Your Personal Information may be used for a new purpose different from, but related to,
the original purpose. Such use will occur only if you do not object. We will always
notify you of such use and provide an opt out option for such use.
LIMITATIONS ON USE: INFORMATION SHARING
We will share your Personal Information if the new purpose is different from the original
purpose but would not be considered materially different. Within such use, we may use
and disclose your Personal Information as follows:
- To promote the use of our services. For example, if you leave your Personal
Information when you visit our Web Pages and don’t sign up for any of our
services, we may send you a promotional email asking if you want to sign up. If you
use any of our services, and we think you might benefit from using another service,
we may send you a promotional email about it. You can stop receiving our promotional
emails by following the unsubscribe instructions included in every email we send.
- To send you informational and promotional content that you may choose (or ‘opt
in’) to receive. You can stop receiving our promotional emails by following
the unsubscribe instructions included in every email.
- To bill and collect money owed to us. This includes sending you emails, invoices,
receipts, notices of delinquency, and alerting you if we need a different credit
card number. We use third parties for secure credit card transaction processing, and
we send billing information to those third parties to process your orders and credit
card payments. To learn more about the steps we take to safeguard that data, see
Security below.
- To send you system alert messages. For example, we may let you know about temporary
or permanent changes to our services, like planned outages, new features, version
updates, releases, abuse warnings, and changes to our Privacy Policy.
- To communicate with you about your account and provide customer support.
- To enforce compliance with our Terms of Use and applicable law. This may include
developing tools and algorithms that help us prevent violations.
- To protect the rights and safety of our customers, users, and third parties, as well
as our own.
- To meet legal requirements, such as complying with court orders, valid discovery
requests, valid subpoenas, and other appropriate legal mechanisms.
- To provide information to our representatives and advisors, such as attorneys and
accountants, to help us comply with legal, accounting, or security requirements.
- To prosecute and defend a court, arbitration, or similar legal proceeding.
- To provide, support, and improve the services we offer. This includes aggregating
information from your use of our services and sharing such information with third
parties.
- To provide suggestions to you. This includes adding features that compare
customers’ email campaigns, or using data to suggest other publishers that
customers’ subscribers may be interested in.
- To transfer your Personal Information in the case of a sale, merger, consolidation,
liquidation, reorganization, or acquisition. In that event, any acquirer will be
subject to our obligations under this Privacy Policy, including your rights to
access and choice. We’ll notify you of the change either by sending you an
email or posting a notice on our website.
AGE LIMITATIONS
To the extent prohibited by applicable law, we do not allow the use of our Web Pages and
services by anyone younger than 16 years old. If you learn that anyone younger than 16
has unlawfully provided us with personal data, please contact us, and we will take steps
to delete such information.
COOKIES AND OTHER TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES
We collect certain information by automated means when you visit our Web Pages. By
collecting this information, we learn how to best tailor our Web Pages to our visitors.
We collect this information through various means, such as cookies and web beacons, as
explained below. Like many companies with online services, we may use browser
“cookies” on our Web Pages. A cookie is a small text file that is stored on
your device when you visit certain websites. We may use cookies, for example, to keep
track of your preferences and profile information, or to tell us whether you have
visited us before. Cookies are also used to collect information on site performance,
general usage and volume statistical data that does not include personal information. We
use a third party to place cookies on your computer to collect non-personally
identifiable information to compile aggregated statistics for us about visitors to our
site. Your browser may provide you with the option to refuse some or all browser
cookies. You may also be able to remove cookies from your browser. For more information
about how to manage browser cookies, please follow the instructions provided by your
browser. Our Web Pages may also contain electronic images known as “web
beacons” (sometimes called “singlepixel gifs”). We use web beacons
together with cookies to compile aggregated statistics to analyze how our Web Pages are
used. We may also use web beacons in some of our emails to let us know which emails and
links have been opened by recipients. This allows us to gauge the effectiveness of our
customer communications and marketing campaigns. We use a third party to gather
information about how you and others use our Web Pages. For example, we will know how
many users access a specific page and which links they clicked on. We use this
information in the aggregate ONLY to understand and optimize how our site is used.
LINKS TO OTHER WEBSITES
Our Web Pages include links to other websites whose privacy practices may differ from
ours. If you submit your personal information to any of those websites, such information
is governed by their privacy statements. We encourage you to carefully read the privacy
statement of any website you visit.
SECURITY
The security of your Personal Information is important to us. When you enter information
into our forms, we encrypt the transmission of that information using secure socket
layer technology (SSL). We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect your
Personal Information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it.
No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100%
secure, however. Therefore, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. If you have any
questions about security on our Web Pages, you can contact us by writing or email us at
the address below.
CORRECTING AND UPDATING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
To review or update your Personal Information, you may submit your request to do so by

any material changes, we will notify you by email (sent to the email address specified
in your account) or by means of a notice on our Web Pages or your account prior to the
change becoming effective. We encourage you to periodically review this page for the
latest information on our privacy practices.
RIGHT TO ACCESS YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
You may at any time, and for any reason, request access to your Personal Information by
contacting us at the address below. We will provide such access within a reasonable time
using methods we choose to ensure your access does not compromise others’ data or
our ability to conduct business efficiently.
