The information collection, use, and dissemination practices of Datachamps LLC. (the "Company")
are discussed in this policy. This policy applies to Company's information collection (a) on Company's
websites (EFinancialFreedom.com) (b) on various third party websites, and (c) to Company's other information
collection, including the purchase of customer lists from third parties.
1. Collection of Information.
1.1 Survey Information. The Company collects information from individuals when an individual voluntarily
completes a Company survey, order form, or a registration page either online or offline, or by means
of online or offline surveys, order forms, or registration pages operated by third parties (collectively,
a "Survey"). (As used herein, "online" means using the Internet, including the Websites,
and related technologies, and "offline" means by methods other than online, including in person,
in the postal mail, using telephones and cell phones, and other similar means.) In the Surveys, the
Company or a third party (a "Third Party") may ask an individual to provide various information
to the Company, which may include his or her name, email address, street address, zip code, telephone
numbers (including cell phone numbers and carriers), birth date, gender, salary range, education and
marital status, occupation, employment information, personal and online interests, and such other information
as may requested from time to time (together, "Survey Information"). Company or third party
may also collect information such as what browser you are using and your Internet Protocol ("IP")
address. Completing the Surveys is completely voluntary, and individuals are under no obligation to
provide Survey Information to the Company or Third Party, but an individual may receive incentives from
the Company or a Third Party in exchange for providing Survey Information to the Company.
1.2 Third Party List Information. The Company collects information from individuals when an individual
provides information to a third party, and the Company subsequently purchases, licenses, or otherwise
acquires the information from the third party (the "Seller"). Such purchased information may
include, but is not limited to, an individual's name, email address, street address, zip code, telephone
numbers (including cell phone numbers and carriers), birth date, gender, salary range, education and
marital status, occupation, industry of employment, personal and online interests, and such other information
as the individual may have provided to the Seller (together, "Third Party List Information").
When acquiring Third Party List Information, the Company seeks assurances from the Seller that the Seller
has a right to transfer the Third Party List Information to the Company and that the Seller has a right
to provide offers from advertisers to the individuals whose personal information is included on the
Seller's list.
1.3 Other Information. Other occasions when the Company obtains information from individuals include
(1) when an individual is making a claim for a prize or seeking to redeem an incentive offered by the
Company or by a third party, (2) when an individual requests assistance through Company's customer service
department, and (3) when an individual voluntarily subscribes to a Company service or newsletter (together,
"Other Information").
1.4 Cookies, Web beacons, and Other Information Collected Using Technology. The Company currently uses
cookie and web beacon technology to associate certain Internet-related information about an individual
with information about the individual in our database. Additionally, the Company may use other new and
evolving sources of information in the future (together, "Technology Information").
(a) Cookies. A cookie is a small amount of data stored on the hard drive of the individual's computer
that allows Company to identify the individual with his or her corresponding data that resides in Company's
database. You may read more about cookies at www.cookiecentral.com. Individuals who use the Websites
need to accept cookies in order to use all of the features and functionality of the Websites.
(b) Web beacons. A web beacon is programming code that can be used to display an image on a web page
(by using an programming function -- see www.www.org for more information), but can also be used to
transfer an individual's unique user identification (often in the form of a cookie) to a database and
associate the individual with previously acquired information about an individual in a database. This
allows Company to track certain web sites an individual visits online. Web beacons are used to determine
products or services an individual may be interested in, and to track online behavioral habits for marketing
purposes. For example, Company might place, with the consent of a third party website, a web beacon
on the third party's website where fishing products are sold. When Joe, an individual listed in Company's
database, visits the fishing website, Company receives notice by means of the web beacon that Joe visited
the fishing site, and Company would then update Joe's profile with the information that Joe is interested
in fishing. Company may thereafter present offers of fishing related products and services to Joe. In
addition to using web beacons on web pages, Company also uses web beacons in email messages sent to
individuals listed in Company's database. If you wish more information about web beacons, you may wish
to visit http://www.webopedia.com/TERM/W/Web_beacon.html
(c) New Technology. The use of technology on the Internet, including cookies and web beacons, is rapidly
evolving, as is Company's use of new and evolving technology. As a result, Company strongly encourages
individuals to revisit this policy for any updates regarding its use of technology.
1.5 Outside Information. The Company may receive information about individuals from third parties or
from other sources of information outside of the Company including information located in public databases
("Outside Information").
1.6 Individual Information. As used herein, Individual Information means Survey Information, Third Party
List Information, Other Information, Technology Information, and Outside Information, and any other
information the Company gathers or receives about individuals.
1.7 No Information Collected from Children. The Company will never knowingly collect any personal information
about children under the age of 13. If the Company obtains actual knowledge that it has collected personal
information about a child under the age of 13, that information will be immediately deleted from our
database. Because it does not collect such information, the Company has no such information to use or
to disclose to third parties. The Company has designed this policy in order to comply with the Children's
Online Privacy Protection Act ("COPPA").
1.8 Credit Card Information. The Company may in certain cases collect credit card numbers and related
information, such as the expiration date of the card ("Credit Card Information") when an individual
places an order from Company. When the Credit Card Information is submitted to Company, such information
is encrypted and is protected with SSL encryption software. The Company will use the Credit Card Information
for purposes processing and completing the purchase transaction, and the Credit Card Information will
be disclosed to third parties only as necessary to complete the purchase transaction.

information how an individual may unsubscribe from that particular list.
2.2(b) Solicited Email. Company only sends email to individuals who have agreed on the Websites to receive
email from Company or to individuals who have agreed on third party websites to receive email from third
parties such as Company. Company does not send unsolicited email messages. As a result, statutes requiring
certain formatting for unsolicited email are not applicable to Company's email messages.
2.3 Targeted Advertising. The Company uses Individual Information to target advertising to an individual.

to show advertising for products and services in which the person has expressed an interest in the Surveys,

Information and Third Party List Information to other categories of Individual Information to make and
improve profiles of individuals, (2) to track a person's online browsing habits on the Internet, (3)
to determine which areas of Company's web sites are most frequently visited. This information helps
the Company to better understand the online habits of individuals so that the Company can target advertising
and promotions to them.
2.6 Profiles of Individuals. The Company uses Individual Information to make a profile of an individual.
A profile can be created by combining Survey Information and Third Party List Information with other
sources of Individual Information such as information obtained from public databases.
2.7 Storage of Individual Information. The Company stores the Individual Information in a database on
Company computers. Our computers have security measures (such as a firewall) in place to protect against

the Company cannot guarantee that its security measures will prevent the Company computers from being
illegally accessed, and the Individual Information on them stolen or altered.
