Very true, but all you are paying is a little of your time - no cash
involved!
We have given thousands of dollars worth of prizes to some of our lucky
visitors this year and all they did was fill in an entry form and we don't
even ask for addresses or phone numbers. Our privacy policy guarantees that
we won't pass on anyone's email address to a third party. Naturally, we do
need an email address to notify winners! In nearly four years since DPNow
started, we have never breached our privacy policy.
The primary benefit of the competition to us is to attract you to our site
so you can read our articles and maybe join our discussion forum. Of course,
we have advertising and getting visitors to our site is important for that,
but unlike a newsstand magazine, we don't charge our visitors to obtain our
content.
The prize donor, in this case, Epson, gets to publicise product. But we do
not get paid to run these competitions each month.
And of course, you can pass up the invitation and we won't mind.
Remember, some sites actually charge you to enter their competitions.
