Affiliate Disclosure, Privacy Policy, and Disclaimers
Who we are
Sheryl Bentley owns and operates the website: https://wherewatermeetsair.com.
Affiliate Links:
Some of my posts and pages contain product reviews and /or products for sale. When applicable, I show products I recommend by linking to those items on various affiliate sites. Not only are these links a helpful way to show which products
I am using so you know what to look for no matter where you shop, but it is also a form of income for me. I make a small percentage of a sale that the retailer pays, never the reader. The prices are not marked up to cover my commissions.
Sheryl Bentley, of Where Water Meets Air, is a participant in the following affiliate advertising programs which are designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising (at no additional cost to you) and linking to the
affiliates website:
Amazon Services LLC Associates Program

Comments:
When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/.
After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
