Privacy Policy
You have a right to know how information about you is used and protected. This
policy explains how NewsDX.com (hereinafter called 'Company' or 'We')
collects, uses and disseminates information about individuals.
Collection of Information
Survey, Order Form, Registration Pages.
We collect information from individuals when an individual voluntarily completes
an order form, a Company survey, or a registration page online or by means of
online order forms or registration pages operated by third parties
(collectively, a "Survey"). (As used herein, "online" means using the Internet
and related technologies.) In the Surveys, the Company or the third party (the
"Third Party") may ask an individual to provide various information, which may
include his or her name, email address, street address, zip code, telephone
numbers, cell phone numbers and carriers, birth date, age, gender, salary range,
education, marital status, occupation, employment information, personal and
online interests, and such other information as may be requested from time to
time (together, "Survey Information").Completing a Survey is completely voluntary, and individuals are under no obligation to provide Survey Information to the Company or Third Party, an individual may receive newsletters from the Company when they have opted to receive such communication. We do not share, rent or sell email address. Customer Privacy and Security is important to us.
Co-Registration Partners. The
Company collects information from subscribers when an individual provides
information to a third party, and the individual subsequently is given the
opportunity to subscribe to The Company's email marketing lists. Such
subscriptions are provided at no cost to the individual. When acquiring
subscribers through the "co-registration" process, the Company seeks assurances
from the Third Party that the Third Party has provided a conspicuous option for
the individual to choose not to become a subscriber of Company's lists and that
a hyperlink to this privacy policy is available for each individual to read
before deciding to become a subscriber of Company's lists.
Other Information. The Company may
request personal information on other occasions, including (1) when an
individual makes a claim for a prize or seeks to redeem an incentive offered by
the Company or by a third party; (2) when an individual requests assistance
through Company's customer service department; and (3) when an individual
voluntarily subscribes to a Company service or newsletter (together, "Other
Information").
Outside Information. The Company may
receive, store and disseminate information about individuals from third parties
("Outside Information").
No Information Collected from Children. The
Company does not intentionally collect personal information from children who
are younger than age 13. The Company therefore has no such information to
disclose to third parties or to use.

The Company has appropriate security measures in place in our physical
facilities to protect against the loss, misuse or alteration of information that
we have collected from you. We store the Individual Information on Company
