If you read Privacy Policy statements before installing a particular program on your operating Windows system, you may find Coupon Companion Ads highly questionable. The developers of the program state that your private information could be retrieved:

We receive and store any information you enter on the Site or give us in any other way. You provide most such information when you use the Site or the Plugin Service. For instance, if you register for an account with us, we may collect your name, email address, country of origin, and, if you choose, your nickname, telephone number, website, company, and title.
