Title: TBS Board Privacy
Post by: ULYCYC on January 08 2011, 09:30:42 AM
I suggest all members to log in on TB's.com and scroll to the bottom of the main page. Click on privacy statement and opt out of all the spam/marketing they are attaching to your email account. I just did it and it list's 3 pages of marketers.

You did it from the tbs site? It says you have to visit the vendor sites to opt out:

Good info, thanks for letting us know.

Is this a new policy? Did they change the user agreement without telling the members?

Ah, okay...thanks.

For some reason it won't let me opt out of "Tacoda".

It won't let me opt out of Tacoda or owner IQ. I think it means I don't have an IQ but still own a Tacoda pickup truck.

Did TBS always have the keyword popup thing going on?

Look at this post I made:  http://www.turbobuicks.com/forums/waiting-room/95935-time-sell-er.html#post832356

Does that show up for anyone else?  I don't remember seeing that before on TBS.

This would explain why I've had a recent increase in spam e-mails.
I just found this on the NAI site:

Quote
Dear Consumers, thank you for visiting our site. Please note that most problems relating to the NAI Opt Out can be resolved by reading the following information:
ABOUT THE OPT OUT

The Opt Out can NOT:

    * Stop email SPAM or otherwise remove you from email marketing lists;
    * Stop you from seeing ads altogether;
    * Block cookies from being set on your computer; or
    * Remove personal information about you from any databases.

Doesn't sound like the opt out is good for much of anything, lol.

No need to worry about the spam and cookies if you never go over there.
