many times and to conduct research regarding the usefulness of certain advertisements to You. Note that any images (or any other parts of a web page) served by third parties in association with third party Cookies may serve as web beacons, which enable third parties to carry out the previously described activities. Third party Cookies and web beacons are governed by each third party’s specific privacy policy, not this Privacy Policy.

Third Party Websites
To the extent hyperlinks are utilized to access other, third party, websites, including links provided as automated search results, You should be aware that these third party web sites are not controlled by XpertDox and, therefore, are not subject to this Privacy Policy. You should review the applicable terms and policies of each linked site visited before providing any personally identifiable information. As an additional service to its users, XpertDox has included in its Site various programs and tools created and administered by third parties (“Third Party Programs”). Your use of these Third Party Programs is entirely optional and at Your sole discretion. If You do choose to use them, then some or all of these Third Party Programs may require that You provide certain personally identifying information that can be traced back to You. If You elect to use one or more of these Third Party Programs, then any personally identifying information that You provide as part of the Third Party Program will be available to the third party administering that Third Party Program. By using any Third Party Program, You acknowledge that any personally identifying information that You provide to the third party does not constitute a violation of XpertDox’s Privacy Policy. XpertDox cannot guarantee that any third party will maintain the privacy of Your personally identifying information under any circumstance.
Children’s Privacy
Our service is not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect any personal information about children under the age of 13. If we obtain actual knowledge that we have collected personal information about a child under the age of 13, that information will be immediately deleted from our database. If a parent believes that his or her child has submitted personal information to us, he or she can contact us via e-mail. We will promptly delete the information upon learning that it relates to a child under the age of 13. Please note that it is possible some of this information may remain archived in web logs and back-up archives after we delete the information from our active database.
Advertisement
XpertDox believes that it is important for You to easily differentiate between advertising and independent, editorial content on the Site; thus, XpertDox has developed an Advertising Policy that explains XpertDox’s approach to ensure that the advertising You see on the Site has no influence on the quality, accuracy or selection of editorial content that XpertDox provides. XpertDox clearly identifies all advertising on the Site. When XpertDox speaks of “advertising” or “advertisements,” it refers to all forms of advertising, sponsorships and promotions for which XpertDox receives compensation. XpertDox has established guidelines on how it labels advertising so that You will know what is an advertisement and what is editorial content. XpertDox uses clear and consistent language and visual cues or descriptors to distinguish advertising from editorial content.
The word “Advertisement” or the phrase “Advertise With Us” is used to label the most common form of advertising on the Site. The content of the banner or similar advertisement itself is controlled by the advertiser. An advertisement is labeled with the word “Advertisement” or the phrase “Advertise With Us” along the bottom or bottom right corner of the advertisement. If You click on an advertisement, it will usually link to a website that is operated by the advertiser. XpertDox has no control over the advertiser’s website or the policies on that site. You should familiarize Yourself with the terms of use, privacy policies and other policies applicable to those sites before using them. The fact that an advertisement appears on a page has no bearing or influence on the editorial content on the page outside of the labeled advertisement itself. Other content on the Site page is under XpertDox’s editorial control.
The phrases “Provided By” and “Sponsored By” are used to identify content that is created or influenced by an advertiser. XpertDox identifies advertiser-influenced content as “Provided By” or “Sponsored By” advertising so that You can distinguish such content from editorially independent content for which XpertDox has sole editorial control. You can recognize advertiser-influenced content on the Site by use of the “Provided By” or “Sponsored By” label and the name of the advertiser that appears in the sponsored content.

XpertDox welcomes Your questions and comments about this Privacy Policy or the use of Your Information. Please send any questions or comments to XpertDox to the e-mail address support@xpertdox.com.
