No Promotion or Investor Relations Activities by Urban Survival Urban Survival.com, Peoplenomics and Related Sites

George Ure, and his web sites, are not principals, do not play promotional roles, do not perform investor relations activities, and do not accept payment of any kind from public companies, directly or indirectly, in connection with these functions.

Promotional role is defined as communicating with investment dealers, advisors, and shareholders – both current and prospective- to increase awareness of and interest in a particular publicly traded company.

Investor relations is defined as various services rendered, from the preparation of corporate brochures to shareholder communications, to specific campaigns designed to increase trading activity in the shares of a particular publicly traded company.

We do accept adverting in order to fund our websites, however all advertising is clearly labeled except for those incidental to product reviews which may include links to sources.

If there is something about all this rigamarole that’s not clear, send me a note.
