philnews.com Online Privacy Policy

At philnews.com we understand how important your privacy is to you. Here at philnews.com, we take it a bit more seriously then others. Our Privacy Policy is simple: Any information that philnews.com collects from our customers through business transactions or by other advertised means, is used only internally to maintain customer accounts, track usage and to better help us understand our customers needs and usage patterns so we can provide you with the best service possible.

This protection does not extend to information that is posted in public space (i.e. Bulletin Boards hosted by philnews.com, etc.) or by other "public" means. At this time, philnews.com will not share this information with any other party, but does reserve the right to modify this policy in the future. Occasionally, we will partner with other companies to improve our services or bring you new offerings, at which point our customer information may need to be shared. The commitment you have from philnews.com is that in these situations, we will not partner or make dealings with any company that does not have a privacy policy that closely mirrors our own.

We use third-party advertising companies to serve ads when you visit our website. These companies may use information (not including your name, address, email address, or telephone number) about your visits to this and other websites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services of interest to you.
