Further, EveryFreeGift.com may disclose personal information to other companies in connection with marketing efforts including but not limited to direct marketing, which may have no relationship to EveryFreeGift.com.

why even bother with a privacy policy if you are going to put in this line:

So basically, they say they will use your e-mail address (and any other personal info) in any way they see fit. The real question is why people would fall for that crap.
