Roughstock adheres to a Privacy Policy, which is as follows: There is intense debate surrounding the issues of privacy and freedom of speech on the Internet. We believe that all users should have their privacy respected and have the ability to freely express themselves anywhere in accordance with the Roughstock Terms of Service below.

Our fundamental policies, all of which are subject to each individual site's Terms of Service, are as follows:

  • Your e-mail address will not be shared with any third party for any purposes without your explicit consent.

In addition, we share web site usage information about visitors to our sites with these companies for the purpose of managing and targeting advertisements and for market research analysis on our site and other sites.

No community is perfect but every thriving community should be full of voices: so please contribute, debate, express yourself, and if there is anything that we can do to make your experience better--don't hesitate to speak up about that too!

Subscribers and members should be aware that when they VOLUNTARILY disclose personal information (e.g., user name, e-mail address) on the bulletin boards, chat areas, or member pages that information can be collected and used by others and may result in unsolicited messages from other posters or parties.
