Degbolablog does not collect personal data anonymously (country
of origin, age, sex) and this is curated only for personal analytics. We also
run ads and use some affiliate programs.
This privacy policy is meant
to help you understand what data is collected, how it’s used/stored, and which
affiliate programs we participate in.
Degbolablog does not store
any personal information from any visitor on our servers. We do run ads through
Google Adsense and that information is tracked through 3rd party platforms. However,
it is possible to block this information from being tracked through analytics
and other similar Google programs.
You can Opt out from this by following
Google’s step-by-step guide.
Through Google Analytics we
collect information to understand user behaviors and patterns while browsing
the site. This information is processed in a way so that it does not identify
anyone. We do not make, and do not allow Google to make, any attempt to find
out the identities of anyone visiting our website.

How It’s Used
We try to keep information
collection down to a bare minimum. Here is an overview of all data collected:

Affiliate Disclosure
Degbolablog is a participant
in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program
designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising
and linking to Amazon.com. As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying
purchases.
Degbolablog works with many
affiliate programs for premium art resources. Many links to products on this
site are affiliate links. Readers like yourself do not pay any extra money with
these links. The seller takes a cut so you pay the exact same price for
everything, and we earn a small commission on each sale.
These commissions are not
paid reviews and we are not ever paid money directly (nor do we accept money)
in exchange for positive reviews.
Our editorial guidelines
place a focus on promoting the best products first over anything else. Our
product recommendations are controlled solely by these editorial guidelines
& our own opinions on various products.
