 I think it is cool that invisionfree lets you make sites for free. It would be cool if they got a few more stuff that member's can do to there site's. But I'm happy either way, I love the fact that I own my own site, its cool, and fun all at the same time.

 InvisionFree makes forums, not sites(if you meant forums, then disregard this part).

I don't like the pricacy policy (link)

Information Collection and Use by MySpace.com
MySpace.com collects user submitted information such as name, email address, and age to authenticate users and to send notifications to those users relating to the MySpace.com service. MySpace.com also collects other profile data including but not limited to: personal interests, gender, age, education and occupation in order to assist users in finding and communicating with each other.
MySpace.com also logs non-personally-identifiable information including IP address, profile information, aggregate user data, and browser type, from users and visitors to the site. This data is used to manage the website, track usage and improve the website services. This non-personally-identifiable information may be shared with third-parties to provide more relevant services and advertisements to members. User IP addresses are recorded for security and monitoring purposes.

User Profile information including members' pictures and first names are displayed to people in order to facilitate user interaction in the MySpace.com social networking community. Email addresses are used for the purposes of inviting new friends to join MySpace, to add users to members' friends' networks, and to send notifications related to the service. With the exception of inviting friends, adding friends, and notifications, a user's email address is not shared or displayed to people within a user's personal network. Users within a personal network communicate on MySpace.com with each other through the MySpace.com service, without disclosing their email addresses. Users' full names are never directly revealed to other members. To facilitate searching and finding friends and acquaintances on the service, MySpace.com allows users to search for other members using first and last name, email address, and schools and/or companies where users may have attended or worked.

We may also use a user's email address to send updates, a newsletter or news regarding the service. Users may choose not to receive email of this type by changing their "notification" setting to "Do not send me notification emails" in the user "Account Settings".
From time to time, MySpace.com or a partner, may sponsor a promotion, sweepstake or contest on myspace.com. Users may be asked to provide personal information including name, email address or home address or to answer questions in order to participate. We may transfer personal information to certain ad partners that you have explicitly requested to receive information from.[/color] It will be clear at the point of collection who is collecting the personal information and whose privacy statement will apply.

Invitations and Other Communications to Non-members
MySpace members can invite friends to join the service by sending invitation emails via our automated invitation system. MySpace.com stores the email addresses that members provide so that the respondents may be added to the friend's list of the member sending the invitations, and also to send reminders of the invitations. MySpace.com does not sell these email addresses or use them to send any other communication besides invitations, invitation reminders (up to three (3) per email address). Recipients of invitations from MySpace.com may contact MySpace.com to request the removal of their information from our database.

MySpace members may also store email addresses of people they know in their internal MySpace address book and may also choose to send invitations and other communications to those addresses.
You may prevent MySpace.com email invitations and other messages from being sent to any email address you control by sending a single email with the subject "BLOCK" to privacy@myspace.com Please note that the email must come from the account you wish to block.

 Yes but that is for Contests only. You don't have to participate. I've been on Myspace, my band is on Myspace, and pratically all my friends are. We've been on for awhile.

You don't have to enter all the info. And you can enter fake info otherwise.

That screams scam to me. :/ Isn't it a violation of the Data Protection Act to distribute information without concent? Although...I guess if you have forewarning then it's your own fault if you get your butt spammed. Still. Seems like one big scam/spam fest.

Maybe since the title Mentions "MySpace." No reference to IF, but OK. :/

Also Jay no spam, I've have MySpace for long time now and don't recieve a single E-Mail. And all they ask for is the Do you Agree To the Terms and Services, yes or no.

get a spam account, find a free web based thing like gmail if you have an invite you ca send yourself. Then use that account and forget about the account.
