Our policy is to respect and protect the privacy of our users. We will
not willfully disclose individually identifiable information about our
customers to any third party without first receiving that user's permission.
Does B2Bcast ask for personal information?
Yes, we do. B2Bcast™ may ask for your name, email address, and other personal
information when you sign up for our services. We may also ask for such
information at other times, such as when you request information from
B2Bcast™ and/or our customers.
Will B2Bcast™ disclose any of my personal information?B2Bcast™ will not
disclose any of your personal information, except as described below,
or when we believe in good faith that the law requires it, or to protect
the rights or property of B2Bcast™. Under confidentiality agreements,
B2BCast™ may match user information with third party data. Also, B2Bcast™
does disclose aggregated user statistics (for example, 45% of our users
are female) in order to describe our services to prospective partners,
advertisers, and other third parties, and for other lawful purposes. If/when
we do match user information we endeavor to keep personal information
confidential from those third parties. Additionally, if you make a purchase
from our site, the information obtained during your visit to these areas,
and the information that you give such as your credit card number and
contact information, is provided to the merchant of record. These merchants
can be B2Bcast™ or third party companies. These merchants have separate
privacy and data collection practices. B2Bcast™ has no responsibility
or liability for these independent policies.

How Does B2Bcast™ use my personal information?
B2Bcast™'s goal in collecting personal information is to provide you,
the user, with the most personalized web experience possible and our advertisers
with an efficient means to reach the right audience. By knowing a little
about you, B2Bcast™ is able to deliver more relevant content and advertisements,
and hence a better service, to you. In our role of delivering targeted
advertisements, B2Bcast™ plays the middleman. Advertisers give us an ad
and tell us the type of audience they want to reach (for example, males
over 35 years old). B2Bcast™ takes the ad and displays it to users meeting
those criteria. In this process, the advertiser never has access to individual
account information. Only B2Bcast™ has access to individuals' accounts.
Will B2Bcast™ use my information for direct mailings?
We will send you information about our various products and services,
or other products and services we feel may be of interest to you. You
can remove yourself from this distribution list via a link in the communication.
Only B2Bcast™ (or agents working on behalf of B2Bcast™ and under confidentiality
agreements) will send you these direct mailings.

What about kids?
B2Bcast™ sites are for professionals and usage by children is not intended.
With that said, the safety of children is very important to us. Kids (under
age 16) should always ask parents for permission before sending personal
information to B2Bcast™, or to anyone online for that matter.

(1) We use cookies to be reminded of who you are and to access your
account information (stored on our computers) in order to deliver to you
a better and more personalized service. This cookie is set when you register.

use cookies.

What else should I know about my privacy?
Please keep in mind that whenever you voluntarily disclose personal information
online - for example in discussion forums, through email, or in chat areas
- that information can be collected and used by others. In short, if you
post personal information online that is accessible to the public, you
may receive unsolicited messages from other parties in return. Furthermore,
while we strive to protect your personal information, B2Bcast™ cannot
ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us,
and you do so at your own risk. In addition, B2Bcast™ partners and third
party Internet sites and services accessible through B2Bcast™ or parties
whom we inform you are collecting data in connection with sweepstakes,
promotions, etc., have separate privacy and data collection practices,
independent of us. B2Bcast™ has no responsibility or liability for these
independent policies or actions. The point? You are solely responsible
for maintaining the secrecy of your passwords and/or any account information.
Please be careful and responsible whenever you're online.
