In The Following Processes:
Optional Voluntary Information
We offer the following
free services, which require some type of
voluntary submission of personal information
by users:
1. Electronic newsletters
policy (Dispatches)
We will offer a free
electronic newsletter to users. 1st Logo
Design dba Gitano Software gathers the email
addresses of users who voluntarily subscribe.
Users may remove themselves from this mailing
list by following the link provided in every
newsletter that points users to the subscription
management page. Users can also subscribe
to the newsletters at the time of registration.
2. Message boards/forums
policy
Users of the site's Message
Boards and Forums must register separately
for these services (both are free of charge)
in order to post messages, although they
needn't register to visit the site. During
registration the user is required to supply
a username, password, and email address.
3. "E-mail this to a
friend" policy
Our site users can choose
to electronically forward a link, page,
or documents to someone else by clicking
"e-mail this to a friend". The user must
provide their email address, as well as
that of the recipient. This information
is used only in the case of transmission
errors and, of course, to let the recipient
know who sent the email. The information
is not used for any other purpose.
4. Polling
We may offer interactive
polls to users so they can easily share
their opinions with other users and see
what our audience thinks about important
issues. Opinions or other responses to polls
are aggregated and are not identifiable
to any particular user. 1st Logo Design

"tag" users after they have voted, so they
can vote only once on a particular question.
This tag is not correlated with information
about individual users.

request personally identifiable information
