Optional Voluntary Information

We offer the following free services, which require some type of voluntary submission of personal information by users:

  1. Client Interface: We will offer marketing and prospect information to our clients via a secure area of our site. BaxCommercial.com offers clients the opportunity to “opt-in” to this service. Clients may choose not to opt-in or may request in writing to opt-out. Mail opt-out requests to Marketing Department, Michael Baxter & Associates Commercial Real Estate and Property Management, Fountain Court West, Suite #2, Route 611, Tannersville, PA 18372.
  2. Electronic newsletters (Dispatches): We will offer a free electronic newsletter to users. BaxCommercial.com gathers the email address 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 newsletter at the time of registration.
  3. Message Forums: Users of the site’s Message Boards and Forums must register separately for these services (both are free of charge) in order to post messages, although they needn’t register to visit the site. During registration the user is required to supply a username, password and email address.
  4. Email this to a friend Service: Our site users can choose to electronically forward a link, page, or documents to someone else by clicking “Email this to a friend”. The user must provide their email address , as well as that of the 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.
  5. Polling: We may offer interactive polls to users so they can easily share their opinions with other users and see what our audience thinks about important issues. Opinions or other responses to polls are aggregated and are not identifiable to any particular user. BaxCommercial.com may use a system to “tag” users after they have voted, so they can only vote once on a particular question. This tag is not correlated with information about individual users.
  6. Surveys: Michael Baxter & Associates Commercial Real Estate and Property Management 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.

However, we do not correlate this information with data about individual users.

When we 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 not track what individual users read, but rather how well each page performs overall.
