If you use GOOGLE Adsense, you should be aware that Google has recently implemented new policies. Publishers need to be certain they read through the policies top to bottom. (They’ll appear when you log in to your adsense account.)
One of the newest policies, and one that has most people pretty shook up, is the one that now requires all publishers to have a Privacy Policy in place.
When I read that I was now to notify my visitors “specifically about cookies and web beacons,” my head nearly exploded. Yeah, so, cookies, to me, are baked in the oven and eaten with coffee…. and web beacons? Web beacons?
Thankfully for people as out of the loop as I am, we have a guardian angel: Jennifer Slegg at Jensense.com has developed a Privacy Policy template for us.
Jen, I love you.
You can copy the template, fill in the blanks with your information, and place it on your new Privacy Policy page. And, of course, be sure to link to her blog.
….and thank God for her…. And light a candle in her honor…… And name your next child Jennifer.

I recently found a new network that is an Adsense alternative known as, Prosperent. You should give it a try as it is extremely customizable and has a high eCPM. I highly recommend it.
Thanks for the recommendation, Leon! I’ll have to look into it. I had to admit, though, on the rest of my sites, I’m a complete ADSENSE addict. I’m also incredibly fond of Chitika and am having very, very good success with it. Thanks again! – Joi
