3. What Information We
collect/How We Use It
· Contact Info. Our Site's registration form requests
users to give us contact and personal information (like your name, e-mail
address, and zip code).
Contact and personal Info includes, but is not limited to, name, address, city,
state, zip code, phone number, credit card number, and e-mail address. THE SITE will not disclose any Contact Information
collected via your registration without your express consent, other than as
necessary to provide you with service (i.e., a shipper of modems will need your
name and address).
· The required
information is clearly marked as such on the registration pages. We use users'
information in five ways:
· to send personalized, targeted information to
the user in the form of e-mail messages;
· to send targeted advertising that allows us to
provide our service at no cost to the users;
· if the user so chooses, to send promotions and coupons based
on their interests;
· to contact users for feedback and surveys; and
· to send users other information about the
site.
· Demographic and Psychographic Information is
used to tailor a user's experience with our Service, such as by displaying
content and advertisements that may be of interest to the user. THE SITE also
may share Aggregated Information with advertisers so that they can target
advertisements to groups of users.
· THE SITE uses the User Contact Information to
respond to your customer supportinquiries.
· We also use the
information to display and deliver content and advertisements that may be of
interest to subscribers.
· Information we collect onTHE
SITE sites to set up your account and enable
you to quickly and easily register for
services and products offered by our third party sponsors and advertisers.
· Profile Data/Aggregated
Information.
· Aggregated Information: Aggregated Information
includes, without limitation, demographic information (including, but not
limited to, age, gender, income level and education level) and psychographic
information (including, but not limited to, where you heard about THE SITE, and
your current ISP configuration). Additionally, we automatically gather certain
technical information about you based upon your use of the Service. This
technical information may include the Uniform Resource Locator
("URL") of the web site from which you
just came, the URL to which you next go, what browser you are using, your
Internet Protocol ("IP") address, and certain operating metrics, such
as the amount of time a service is running on your THE SITE FreeHispeed
Browser Assistant, the number of click-throughs a
service receives, and the amount of time your THE SITE FreeHispeed
Browser Assistant is running. In addition to technical information, your IP
address is a 12-digit number (address) which your ISP
gives you each time you go on to the Internet. Each of your requests for a page
or other information contains this IP address, so that the sites you are
visiting know where to send the page.
This technical information is compiled and analyzed on an aggregated basis,
along with demographic and psychographic information which
has been dissociated from your Personal Information. We use the Aggregated
Information to research our users' demographics,
interests and behavior in order to better understand and serve them. All of the
above Aggregated Information is used only on an aggregated basis to help
determine the most popular services and to provide advertisers with general
user information.
· Profile data is also collected at our site.
Depending on the specific site's products for which a user registers, various
information will be requested, such as information about their vehicles (for
Auto), their children's ages and dates of birth (for Family), personal and
business occasions, and information regarding other personal interests (such as
the types of books, videos and games the user enjoys (for Entertainment) and
the types of home projects the user may be interested in doing (for Home, Yard
& Garden). We use this data to tailor the visitor's site experience through
our e-mails, and to construct a personalized Web page containing the specific
services which the user requests. By obtaining this information, we can provide
our users with specific content that we think they might be interested in,
according to their preferences and interests. None of this information is
required in order to receive the site's service. The user may include only the
information he or she feels comfortable including. However, the omission of
certain information will limit the value of the THE
SITE experience for the user (for example, if we do not have information about
the kinds of cars a user drives, we will be unable to tailor specific
recommendations about car care for him; if we do not have information about the
ages of a user's children, we will not be able to give him specific information
and recommendations about age appropriate games and activities). As a result,
the more information we have about a user, the more valuable the THE SITE experience will be for that user.
· Referral Program. As part of our referral program, we request contact
information (like the name and e-mail address) of visitors' friends and family
whom they think would like to receive the THE SITE
and internet access service. The persons referred to us receive sample THE

the service. The person referred can also unsubscribe at any time; see
