Privacy Policy
General Information
As
a standard practice, PubCrawler assigns a random number to each user
for anonymously tracking content preferences and traffic patterns.
This random number lets us keep track of "How many" times customers
are doing specific things - like visiting our site each month - without
really knowing who those customers are. This random number is kept
in a file on your computer called a "cookie." Cookies, by themselves,
cannot be used to determine the identity of any user: Unless you specifically
tell us, PubCrawler will never know who you are.
You may, however, elect to tell
us things that you want PubCrawler to remember. We hope that, like
many of our customers, you will want to provide information about
yourself to PubCrawler because it will make our Web site more valuable
to you. If you are comfortable providing us with information about
yourself, enhanced services are available to you that are impossible
for us to offer to anonymous users. We retain information about
you between computing sessions by using the cookie. The choice of
how much personally identifiable information about yourself to disclose
to PubCrawler is left completely up to you, our customer.
We analyze what our customers like
and don't like about PubCrawler's current offerings so that we can
design better services. We develop summary - not individual - reports
for our advertisers. An example of a summary report might be "12,000
people clicked on Advertisement "X" today and of those people, 35%
had previously indicated they had an interest in sports." The people
that make it possible for you to use PubCrawler for free - our advertisers
- need this information to determine how effective their advertising
investments are. We don't tell our advertisers who it was that saw
or clicked on their advertisements unless you have specifically
told us this is acceptable.
And occasionally we will send you
email communications to provide information which we think you will
find useful, including information on PubCrawler updates. It is
our policy only to send email to customers who give us permission
to do so. In every such email, we will also have instructions on
how to unsubscribe so that you will not receive any future emails
from PubCrawler if you do not wish to, or you can avoid receiving
them altogether via our "Opt-out Policy." Opt-Out
Features
PubCrawler puts control over communications directed to you where
it belongs: In your hands. Every time we collect name and address
information about you we give you the opportunity to unsubscribe/opt-out.
You can tell us if you
don't want to receive communication from PubCrawler such as email
newsletters announcing contests, prizes or new features.
You can tell us if you
don't want to receive communication from third-party companies who
offer a product or service that we think would be of value to you.
And, of course, you can always decline to provide the personal information
to us in the first place.
Unsubscribe
from Mailings
PubCrawler
uses occassional member emailings to communicate imporatant information
to fellow Pubcrawlers. The number of mailings is variable but usually
about one per month. We also have our update mailings which you
can subscribe to. These update mailings give you the freshest list
of updates based on your preferences within our system.
With
all mailings, we stop them when you ask us to. To stop mailings
from being sent to you click on UNSUBSCRIBE on the menu or click
here.
