Dear Sir/Madam,



Thank you for taking time to let us know about your unfortunate experience.


Please accept our apologies for your discomfort due to receiving unexpected


newsletter from Trade Korea. We also regret to hear from you that some of our members received their


newsletter.




Trade Korea is a trade promotion service run by KITA, Korea International Trade


Association. EC21 had been spun off from the organization, and has kept tight cooperation with them


for a long time especially in matchmaking foreign businesses who want to find their business


opportunities with Korean companies.



To revitalize B2B trade and customers needs, we used to share some of our members'


leads in various product categories for restricted use. It was only intended to promote our


members' trade leads to their potential business partners.



Receiving unexpected newsletter from TradeKorea appeared due to a technical error in


the process of sorting the database. We put all our efforts to recover the error thus now we can


promise it will not happen again. Please be advised that we do not share all members¡¯ database


with TradeKorea. Besides we definitely do not have any relationship with Korea yellow


page and not share any information with them at all.



If you're kindly advised our situation we've mentioned above, we ask you to modify


or delete your post on alibaba.com to avoid misleading information to other readers.





According to your request, we've closed your account. 


Once again, we're sorry for the inconvenience caused to you and we'd like to


thanks for your opinion with regard to customers consent. From now on, our development team has


decided to take your advice and is going to develop complementary action. 


We wish you every success in your business.




Sincerely,



EC21 Customer Services

Emily,



This goes to show that you cannot expect to get something for nothing.


You don't pay for the enlistment in the EC21, and the company did not agree with you on the protection of your data privacy.


KoreaTrade and TradeKorea is legit company, and what is there to beware of these sites?


Other B2B also do the same, selling your data to would be buyers. Credit Card holders who have high credit limits are often targets of these marketing vendors. We received many of such calls from these tele-marketing staffs, and distinctive from the Credit Card company.  Don't think your data in Alibaba is not sourced by these investment companies!

Hi Kulcha 

  I wonder what makes you upset  with these website.

  They just offer your trading lead to renowned genuine websites for free.

 KITA is not a private company, it is under control of Korean government.

 They are helping to match exact partner for business without any charge.

 Regards

Bryan Kang
