E-Mail Addresses Used on PATSD.org

One technique by bulk mailers is to use "web spiders" to search websites for e-mail addresses. PATSD.org uses a special technique to store and display addresses in a form that is not easy to identify. If you have questions about this technique, please contact the Webmaster.

Our organization changes constantly, and our Privacy Notice and the Terms of Use will change also. Unless stated otherwise, our current Privacy Notice applies to all information that we have about you. We stand behind the promises we make, however, and will never materially change our policies and practices to make them less protective of customer information collected in the past without updating these Terms in advance.
