This document outlines exactly how we handle your personal information.
Why we collect information

you the most personalized and convenient access to our information
delivery services, and to make a wider range available to you. In
specific, we use your personal information to keep you up to date
on the latest IT news, vendor marketing tools like e-mmercials,
product announcements, special offers/promotions, and other information

industry. This may occasionally include exclusive information from
other technology companies about products and services that can

We collect information about you in several ways. For example,
we ask you for your contact information and interests when you subscribe
to E-channelnews or we might ask for your contact information when
you correspond with us, respond to our e-mmerciels e-reader
response system, register to attend a seminar, or participate in
an online survey.
When we disclose information
Unless you instruct us to pass-on your information to another company
for them to communicate directly with you, we will never disclose
your information to any other company whatsoever. You will need
to fill in the e-reader response inquiry or agree during a market
survey before your information is forwarded to any company. If a
company would like to reach you, then they must do so through our
broadcasting systems, and then, only companies with products or
services that could be of real value relating to the IT industry

permanently deleted from our system and you will never be contacted
in the future (usually we will send you one final e-mail stating
that your record has been deleted from our system to show you that
we have fulfilled your un-subscribe instructions) nor will we use
your personal information in a new manner. The only way to continue
to receive information form E-channelnews is to re-subscribe.
NOTE: We find that some contacts will un-subscribe if they receive
some information that was of lesser or no value to their particular
interests, but later re-subscribe or re-contact us to say that would
have liked to receive our communications on a topic of their interests.
Although we cannot guarantee that we can always deliver information
that meets your needs 100%, we are certain that sooner or later
we will deliver some information that will be of great value to
you. If you complete our detailed subscription form, then we can
better customize the information that we send to you in the future.
It is our ultimate goal to only send you information that you want
to receive the more we know of what you want to get, the
better we can reach this goal.
