This privacy statement discloses what information we gather and how we use it.

What Information Do We Collect? Triangle Associates gathers two types of information about users:

1.) Voluntary Registration and User Surveys
Information that users provide through optional, voluntary submissions. Users many be given the opportunity to provide additional information about themselves and preferences to receive our electronic newsletters, to “email a friend”, and from participation in surveys.

2.) Automatic Information
Information collected from our web server is anonymous. Triangle Associates gathers through aggregated tracking information derived mainly by tallying page views throughout our sites. This information allows us to better tailor our content to readers' needs and to help our advertisers and sponsors better understand the demographics of our audience. This helps us to improve the quality of your online experience by recognizing and delivering more of the products and services you perfer. Such aggregated demographic data is essential to keeping our service free to users. Under no circumstances does Triangle Associates divulge any information about an individual user to a third party.

1. Electronic newsletters (Dispatches)
We will offer a free electronic newsletter to users. Triangle Associates gathers the email addresses of users who voluntarily subscribe. Users may remove themselves from this mailing list by following the link provided in every newsletter that points users to the subscription management page. Users can also subscribe to the newsletters at the time of registration.

2. "E-mail to a friend" Service
Our site users can choose to electronically forward a link, page, or document to someone else by clicking "e-mail to a friend". The user must provide their email address, as well as that of the recipient. This information is used only in the case of transmission errors and, of course, to let the recipient know who sent the email. The information is not used for any other purpose.

Triangle Associates may occasionally conduct user surveys to better target our content to our audience. We sometimes share the aggregated demographic information in these surveys with our sponsors, advertisers and partners. We never share any of this information about specific individuals with any third party.

4. Usage tracking:
Triangle Associates tracks user traffic patterns throughout all of our sites. However, we do not correlate this information with data about individual users. Triangle Associates does break down overall usage statistics according to a user's domain name, browser type, and MIME type by reading this information from the browser string (information contained in every user's browser). We do not track what individual users read, but rather how well each page performs overall. This helps us to continue to build a better service for you. Cookies: We may place a text file called a "cookie" in the browser files of your computer.

USE OF INFORMATION
Triangle Associates uses any information voluntarily given by our users to enhance their experience in our network of sites, whether to provide interactive or personalized elements on the sites or to better prepare future content based on the interests of our users. As stated above, we use information that users voluntarily provide in order to send out electronic newsletters and to enable users to participate in surveys. We send out newsletters to subscribers (depending on the newsletter), and occasionally send out special editions when we think subscribers might be particularly interested in something we are doing. Triangle Associates never shares newsletter mailing lists with any third parties, including advertisers, sponsors or partners. We may use tracking information to determine which areas of our sites users like and don't like based on traffic to those areas. We do not track what individual users read, but rather how well each page performs overall. This helps us continue to build a better service for you. We track search terms entered in Search function as one of many measures of what interests our users. But we don't track which terms a particular user enters. Triangle Associates creates aggregate reports on user demographics and traffic patterns for advertisers, sponsors and partners. This allows our advertisers to advertise more effectively, and allows our users to receive advertisements that are pertinent to their needs. Because we don't track the usage patterns of individual users, an advertiser or sponsor will never know that a specific user clicked their ad. We will not disclose any information about any individual user except to comply with applicable law or valid legal process or to protect the personal safety of our users or the public.
