ElCloud Homeschool Disclosure Policy

Posted in Book Reviews
The more I blog, the more I learn about how I'm supposed to blog.  It seems that as a blogger who is now doing reviews, I should have a disclosure policy.  This post will be linked in my sidebar from now on, so it can be easily referenced at any time.

So here it is in a nutshell:
Companies send me free books and products to try out, then I write an honest review of the product. 

They do not pay me with cash, trips to day spas, or buy me new wardrobes. 

I write what I believe, although I try to be nice and polite about it if I don't like something or it won't work for my family. 

If a product won't work for my family, I try to present ideas of who I think the product might work for.

If I receive a product I've agreed to review, then I will be posting a review of it, but I will be honest. 

I try to choose books to review that interest me anyway, because my reading time is limited.  So, if many of my book reviews are positive, that's because I chose wisely.

And now the formal disclosure policy:
