TELEVISION OF NOMADS PRIVACY POLICY:
This privacy policy sets out how Television of Nomads uses and protects any information that you give us when you use this website.
We are committed to ensuring that your privacy is protected. Should we ask you to provide certain information by which you can be identified when using this website, then you can be assured that it will only be used in accordance with this privacy statement.
This policy may change from time to time and will be updated on this page. You should check this page from time to time to ensure that you are happy with any changes. This policy is effective from 8/29/2022.
Most of the data that is collected on this website is automatic or done in the background. The only time we’d have your personal data (such as name and email address) is if you manually entered it into the site somewhere. We don’t take information or data from our users. The only reason our website takes any data at all is to help us better serve you.
If you’re worried about us using your data incorrectly, or selling it to a third-party, don’t worry. We only use the data you give us freely and are not trying to get any information from you that doesn’t help us serve you better.
Our website (like almost all websites today) will store cookies in your browser. These cookies can not only help your user experience, but they also allow us to earn commissions through our affiliate partners.
When we recommend a product and you click the link and make a purchase, sometimes (not always) we are rewarded with a commission. These transactions will NEVER cost you an extra cent and in many cases, you actually receive a discount for using our links. Cookies are what make this possible, so by allowing our website to use cookies, you’re actually helping keep this site running. Without cookies, we wouldn’t make any commissions and therefore wouldn’t be able to offer so much amazing content for free.
