1. Collection of Information.
1.1 Survey Information.
www.FreeDriverDetective.com collects
information from individuals by
various methods, including, but
not limited to, when an
individual voluntarily completes
an www.FreeDriverDetective.com survey,
order form, or a registration
page either online or offline,
or by means of online or offline
surveys, order forms, or

third parties (collectively, a

"online" means using the
Internet, including the Website,
and related technologies, and
"offline" means by methods other
than online, including in
person, in the postal mail,
using telephones and cell
phones, and other similar
means.) In the Surveys,

other information as may be
requested from time to time
(together, "Survey

may also collect information
concerning an individual from
another source and use that
information in combination with
information provided from this
Web Site. Completing the Surveys
is completely voluntary, and
individuals are under no
obligation to provide Survey
Information to www.FreeDriverDetective.com
or Third Party, but an
individual may receive
incentives from www.FreeDriverDetective.com
or a Third Party in exchange for
providing Survey Information to
www.FreeDriverDetective.com.
1.2 Third Party List
Information.
www.FreeDriverDetective.com collects
information from individuals
when an individual provides
information to a Third Party and
www.FreeDriverDetective.com subsequently
purchases, licenses, or
otherwise acquires the
information from the Third Party
(the "Seller"). Such purchased
information may include, but is
not limited to, an individual's
name, email address, street
address, zip code, telephone

messaging details (e.g. date,
time and content of the SMS
message), birth date, gender,
salary range, education and
marital status, occupation,
industry of employment, personal
and online interests, and such
other information as the
individual may have provided to
the Seller (together, "Third
Party List Information"). When
acquiring Third Party List
Information, www.FreeDriverDetective.com
seeks assurances from the Seller
that the Seller has a right to
transfer the Third Party List
Information to www.FreeDriverDetective.com
and that the Seller has a right
to provide offers from
advertisers to the individuals
whose personal information is
included on the Seller's list.
1.3 Other Information.
Other occasions when

1.4 Cookies, Web Beacons, and
Other Info Collected Using
Technology.
www.FreeDriverDetective.com currently uses
cookie and web beacon technology
to associate certain
Internet-related information
about an individual with
information about the individual
in our database. Additionally,
www.FreeDriverDetective.com may use other
new and evolving sources of
information in the future
(together, "Technology
Information").
(a) Cookies. A cookie is a small
amount of data stored on the
hard drive of the individual's
computer that allows
www.FreeDriverDetective.com to identify the
individual with his or her
corresponding data that resides
in www.FreeDriverDetective.com's database.
You may read more about cookies
at http://cookiecentral.com.
Individuals who use the Website
need to accept cookies in order
to use all of the features and
functionality of the Website.
(b) Web Beacons. A web beacon is
programming code that can be
used to display an image on a
web page (by using an
programming function�see http://truste.org
for more information), but can
also be used to transfer an
individual's unique user
identification (often in the
form of a cookie) to a database
and associate the individual
with previously acquired
information about an individual
in a database. This allows
www.FreeDriverDetective.com to track
certain web sites an individual
visits online. Web beacons are
used to determine products or
services an individual may be
interested in, and to track
online behavioral habits for
marketing purposes. For example,
www.FreeDriverDetective.com might place,
with the consent of a Third
Party website, a web beacon on
the Third Party's website where
baseball products are sold. When
Joe, an individual listed in
www.FreeDriverDetective.com's database,
visits the fishing website,
www.FreeDriverDetective.com receives notice
by means of the web beacon that
Joe visited the baseball site,
and www.FreeDriverDetective.com would then
update Joe's profile with the
information that Joe is
interested in baseball.
www.FreeDriverDetective.com may thereafter
present offers of baseball
related products and services to
Joe. In addition to using web
beacons on web pages,
www.FreeDriverDetective.com also uses web
beacons in email messages sent
to individuals listed in
www.FreeDriverDetective.com's database.
(c) New Technology. The use of
technology on the Internet,
including cookies and web
beacons, is rapidly evolving, as
is www.FreeDriverDetective.com's use of new
and evolving technology. As a
result, www.FreeDriverDetective.com
strongly encourages individuals
to revisit this policy for any
updates regarding its use of
technology.
