online lead generation agency. We help businesses (“Advertising
Businesses”) locate customers that may be particularly interested in
specific information, offers, products, and/or services. Additionally, we assist
customers like you (“Customers”)

share such information by contacting us or any of the Advertising Businesses via
electronic mail.
The

chose to provide us with such other additional information including, but not
limited to, your age, existing and/or desired income, personal interests and goals, employment interests and history, and the like.
The information you provide may be dependent upon the online form and/or

We

to your computer. This cookie merely tracks aggregate

Information
Use and Sharing
We use the
information you have voluntarily provided to cause information, offers,
products, and/or services that appear to us to be consistent with your expressed
interests to be directed to you. This is typically accomplished by selling,
licensing, transfering, and/or sharing your
information to the Advertising Businesses with which we work. We also use your

Your personal information will be used for marketing purposes by us, our
affiliated companies, one or more of the Advertising Businesses, and/or third
parties with whom we deal.
We will
provide your electronic mail address to third party businesses only if they
appear to us to adhere to high standards of privacy and information security. We
will also require such businesses to agree in writing to comply with all
applicable laws, rules, and regulations, including the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003,
which requires them to, among other things, cease sending you electronic mail if
you so request.
We may use
your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server, to administer our
website, and/or to administer the various online advertisements that we may be
distributing. Your IP address may also be used to gather broad demographic
information.
Any
information we track via our use of “cookies,”
will be used to identify you
when you return, and/or to provide you a more relevant and tailored online
experience.
We cannot
ensure that all of your private communications and other personally identifiable
information will never be disclosed in ways not otherwise described in this
Privacy Statement. For example, we may be required to disclose information to
the government or third parties under certain circumstances, or third parties
may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications. We
may (and you authorize us to) disclose any information about you to law
enforcement or other government officials as we, in our sole discretion, believe
necessary or appropriate.
