to either adopt Web-O-Mation's Privacy Policy or provide a link to their own
privacy policy in all emails sent using Web-O-Mation services.
This privacy statement covers the master site
www.web-o-mation.com and its associated sites, and was updated January 13, 2007.
Because our company wants to demonstrate its commitment to our users' privacy,
we disclose our information practices here.

Unsubscribe/Opt-out
All recipients of

Web-O-Mation offers an opt-in/out form on its homepage
for subscription to the Web-O-Mation newsletter. Recipients can opt-in to
receiving the newsletter and can opt-out at any time by returning to the

Client Data
Web-O-Mation supports our

Cookies

HTML and Link Detectors
Web-O-Mation
embeds HTML and link detectors in all email transmissions to allow clients to
assess the effectiveness of their email campaigns. The detectors track
recipients' capability of receiving HTML messages and the aggregate number of
HTML messages opened. The detectors may also track the links that recipients
click on within the email. The detectors do not collect any other information.
Log Files
We use IP addresses to
analyze trends, administer the site, track user's movement, and gather broad
demographic information for aggregate use. IP addresses are not linked to
personally identifiable information.
Online Security
Online security is
enhanced by our use of firewalls protecting all of the Web-O-Mation servers. The
physical servers that we store personally identifiable information on are kept
in a secure facility that only authorized network administrators have access to.
This facility provides security 24 hours a day, 365 days a year and protects our
servers against power outages by using automated backup power systems.
Offline Security
Client information and
data is stored in a secure facility within the Web-O-Mation offices. Only
Web-O-Mation employees who need the information to perform a specific job are
granted access to personally identifiable information. All employees are trained
on our security and privacy practices.
Client Communication
Clients will
receive administrative emails that are related to the operational management of
their account, such as monthly statements and electronic invoices. Web-O-Mation
does not allow 3rd parties to advertise or otherwise correspond with
Web-O-Mation clients. From time-to-time, we may request information from clients
via surveys. Participation in these surveys is completely voluntary. Information

or improving the use and satisfaction of the service. Clients can edit their
communication preferences using the online administration tool
