We employ limited and well-marked advertisements because we believe that funding shouldn't be obtrusive. You have our word that Pixelnauts will never charge expensive fee-based subscriptions, plead for donations, or most importantly, ever violate your privacy by selling or giving away any of your information.
We run this site because like you, we love games. Pixelnauts was created to provide a place for people to read, think, and discuss the bigger and more in-depth issues surrounding the industry and medium. However, running the site isn't free. So we offer this simple and easy Amazon widget as an opportunity to contribute to Pixelnauts. Any item purchased from the Amazon store through our widget provides funding for site maintenance. Every item Amazon normally carries is listed. All your information stored by Amazon (payment options, shipping addresses, login, etc.) is retrievable. All shipping is handled through them. And best of all, the products purchased through our widget are the exact same price as Amazon's normal site. Finally, we don't receive any consumer information or data from your purchases (the search records, tracking information, and transaction are all handled through a secure tunnel into Amazon's servers), nor would we want to. Your privacy is important to us.
If you enjoy our site, please consider bookmarking this page for all your Amazon purchases. Again, thank you for your support. Pixelnauts would be nothing without its readers.
Sincerely,
The Pixelnauts Staff
