Where registration is not required, the need to collect personally identifiable information may be limited, but website owners may still want to collect such information for statistical analysis and other purposes. It may be necessary to broaden the scope of the purpose for such collection, e.g. by stating that such collection will enable the website owner to better serve the users of the website, to make such information collection seem reasonable under the circumstances.

During the account registration process, you will be asked to submit personal information, including your proper name and at least one active e-mail address. At this time, you will also have the opportunity to subscribe to any and all website newsletters regarding Care to Trade's product news, services and special offers or events.
