PDRbooks.com Privacy Statement
This privacy statement is designed to tell you how PDR Network LLC
(PDR) uses and secures your personal information. This privacy statement
describes the practices of www.PDRbooks.com; other PDR websites and
businesses are controlled by their own privacy statements. Please
review those privacy terms and conditions separately. As described
below, this privacy statement relates solely to the online information
collection and use practices of PDRbooks.com.
Information That We Collect
In general, you may browse online many parts of the PDRbooks.com
without providing any personal information. The information we collect
from website visitors is collected on an aggregate basis as you and
others browse PDRbooks.com, and is not used to identify you in any
way.
If you want to interact with PDRbooks.com, you may register
online by providing us with personal information. Registration is
completely voluntary and free. When you register, we collect contact
information such as name, address, phone and fax numbers, and email
address.
We will tailor the materials we provide you based on the information
in your profile, such as products and services purchased online.
How We Use the Information
In general, we use all of the information we collect in order to:
- respond to your requests for information
- provide you with products and services
- provide customer service
- provide you with additional information that may be of interest,
including marketing and educational materials from us and our partners
If you purchase a product from us (such as a book or newsletter
subscription), you may provide us with a credit card number. This credit
card number will only be used to process your purchase. We will not
disclose credit card numbers to any third party for marketing purposes
under any circumstances.
Unless you tell us not to, we may also provide information about you
to unaffiliated third parties. For example, like most publishers, we
share our subscriber lists with selected business partners so that they
may offer you products and services directly.
We may also share your information with other third parties who
perform services for us, but we forbid these companies from using your
personal information for their own purposes.
Please note that we may disclose any information as required by law,
when necessary for health or safety purposes, or when needed to protect
our legal rights. For example, we may disclose information about you in
response to a subpoena. We may also disclose information about you in
connection with the transfer of assets of our business. Additionally, we
might sell or buy business units. In such transactions, customer
information generally is one of the transferred business assets but
remains subject to the promises made in any pre-existing privacy notice
(unless, of course, the customer consents otherwise).
Your Choices
We use good faith efforts to respect your preferences about our use
of your information. We only want to send you information if you want to
receive it. You may opt-out of emails by using the unsubscribe feature
on the email communication or contacting our customer services
department by email at pdrcustserv@usafill.com or by phone at 1-800-678-5689
and request the desired change.
If you do not want to receive information from other PDR valued
business partners, you may opt out by contacting our customer services
department by email at pdrcustserv@usafill.com or by phone at 1-800-678-5689
and request the desired change.

Privacy Statement Parameters
This privacy statement describes the policies governing
PDRbooks.com. It does not govern the practices at other PDR

Additionally, this statement applies to contact and other personal
information maintained by PDRbooks.com. Personal information
provided to PDR in other ways (such as in offline communications with
those businesses outside of PDRbooks.com) will be covered by this
privacy statement if such personal information is consolidated with

The PDRbooks.com website may provide direct links to various
sponsor and marketing partner sites, where you can apply for products
and services (such as a complimentary subscription to an e-newsletter).

Before disclosing personal information to any other company's website,
you should read the privacy notice associated with that site.
Cookies and Website Information
Like most other commercial websites, we use standard "cookie"
technology and web server logs to collect information about how our
website is used. Cookies are small pieces of data that are stored by
your web browser on your hard drive. The cookies allow our web servers
to recognize the computers used to access our websites. Cookies allow
you to move from page to page on the website, by remembering the

Information gathered through cookies and by our web server logs may
include the date and time of visits, the pages viewed, time spent at our
website, and the websites visited just before and just after our
website. This information is collected on an aggregate basis and is not
associated with your profile.
How We Secure Information Transmissions
Although no systems are completely secure, we have taken reasonable
steps to help prevent the loss, misuse and alteration of the information
under our control. For example, when we ask users to provide financial
information (such as credit card number), or any information during the
registration or profile update process, the data is protected using
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption technology.
Changes to Our Policies
From time to time, we may use customer information for new,
unanticipated uses not previously disclosed in this privacy statement.
If we make a material change to this statement, we will post and
highlight the policy changes, and we will also notify you via email or
take other reasonable steps to give you an opportunity to opt-out of new
data uses.

If you are located outside of the United States, please be aware that
any information you provide to us will be transferred to the United
