acknowledgement confirming that they have read and understand
our privacy practices and data security measures. Only data
procured or submitted for membership to our e-mail newsletter
service would potentially be shared or sold to outside
affiliates or partners. The types of affiliates and partners we
may share our subscription information with are e-mail marketers
who own a well maintained opt-in subscriber database of their
own and who are seeking to develop that database.
We may also
send you e-mail offers if you have provided your e-mail address
to a third party and have actively chosen or requested, on an
opt-in basis, to receive e-mail offers from other parties. These
offers may be based on information you provided in your initial
transaction with us, in surveys, from information that may
indicate purchasing preferences and lifestyle, as well as
information available from external sources, such as census
bureau data. These e-mail offers come directly from us. You
can opt out from receiving e-mail offers as described below in
the section headed, "Declining E-mail Offers".
When we send
e-mails to you, we may be able to identify information about
your e-mail address, such as whether you can read graphic-rich
html e-mails. If your e-mail address is html-enabled, we may
choose to send you graphic-rich html e-mails.
Keep in mind
that if you take advantage of an offer from a business partner
and become their customer, they may independently wish to send
you offers. In this case, you will need to inform them
separately if you wish to decline receiving future offers from
them.
Our goal is to
deliver offers to people who will find them of value. Offers
are developed and managed under strict conditions designed to
safeguard the security and privacy of our members as well as the
information they submit. Product and services offered through
FoneAds.com, are scrutinized for any content that could
be perceived as objectionable or off-color. Because individual
tolerance levels vary so widely amongst people, all potential
product campaigns are tested via small random samples and
feedback is monitored. Products that elicit negative responses
during testing are deferred from further distribution.
