Be careful with these tools. They like to gather information and sell it to
spammers! They often hide this fact and pretend that they won't. In this
case, their privacy page seems to promise they won't sell your information
or spam you. But read closer! Only their for-pay tool is covered by their
privacy message. Their free tool is administered by a separate company with
a different privacy policy. That other company's privacy policy says they
will spam you! You can opt-out by sending e-mail to a special address. If
you haven't specifically done this, then you are on a list to be spammed "at
your request!"
