FTC Disclosure

Our web site uses Prosperent and/or Infolinks to automatically affiliate our commercial links. We want you to know that we sometimes get paid if you click one of those links and purchase a product or service. On our site, these links will uniquely be displayed as double underlined instead of single underlined or non-underlined links. The presence of such links does not constitute an endorsement or recommendation by us. Regardless of the potential revenue, unless stated otherwise, we only recommend products or services we use personally.

This disclosure is provided in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission's 16 CFR § 255.5: Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising.

Similarly, any banner ads or any other type of text or graphical ad does not represent an endorsement by us of any advertised product or service unless otherwise stated.

We may occasionally send bulk emails about Tech Fusion Online, or matters relating to science and technology news and info to our members. We will not send bulk e-mails or allow others to send bulk e-mails, which we believe would be considered spam.

The staff reserve the right to read any Private Topics and posts placed on this website. Any form of conversation made through this website should be considered viewable by staff. All private-posts and posts, whether 'deleted' or not, are stored on the server and may be reviewed if we feel we have cause for an investigation. If you do want to keep something private, do not use our services for transmitting it. Situations involving investigations can be anything at our discretion, for example, to investigate specific incidents of our services being used for racism or harassment.
