In order to provide our users with a more complete understanding of how the ProducersWEB sites collect and use information from our users, we have provided the following information:

Internet Protocol (IP) Address
The ProducersWEB sites log IP addresses for systems administration, diagnostic, and site tracking purposes, and to report aggregate information to advertisers. The ProducersWEB sites do not link IP addresses to information identifying users individually.

Cookies
The ProducersWEB sites use files called "cookies" to store usernames, passwords, and other user preferences so that users don't have to re-enter this information each time they use a particular ProducersWEB site. You should be aware that advertisers serving ads on the ProducersWEB sites may use their own cookies.

Information Collection and Opt-Out
The ProducersWEB sites' registration forms ask users to enter contact information (like their email address), general information (like their city, state), professional information (like their designations) and demographic information (like their zip code, income level). The forms also require unique identifiers (username and password) so that users can be verified when they access the ProducersWEB sites. The contact information primarily is used to send users weekly emails and other information they have requested and other information as stated in this Privacy Policy. Users may opt out of receiving future email updates by clicking on or going to the applicable link in any email or other document and following the instructions. The demographic information is used among other things, to tailor users' experiences at the ProducersWEB sites, distribute and show you content that we think you might be interested in, and display site content according to your preferences.

In addition, advertisers or web sites that have links on the ProducersWEB sites may collect personally identifiable information about you. The privacy and information practices of those advertisers or web sites linked to the ProducersWEB sites are not covered by this Privacy Policy.
