to enhance their experience in our network of sites, whether to provide
interactive or personalized elements on the sites or to better prepare
future content based on the interests of our users.
As stated
above, we use information that users voluntarily provide in order to
send out electronic newsletters and to enable users to participate in
polls, surveys, message boards, and forums. We send out newsletters to
subscribers on a regular schedule (depending on the newsletter), and
occasionally send out special editions when we think subscribers might
be particularly interested in something we are doing. The site and it's
owners never shares newsletter mailing lists with any third parties,
including advertisers, sponsors or partners.
When we use tracking
information to determine which areas of our sites users like and don't
like based on traffic to those areas. We do not track what individual
users read, but rather how well each page performs overall. This helps
us continue to build a better service for you. We track search terms
entered in Search function as one of many measures of what interests
our users.
WE may create aggregate reports on user demographics
and traffic patterns for advertisers, sponsors and partners. This
allows our advertisers to advertise more effectively, and allows our
users to receive advertisements that are pertinent to their needs.
Because we don't track the usage patterns of individual users, an
advertiser or sponsor will never know that a specific user clicked
their ad.
