Confidentiality of Email Addresses

The rosters of the Positive Lists, Inc. mailing lists are confidential within the limitations of applicable local, state, federal and/or international law. Positive Lists, Inc. will not sell or otherwise distribute its lists of subscriber names, usernames, email addresses, or any other related information it may have collected. The purpose of this policy is to try to prevent online solicitors and others from violating the privacy of list subscribers with unwanted email. Subscribers should be aware that individual list members could gather this information for themselves by copying it from messages that are posted to the various lists.

Warning and Disclaimer

Individuals participating in online forums, should be aware that nothing posted to any forum is necessarily "secret". Email messages may make many "hops" in reaching their final destination. They can often be recovered from the equipment used to send them, and in the case of email lists, are received by many individuals. The nature of the medium is such that individuals should always assume that anything posted may be widely disseminated.

Further, the confidentiality of mailing lists is subject to all applicable local, state, federal and/or international laws. Use of Positive Lists, Inc. sponsored email lists for the purpose of planning or executing any unlawful act is prohibited and will result in the immediate removal of the offending member from the lists to which they are subscribed.

Subscribers should not post anything to the lists that they do not want other individuals to know about themselves. This is especially true if the nature of their posting may create the necessity that their identity be released. Doing so can create a very difficult situation for everyone.

Summary

The primary purpose of an electronic mailing list is the sharing of information. Positive Lists, Inc. hopes that this sharing of information will be useful and will provide support to the members of the communities served by its lists.
