Definition of the Information 825Credit.com gathers and keeps track of.
825Credit.com gathers two types of information about users:
· Information that users provide
through optional, voluntary submissions. These are voluntary
submissions to receive our electronic newsletters, to participate in
our message boards or forums, to email a friend, and from participation
in polls and surveys:
· Information 825Credit.com
gathers through aggregated tracking information derived mainly by
tallying page views throughout our sites. This information allows us to
better tailor our content to readers' needs and to help our advertisers
and sponsors better understand the demographics of our audience.
Because 825Credit.com derives its revenue mainly from sponsorships and
advertising, providing such aggregated demographic data is essential to
keeping our service free to users. Under no circumstances does
825Credit.com divulge any information about an individual user to a
third party.
825Credit.com Gathers User Information 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 (Dispatches).
We will offer a free electronic newsletter to users. 825Credit.com
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. We do not spam.
2. 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. 825Credit.com
may use a system to "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.
3. Surveys.
825Credit.com may occasionally conduct user surveys to better target
our content to our audience. We sometimes share the aggregated
demographic information in these surveys with our sponsors, advertisers
and partners. We never share any of this information about specific
individuals with any third party.
CHILDREN

1998 (COPPA), we will never knowingly request personally identifiable
information from anyone under the age of 13 without requesting parental
consent.
USAGE TRACKING
825Credit.com tracks user traffic patterns throughout all of our sites.
However, we do not correlate this information with data about
individual users. 825Credit.com does break down overall usage
statistics according to a user's domain name, browser type, and MIME
type by reading this information from the browser string (information
contained in every user's browser).
825Credit.com sometimes tracks and catalogs the search terms that users
enter in our Search function, but this tracking is never associated
with individual users. 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.
