When you become a registered member of one of our sites, you may receive updates about our services from Bisart and our third-party service providers. Users should not receive any email or postal mail from any other parties as a result of signing up to become a member of a Bisart Site unless the user has not "opted-out" to receiving such email. You may opt-out of having your personally identifiable data reused or resold by Bisart by clicking opt out when creating an account.
Please keep in mind that whenever you voluntarily disclose personal information in public areas of a Bisart Site, such as the member home pages and message boards, your information can be viewed and possibly used by others. We advise users not to disclose information that can be used to contact the user ("Personally Identifiable information") that they do not wish for others to obtain, such as full name, home address, or phone number.
