of those people, 35% were registered users above the age of 25." We provide

their advertisements unless you have specifically told us this is
acceptable.
Unless you have opted
out of receiving special offers, emails or other communications from selected
third parties, we also may provide a report to our advertiser which tells them
who responded to a particular offer. For example, we might send you an email,
launch a new window within your internet browser, or send you other
advertisements in electronic form which offer you a discount on a particular
good or service. If you click on that e-mail or advertisement or accept an
offer or discount contained therein, we may provide the advertiser with the
information necessary to provide you with that discount or offer.
- You can always choose
whether or not to disclose personally identifiable information and that choice
will not prevent you from using Winstakes.com. Please note, however, that you
