issues or to follow up with you. Generally, SilentBug
requests identifying information when you:

receive a newsletter or other mailing from us, you will always be able to
"unsubscribe" to these mailings at any time.

If you choose to give us personal information for any of the
purposes above, this information is retained by SilentBug and will only be used by

to a mailing list, or newsletter without your registration for this service. We
will only contact you if further information is required from you to complete a

What Others May Do With Your Information
SilentBug does not share, rent, or sell any personally identifying information
provided through our Site (such as your name or email address) to any outside
organization for use in its marketing or solicitations. From time to time
SilentBug may use agents or contractors who
will have access to your personal information to perform services for
SilentBug (such as database maintenance), however, they are required by us to keep the information
confidential and may not use it for any purpose other than to carry out the
services for SilentBug. In addition,
SilentBug may also share aggregate
information about its customers and its web site visitors to advertisers,
business partners, and other third parties. For example, we might share that our
users are x percent PCs users and y percent Macintosh users. None of this
information, however, will contain personal, identifying information about our
users.
On-line Store
The SilentBug On-line Store is designed to give
you protection concerning the privacy of your identifying information. To protect
your privacy, we have designed the site to include certain steps to verify your
identity before granting you access. When purchasing products through the our web site, the order form will also
ask you to provide a daytime telephone number. However, the telephone number is
only used to quickly resolve questions relative to an order, such as to clarify
customer email addresses that are inactive, or entered incorrectly.
Third Party Links
SilentBug.com does provide links to other
sites. Other Internet sites and services have separate privacy and data
collection practices. Once you leave Silentbug.com,
we cannot control, and have no
responsibility for, the privacy policies or data collection activities at
another site.
