You billing information is the most sensitive and valuable data that we must collect in order to do business. With every responsibility granted such as control of your website or your credit card information, we are given power to do the work required. No one here has any desire for more information or responsibility than is really necessary for the task at hand.
I can easily fetch some boiler-plate privacy spiel to insert here, I even may below, however what I want to convey is how delicate we hold all such power and data. In our history no breach of any user information has ever occurred, nor any misuse of credit card information. The nature of this work can be extremely delicate with heavy responsibility caring for your website and online persona. Just as you cannot afford a smear on your reputation, neither can we. We have all just invested too much, you and I. Besides, by the nature of our work it is clear we are both here to support the public in discovering the small business alternatives to Motel 6, Walmart and McDonalds.
How you act on this website is also valuable. It could, conceivably, be valuable to someone else. But it is really only valuable to our efforts to evolve to suit the needs of our viewers. If no one spends any time on a certain page, then we need to rewrite it etc. All of the data collected through user monitoring, has no connection to you as an individual with a name. It is all just about amounts of visitors, and how long they stay and so on. Your name never gets involved.
Honestly we just do not deal with anything near enough quantity to compete with the phone book. Kidding aside, we first believe in respecting everyone, secondly we don't believe there is a market for any user contact data we might gather.
Our bottom line is that everyone here lives with a high level of respect for all beings. When we all pull together... we get there together.
