New Privacy Options For Tradeloop Connections System

Tradeloop members use our new Connections system to create their own dealer networks within Tradeloop. The system is similar to LinkedIn, but offers more security because it's limited to the Tradeloop community. And now, we've added additional privacy options that let members decide how much information (if any) to share about their networks.

We updated the system at the suggestion of a Tradeloop member who told us that he would rather not share the identities of the members in his network. At Tradeloop, member privacy is one of our main priorities, so we created these new privacy options:

Privacy Settings can be adjusted to allow users to:

1. Make their Tradeloop Connections Networks visible to (or hide from) the public.
2. Make their Tradeloop Connections Network visible to (or hide from) members.
3. Make their Tradeloop Connections Network only visible to other people in their Tradeloop Connections Network.
4. Make their Tradeloop Connections Network totally private

Visit Profile Settings to adjust Network Privacy Settings.

You decide how much information to share about your Network. Just visit your Account Profile to adjust your privacy settings.

We encourage all Tradeloop members to form their own personal networks of trusted dealers and we're offering this incentive: a chance to win an iPad! Make at least 10 approved Connections before October 1, 2010 and you're automatically entered to win.
