For each visitor to our website, our web server automatically recognizes only
the consumer's IP address, domain name and referring site, but not the e-mail
address. Subscribers and contest/sweepstakes participants may provide an e-mail
address to us voluntarily.<br>
<br>
The information we collect is used to improve the content of our website, used
to notify visitors about updates to our website, and to send the subscription
and other notifications to the user. In addition, this information may be shared
with other reputable organizations to help them contact visitors for marketing
purposes and/or used by us to contact visitors for marketing purposes as described
below.<br>
<br>
We ask every subscriber if they would like to receive additional targeted opt-in
communications from us or our marketing partners. This opt-in for additional
information is an additional service, separate from the BRIEFME subscription.
Subscribers who subscribe to BRIEFME from a third party site may automatically
be offered the op-in communications from BRIEFME and/or our marketing partners.<br>
<br>
If you opted in (opt-in) to the additional targeted information, from time to
time, we may send you a message on behalf of other reputable organizations whose
products or services we think you might find interesting. We will e-mail you
only approved messages that are relevant to the topics you requested information
about. If you do not want us to send these additional targeted e-mail messages
to you, please let us know as described below. <br>
<br>
If you do not want to receive any additional promotional opt-in e-mail from
BRIEFME.COM in the future, you may change your opt-in status at:<br>
http://www.briefme.com/subscribe/unsubscribe_opt.htm<br>
or<br>
send an e-mail to info@briefme.com <br>
<br>
If you request removal from the opt-in list, you will still receive your FREE
e-magazine subscription, unless you choose to unsubscribe from the e-magazines.
http://www.briefme.com/subscribe/unsubscribe.htm <br>
<br>
Any e-mail addresses and information collected during a promotional contest
will be recorded separately and will not be used for future communications,
unless the e-mail owner has subscribed to BRIEFME services and/or opted in to
receive information.<br>
<br>
If you provided the e-mail address of a friend as part of a referral program,
BRIEFME will not sell, disclose or share the names or e-mail addresses you provide
to any third party, except to the extent that BRIEFME shares the e-mail addresses
on a strictly confidential basis with the service provider which assists BRIEFME
in forwarding such e-mails on your behalf. Please refer and send an e-mail only
to those persons with whom you have either personal or professional relationships
and who you feel would be interested in hearing about BRIEFME.)<br>
