To be honest, I have no time to sell or mess with your data as I am busy drinking tea and writing this blog. I am also too lazy to do a newsletter. Stuff your data will interact with is my Statistics, Leaving a Comment, Clicking Links, and Clicking Ads. I have turned off personalized Ads for EU readers. Oolong Owl does run Affiliate Links, to make some sort of income as a small commission of purchases are kicked back to me. Those links are noted, as they are cookie tracked.
