Information BFP gathers and tracks

BFP gathers many pieces of information for use in fulfilling user requests. This information includes, but is not limited to name, email address, phone number, postal address, billing address, IP address, time and date login information, and credit card information for users who elect to pay for subscriptions using a credit card.

Registration Pages & Advertising

BFP collects User information at the time of registration through a BFP web site. This information is collected by BFP and stored on our secure web server. Information including credit card information is held strictly confidential by BFP.

BFP often offers selected offers from our partners as part of the registration process for certain sites, services, and products. These offers are designed to assist Users by providing them with valuable information, products, and services from partners who we believe will complement a Users interests. BFP in no way endorses the products or services of these advertisers. When a User selects to receive one of our partner's offers, they are agreeing to receive information from that advertiser. As part of this advertising program, BFP will provide the advertiser with the required information required to fulfill the Users request. This includes, but is not limited to name, postal address, email address, and phone number. Under no circumstance will BFP provide an advertiser with any credit card information from our Users.

Marketing Messages From Third Party Sponsors

BFP offers both a free and a paid subscription e-mail and print newsletters.

Subscription requires Users to provide us with an e-mail address and other information including name, postal address, and phone number. Users may unsubscribe to any of our electronic newsletters at any time by following the instructions contained at the end of every newsletter. Paid subscription newsletters require a membership cancellation request, by canceling through the My Account area of our web site, an e-mail notification, a written request, or a phone call. We operate in compliance with CAN-SPAM legislation, and maintain a "Do Not Mail" list of e-mail addresses which will not receive future correspondence from BFP. Instructions for adding an e-mail address to this "Do Not Mail" list are specified within e-mail correspondence from BFP (with the exception of paid subscription newsletter issues).

E-mail addresses provided to BFP are kept on a secure server. BFP does not share e-mail address with other firms. BFP does however make available both e-mail and postal information to selected advertisers. E-mail advertisers who wish to advertise to BFP's members are required to comply with CAN-SPAM legislation, and provide Users with an easy process of removing from future offers, as well as provide a "Do Not Mail" option for members who do not wish to receive any further communication from a specific advertiser. Users agree to receive offers directly from BFP as well as sponsorship messages from our partners. Users can elect to discontinue receiving third party advertisements from BFP, while continuing to receive free newsletter content. BFP will never sell email addresses, postal information or otherwise transfer to third parties the email addresses of our subscribers. BFP will directly send third party advertisements to Users.

BFP does maintain a postal mailing list that is made available to approved advertisers who are offering financial-related products to our subscribers. Users agree to receive correspondence by way of postal mail from select advertisers.

BFP does not control the practices of our advertisers. If you have questions about how one of our advertisers uses information about you when you click their ad and go to their content, please contact them directly.

Delete/deactivate policy

Users may unsubscribe to any of our electronic newsletters at any time by following the instructions contained at the end of every newsletter, or through our web site. This includes being permanently removed from our list of active subscribers, as well as being placed on a "Do Not Mail" list to ensure that you do not receive further communications from BFP.

We understand the serious concerns regarding email advertising. As a result, we created a separate Email Policy to demonstrate our firm commitment to the privacy of our Users and desire to send email communication only to those Users who wish to receive communications from BFP.
