Outside of our customers who use our surveys to elicit responses from users, Infotap™ does not, at any time, share your personal information with a third party with whom we know, or have reason to believe, uses your personal information to undertake independent direct marketing.  If you are providing answers to a survey from one of our customers, our customer’s privacy policy may have different terms than our policy.
