Nicalis may also use your Personal Information to send you certain materials and information by e-mail and/or other methods, including marketing materials, information about our business, including our goods and services and those of our business partners, and newsletters or other information or materials, unless you notify Nicalis that you do not wish to receive such materials. Nicalis may also use your Personal Information for free giveaways, such as the random selection of a user or users of the Site to receive free items like T-shirts, video games or posters. By using the Site, you will automatically be eligible to be randomly selected to receive such items, unless you notify Nicalis that you do not wish to be eligible.

Nonetheless, except as separately permitted by other provisions of this Privacy Policy, these companies are allowed to gather, receive and/or use your Personal Information only for the purposes described herein or as required by law.
Nicalis may take your Personal Information and modify it so that it becomes non-personally identifiable, either by combining it with information about other individuals (i.e., aggregating your information with information about other individuals) and/or by removing the personally identifiable elements (e.g., your name) from such information. Given the non-personally identifiable nature of the resulting information, Nicalis may use this information in any manner, including selling and/or sharing this information with third parties and nothing in this Privacy Policy restricts Nicalis from doing so.
