But companies gather so much information about us nowadays that I didn't give too much attetion to it.
Each time we take a survey we give our information away, There is always a "policy privacy terms" there. In my opinion, they just gather general information without individualizing the person.
My way of dealing with privacy issues is controlling my input of personal information.

Your information is already being shared all over the internet. Just the fact you use tasks, offers and surveys, your data is already being shared and monetized, how do you think those networks exist, they do not just make money on survey completes. As far as ClixSense, I trust the site and owner. It would not be any different if you used any other GPT site or crowd sourcing site. In fact by using social media, facebook, e-mail, anything online, your data is being collected, used and shared, for the most part there is nothing to fear, most of the sites collect aggregated data, but sites where you expose your information like your legal name, address, date of birth, that's the problem, but there again some GPT sites require this information to protect against fraud, though I have never provided real DOB info to e-mail and social media, just different by subtle digits, nothing big, people who put their whole life story online and on social media should not complain about privacy, there is no privacy online.

As far as the transition clause, it does say IN THE EVENT, it does not specifically state there is a transition, but somehow I wonder if all of this and the timing is related to the sudden and abrupt rate drops across the offers and surveys, it would be nice to have some answers from CS, as these drops will have a huge impact on earnings, particularly for those who are more active and earn more, it's all about volume, even subtle drops can translate to 2-3 figures less monthly.

So I accepted, I mean I already get disturbed by telemarketers on a regular basis and get spam by e-mail, none of which is coming from this site I am sure, so no big deal here, privacy is a myth, and as long as you are using the internet, and worse, using e-mail, social media, free services online, that notion of privacy goes out the window. Any company can write they will not disclose your info or keep it confidential, then 5 years later you hear about company x was hacked and millions of account were stolen....... Banks, credit cards, government agencies, millions of private, confidential information were stolen, so yeah privacy my arse, soon we will have to use microchip implanted in our skin, refer to the mark of the beast, revelations

Does this mean if you go through a sale or merger, etc. that you will not inform members BEFOREHAND?
Business Transitions
In the event ClixSense goes through a business transition, such as a merger, consolidation, restructuring, acquisition by another company, sale or assignment of rights or assets or a portion thereof, or other company change, we may transfer users’ information, including Personal Information, and other collected business data in connection with that business transition (e.g., to a subsequent owner, co-owner, or operator of ClixSense and Features, or any affiliates and trusted agents, service providers, or partners of the foregoing), including during the course of any due diligence process.

Hello Susan, no it means if we go through a sale, merger, asset buyout etc. that your information can be transferred to a new company. And, in the event this happens you would have the option to remove your data from this new company if you wish. Because of the recent GDPR regulations in Europe we had to completely rewrite our privacy and information security policies to cover all aspects of business operation. This includes the sale of the company, sale of assets, going out of business and the sharing of your personal information. Even though the US does not have strict privacy laws like Europe (yet), we expect this to happen within the next year and we believe we will be in compliance with the new regulations without having to have these policies rewritten again.

This update came from our attorneys as they said we missed this statement on the original update back in May of 2018.

Sorry for the long reply, I just wanted you to understand what this all meant.

Thanks
Jim Grago
