Site & Contest Disclaimers

She Scribes is a personal blog. The opinions expressed here represent my own opinions and not those of any former employers past or present or paid opinions. 
 
All of the information that I provide here on She Scribes is without warranty of any kind. By visiting and reading She Scribes you acknowledge this disclaimer and agree to any fore mentioned terms.
 
I am in no way responsible for the actions, accuracy, content, opinions, expressed, products, privacy, policies, services or for any damages or losses directly or indirectly caused or alleged to have been caused as a result of your use or reliance on the information provided by myself here on She Scribes.
 
She Scribes does include links to other sites operated by third parties. I provide these links as a convenience to you and as an additional avenue of access to the information contained therein. She Scribes is not responsible for the content of any other sites or any products or services that may be offered through other sites.
 
She Scribes will make note on any posts where a product was received for free or if there was any financial compensation involved. Please view the statement on any post where there is a review and/or a giveaway just below my signature to learn if a product was received for free or if the post was compensated in any way.
 
As the owner of the blog I do receive free products or services. I may accept financial compensation on posts which will be noted at the bottom of the post. Most products/books received are donated or given away after a review is completed.
 
I always give my honest opinions, findings, beliefs, or experiences on products, books and/or services reviewed. The views and opinions expressed on this blog are purely my own. I also provide information about other organizations, campaigns, charities and contests with the belief that some of my She Scribes readers would find them of interest.
 
Any product claim, quote, statistic or other representation about a product or service should be verified with the manufacturer,provider or party in question.
 
I do not harvest readers information in any way. The personal information provided by giveaway winner’s is ONLY used to provide the sponsor with shipping information. I do not SPAM or sell my reader’s personal information. Any SPAM received by the sponsor’s own web site needs to be addressed with them directly. I am not responsible for the actions of the giveaway sponsors.
 
I am in full compliance of the FTC rules concerning Bloggers. I disclose on all posts where a product was received for free and/or if there was any kind of financial compensation involved.
 
Older posts dated prior to August 15, 2009 do not have the individual disclaimers. None of the reviews, giveaways or posts were ever compensated for prior to that date and all products reviewed were either received free to do the review or were purchased on my own.
 
 
*** PRIZE/GIVEAWAY DISCLAIMER ***
 
When I offer prizes for giveaways on my blog She Scribes I do so on good faith that the sponsor will honor our arrangement and send the winner/winners their prize/prizes.
 
If for some reason you are a prize winner and you do not receive your prize in a reasonable amount of time please contact me directly at SheScribes@Optonline.net. I will contact the sponsor to try and find out about the status of your prize.
 
In the event the sponsor does not reply to my e-mails or fails to send the prize I am not to be held responsible or liable in any way. Failure to produce a prize falls souly on the sponsor. I cannot be held accountable for the actions of the sponsor.
 
Please note that sometimes prizes take a while to process and ship. Please allow for a reasonable amount of time to receive your prize. If you do not receive anything within 3 weeks please feel free to contact me. Prizes can take from 1-8 weeks to shipped out, depending on the prize and the company. Please do not wait months to contact me about a prize not received because by then it could be too late.
 
All rules of the giveaway must be followed or entries will be voided.I have the right to remove entries if I feel they are in violation of any rules (Twitter and Facebook rules included) or considered SPAM.
 
Occasionally a sponsor might have rules set up as to how many wins a single person can have each  month. If a sponsor does not want to award multiple prizes to a single winner during a specific time frame I have no control over that and is an issue the winner must take up with the sponsor.
 
When using the Twitter “tweeting” option you are allowed a maximum of three tweets per day. All others will be disqualified.
 
Please refer to Twitter’s rules on SPAM
