Section 11i: How do we collect information? When you choose to enter information while on BillboardMe we receive and hold that information. This includes forms you complete, emails you send or any other contact you make with us. For example: your membership profile, your feedback and any other communication with BillboardMe. BillboardMe automatically generates certain types of information when you use BillboardMe. We receive and hold that information. To do this we mostly use “Cookies” as they help us to keep track of where you go and what you like about BillboardMe. Cookies are little bits of information that websites send to your browser. Your computer can then store that on the system you use to access BillboardMe. You can disable cookies via your browser preferences (you'll need to do this yourself as we're not responsible for your browser). Importantly, if you disable cookies you won't be able to log-in to BillboardMe and get the most out of the membership ease of use available when you log in. You don't have to tell us anything. BillboardMe works best when we know a bit about you. Non members do not have access to all features on our website, we will always indicate when this is the case. You can opt out of receiving BillboardMe communications at any time by clicking on the link in your profile at any time or using the "unsubscribe" option. We'll then remove you from the distribution list as quickly as we can.
