Opticsplanet.com is selling your email info (and maybe more)

AGN friends -

Opticsplanet.com is selling your information to “partners”. At a minimum, your contact information - and likely your spending habits to other companies.

This will continue until complaints amass, and it costs them customers. I have put them on notice that my information is not for sale, and that any further abuse will cost them a lifetime of my business.

How do I know?

I use a unique email address for every account I create so I can track this type of harassment. The email address I have registered with opticsplanet has been shared and I’m now receiving spam from other vendors.

Questions? Hit me up!

Regards to you all,
Mark
 
And who...isn't ?

Hell, ask you "bank". You may be surprised !!!
Do you use Google ? Yes again !

Mike, I’ve been aware for two decades now this is a practice of many companies.

I choose not to do business with any of them.

Some folks are not aware, hence my post.

Sorry if I offended you. 🙏

To answer your question, I do not use Google. I use a self-hosted template that shares zero information with Google when I search.
 
I think everybody is selling your private information, there is no really any way around it, unfortunately. I mean you can, but ultimately you are tracked in every step when you go online. We are the product for sale nowadays, sigh. Most likely there is something in terms and conditions on OpticsPlanet when you sign up for a new account that allows them to do it legally.
 
They claim is isn’t in their T&C’s and that they do not sell your information. They’re liars:
