  5. Your physical or electronic signature, together with your contact information (address, telephone number and, if available, email address).

Please note that Tupalo may, at its sole discretion, send a copy of such notices to third parties for publication. For example, your letter (with personal information removed) may be forwarded to Chilling Effects (http://www.chillingeffects.org) for publication.
