• You have the right to control your personal information.
• FeedBlitz never sells, rents or buys email addresses.
• List owners can see the information you give them as part of our services.
• FeedBlitz uses cookies, tracking and logging to make FeedBlitz work and tell list owners about activity on their lists.
• FeedBlitz emails globally, but is a US-based business with a US-based infrastructure.

That’s what all the words below basically mean. It’s consistent with the way we’ve done business over the years. There are links in the policy to third-party sites where you can control how analytics and ad networks we participate in treat you.

So the above is the bite-sized summary. But it’s the words below that count (our lawyers made us say that). If you’re using FeedBlitz, as a visitor, publisher or subscriber, you agree to all of this.

Use of Email Addresses for Subscribers

When you subscribe to a mailing list published using the Services, FeedBlitz shares your email address with the publisher of that mailing list. If you set your profile preferences to be anonymous, FeedBlitz will not share this information with the publisher.

If you subscribe to a feed using the Services, you may elect the option of receiving updates via email, Facebook wall posts (which will be visible to your friends), Tweets (which will be shared with your followers), LinkedIn status updates (which will be displayed to your connections), or other services which may become available and enabled on the Website. You will voluntarily elect the method in which the updates are sent and provide the personal information for the Services to complete the operation. The personal information that you provide for these updates is not shared, other than described in the paragraph above.

Your email address will never otherwise be shared by FeedBlitz with third parties. To prevent spamming, we require all new subscription requests to be confirmed via email (known as confirmed dual opt-in) before they are activated. If you believe your email address was added to a list FeedBlitz powers without your permission or knowledge, you should contact abuse@FeedBlitz.com immediately.

Tracking Pixels

When FeedBlitz emails are sent to Subscribers, the Services embed tracking pixels into the emails to track performance, such as who opened the emails and who clicked on the links within the emails. This information is shared with our Publishers and is used to track performance and to assist in improving our features. The tracking pixels may also track information such as IP address, browser type, or other similar details.

Like almost all Internet servers, logged information may include timestamps, your client IP address (as it appears to the server), and the page(s) you visit. Our detailed server logs will not be shared with any third party. We may however elect to publish aggregate statistics on visitor activity from time to time based on log information (e.g. “we had 1,234 visitors yesterday”). We will never publish any personally identifiable information in these analyses.
