What happens when I leave urbandispatch.com to visit an Urban Dispatch linked web site?

Parts of urbandispatch.com, such as Urban Dispatch Global Trade Manager© and PIPELINE©, consist of products and services hosted by subsidiary businesses. When you leave www.urbandispatch.com to visit one of these sites, the only information transferred to the third-party is the fact that you came from urbandispatch.com (the referring address). This practice allows the third-party to monitor its own web site traffic, but does not provide them with any information about you. Urban Dispatch is not responsible or liable for the independent privacy policies of our subsidiary sites. You should consult the privacy policies at those sites to determine how your information may be used.
