2. SUBMISSION AND COLLECTION OF INFORMATION ON WEBSITE SERVICES
User Submitted Information.
Registration Information is the information that users must provide to Company in order to register for a Website Service, for example, your full name, email address, mailing address, credit card information or telephone number.. When we collect Registration Information from you it is because you are voluntarily submitting the information to us in order to participate in activities like sweepstakes, contests, games, surveys, forums, subscription registrations in connection with content or suggestions you submit to us, chats, bulletin boards, or because you want us to furnish you with products, services or information.
Public Information and Posts consists of comments or content that you post to the Website Services and the information about you that accompanies those posts, such as a username or user picture.
