With recent news of other sites being hacked and contact information being improperly disclosed, we want to assure our users that we take this matter very seriously. Not only have we taken great care to protect all information we store, today we sent a list of our users' names, emails, phone numbers, and street addresses to all advertisers with instructions to remove any matching information from their databases.

Thanks for your continued trust in us,
Curt & Dave

they're not getting hacked other sites were. They did this if a cyber attack would to ever occur. But thanks for the added protection.

Just to be clear, this was an April Fool's joke. We would never provide a list of our users to anyone.

Whew, I have to admit I thought you were serious too, and had immediate concerns about how sending the information out to advertisers was actually maintaining privacy. I almost posted something to that effect but didn't. Laughing
