The Energy Daily Network Privacy Policy and Terms & Conditions

Information That We Collect

We respect your right to privacy and your right to know how information you entrust us with will be used. The Energy Daily Network web site collects personal information about our users in two ways: registration for contests and from our use of "cookie" technology as you access various services. (Cookies are text files placed in your browser by us so that we can maintain your preferences.) Unless you have filled out a form on our site cookies will not reveal to us any of your personal information. That information may be linked to your cookies after you fill out a form.

We may, in the future, use this information to provide site enhancements like recognition of you by name and presenting you with information relevant to you as indicated by your use of the site. Should any change be made in our privacy policy in the future, it will be detailed fully on this page.

How We Use Information

The data we collect is used in the aggregate to give us demographic information about the entire The Energy Daily Network web site audience. This is used to improve your overall experience of the site and more effective service. If you “opt in” on a form within the sites, the email address that you provide allows us to notify you about new features of the site or products and services of The Energy Daily Network web site, its affiliates and/or third parties that we believe may be of interest to you. In the instance that you’ve entered special promotions or contests, your email address or phone number would be used to notify you if you’ve won. We also share aggregate information — not individual data — with our advertisers to help them better understand our services and to monitor the reach of their advertising on the service.

In the event that promotion or contest is sponsored by one or several companies, these entities may be given some or all of the information that you have provided in the entry form. We are not able to control their use of this information.

We will disclose information in our databases when required to do so by law, for example, in response to a court order or a subpoena. We also may disclose such information in response to a law enforcement agency's request.

Third-party Privacy Policies

The Energy Daily Network web sites provide links to third parties that have their own privacy policies. Also be aware that some of the banner advertising on our site may contain cookies that are controlled by the advertiser. Your personal information does not link to the cookie data that is used most often to track ad efficacy.

How We Secure Information

The Energy Daily Network web site uses reasonable precautions to keep the personal information disclosed to us secure and to disclose such information only to third parties we believe to be responsible. However, we are not responsible for any breach of security or for any actions of any third parties that receive the information.

To help manage our premium paid email newsletters, we may use tracking software to ensure accurate electronic delivery and copyright compliance. This software collects and forwards to us certain technical information from any computer that opens the email newsletters.  The software also collects and reports information regarding the usage of the newsletter by the receiving computer.  For more information about our third-party software, please see www.readnotify.com.  We do not use this information for any marketing purpose.
