How Do We Use the Information We Collect?

When you become an "FREE-SOURCE.NET" member, we ask you to fill out a form that requests your name, address and e-mail address as well as some demographic information such as gender and date of birth. "FREE-SOURCE.NET" will NOT share data with trusted partners to help us perform statistical analysis. Your name and address information is used solely to process orders unless your prior consent is given. Without your consent, this information will NEVER be sold, given, rented or traded to others for purposes other than order fulfillment. Your demographic information (gender, date of birth, etc.) will be used for several security purposes, to ensure you are who you say you are and in fact you are paying with your credit cards and not someone using your stolen credit cards.

Refer-A-Friend

If you choose to use our referral service to tell a friend about our site, we will ask you for your friend's name and email address. We will automatically send your friend a one-time email inviting him or her to visit the site. "FREE-SOURCE.NET" does not store this information and uses it for the sole purpose of sending this one-time email.

Our Use of Log Files
