and/ or facilitation of online purchase and shipping of goods and services from
independent online and offline retailers and service providers. We will
not use the information you provide to us for any other reason than that which
you submitted it for. For example, if you are submitting information for
the purpose of receiving a mortgage quote we will not use the submitted
information to add you to our e-mail newsletter service. Regardless of
later updates or changes to this privacy statement we will never use
information submitted under our current privacy policy in a new way without first
providing you the opportunity to opt-out or otherwise prevent that use.
If
you have signed up for our e-mail newsletter service, we may, and you should
assume that we will, sell your information to our affiliate partners so that
they can send you future e-mail offers that may be of interest to you. If
you do not wish to have your information sold, then do not sign up. The
affiliate partners we may sell your personal information to have different
privacy policies than ours. We do not sell data to any affiliate partner
that does not a) have an easily accessible privacy policy posted on their
website/s disclosing their information collection and dissemination practices,
b) agree to maintain similar practices to proxyservices, with respect to protecting and
securing data, and c) signed an acknowledgement confirming that they have read
and understand our privacy practices and data security measures. Only
data procured or submitted for membership to our e-mail newsletter service
would potentially be shared or sold to outside affiliates or
partners. The types of affiliates and partners we may share our
subscription information with are e-mail marketers who own a well maintained
opt-in subscriber database of their own and who are seeking to develop that
database.
We may
also send you e-mail offers if you have provided your e-mail address to a third
party and have actively chosen or requested, on an opt-in basis, to receive
e-mail offers from other parties. These offers may be based on information you
provided in your initial transaction with us, in surveys, from information that
may indicate purchasing preferences and lifestyle, as well as information
available from external sources, such as census bureau data. These e-mail
offers come directly from us. You can opt out from receiving e-mail
offers as described below in the section headed, "Declining E-mail
Offers".
When we
send e-mails to you, we may be able to identify information about your e-mail
address, such as whether you can read graphic-rich html e-mails. If your e-mail
address is html-enabled, we may choose to send you graphic-rich html e-mails.
Keep in
mind that if you take advantage of an offer from a business partner and become
their customer, they may independently wish to send you offers. In this case,
you will need to inform them separately if you wish to decline receiving future
offers from them.
Our goal
is to deliver offers to people who will find them of value. Offers are
developed and managed under strict conditions designed to safeguard the
security and privacy of our members as well as the information they
submit. Product and services offered through proxyservices are scrutinized for
any content that could be perceived as objectionable or off-color.
Because individual tolerance levels vary so widely amongst people, all
potential product campaigns are tested via small random samples and feedback is
monitored. Products that elicit negative responses during testing are
deferred from further distribution.
To
opt-out of any transfer or sharing of information with our corporate partners
or affiliates please email our support department with a subject in the subject
line of the mail which reads: “Opt-Out
of Transfer / Sharing of Information via Co-Reg”, please email: support@proxyservicesinc.com

Protection and Security Measures
proxyservices is
committed to online and off-line data security. All sensitive and submitted
information worthy of protecting is kept in an offsite location on
geographically remote servers behind locked doors and locked server
cases. Physical access to the servers at this location is limited to a
single individual employee of proxyservices working under a binding and legal
confidentiality disclosure agreement. Operating systems of servers are
password protected and require authentication.
Additionally proxyservices uses a double blind, forced binary matrix requiring
multiple engineers and executive staff to provide the highest level of security
clearance to access data, this high level security includes three (3) things,
(1.) something they have (an proxyservices issued security card) (2.) something they
know a password which consists of at least nine (9) characters including: five
alpha, two numeric and two “other” or special characters (3.) lastly to insure ultimate protection
each person has something “they are”, usually a bio-metric finger print from a
randomly selected finger or thumb these change periodically without
notification to insure constant protection!
