  1. Information that users provide through optional, voluntary submissions. These are voluntary submissions to receive our electronic newsletters, to participate in our message boards or forums, to email a friend, and from participation in polls and surveys.

  2. Information CORIANDER DESIGNS gathers through aggregated tracking information derived mainly by tallying page views throughout our sites. This information allows us to better tailor our content to users’ needs and to help us better understand the demographics of our audience.

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

  • Electronic newsletters policy (Dispatches): We will offer a free electronic newsletter to users. coriander.design gathers the email addresses 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.
