The Powells.com Opt-In Policy

If you'd like to receive Powell's newsletter (or any other Powells.com mailing), please join our list of informed subscribers. If you decide to order from Powells.com but would prefer not to receive our newsletter, you will receive only email directly related to your orders (confirmation and receipt, etc.).

This is what is known as an opt-in policy concerning commercial email. More common, unfortunately, is the opt-out policy, where email is sent unsolicited to customers, who are then forced to respond saying they don't want it (they must opt out of the situation).

We hope that the opt-in method will become the norm rather than the exception for commercial interests on the internet.

Personal information submitted to Powells.com (including, but not limited to, email addresses) will not be shared, sold, or disclosed to third parties in any form, for any purposes, at any time without the prior consent of subscribers.
