This privacy policy ("Policy") discloses the data collection and use practices of TheDegreePath ("TheDegreePath") in connection with the TheDegreePath Web site (the "Web Site") and all associated TheDegreePath products and services (the "TheDegreePath Services").
TheDegreePath will not directly inform you of any changes to the privacy policy which involve use of your personal information. If at anytime you are dissatisfied with our service to you or are in disagreement with our terms and conditions or privacy policy, you reserve the option to Opt-out of our website and future communication.

What Information We Collect/How We Use It
We store and use the information you give us in accordance with the terms of this Policy. Our registration form (or registration information you provide our marketing partners if you joined TheDegreePath though one of our partners) requests that you provide certain contact and profile information. That information includes but may not be limited to: name, address, email address, phone number, gender and birth date. Additional information may include, but not be limited to, health and lifestyle information about you and your family such as marital status and household information (spouse, children, pets, etc.), ethnicity, education, income, occupation, purchasing habits, participation in research surveys and clinical trials.
In addition, we might receive information about you from outside sources and add it to your TheDegreePath membership information. We do this to improve personalization of our services (for example, providing better newsletter content, advertising or special offers that we think will interest you).
We also may collect information such as the identification of the server your computer is logged onto and whether you opened a TheDegreePath e-mail delivered to you. We also may compare our customer list to lists received from other companies, in an effort to avoid sending identical messages to our members. You can add and modify the information you have provided by sending an e-mail to info@dedicatedmedia.com with your requested changes.
We use all this information in five ways:
Agents
We employ other companies and individuals to perform certain functions on our behalf. These companies and individuals may include but are not limited to marketing and advertising companies and their subsidiaries and affiliates. Examples include sending direct and electronic mail, removing duplicate information from customer lists, analyzing data, and providing marketing analysis. These agents have access to member personal information as needed to perform their functions for TheDegreePath.
