Hi, we’re InDesignSkills and welcome to our privacy policy. This policy sets out how we handle personal information.

ADVERTISERS

Third-party advertisers featured on InDesignSkills may collect tracking information in a different manner than is set out in this Privacy Policy. The only information that they will be able to track is basic Website usage information; e-mail addresses are not passed on to advertisers for any reason even if they are provided to InDesignSkills voluntarily.

AFFILIATE PROGRAMS, SPONSORED POSTS, ETC

From time to time we may choose to use affiliate links and/or sponsored posts as an effort to generate extra income to our website.
