ActivePDF sold my e-mail address to spammers

Like everyone else I hate spam with a passion. I manage to keep the spam level reasonably low as I use a different email alias for each subscription, forum, etc. When a company sells my address to a spammer I know who the bastards were and I just delete all mails to the spammed alias.

In this case the bastards are ActivePDF as they sold my e-mail address:

Hi.
Your privacy policy (http://www.activepdf.com/privacy/) clearly states:
Once you register, or otherwise provide activePDF with your personal information, activePDF.com will not share that information with third parties without your permission.

How do you explain that I receive SPAM mail to the e-mail address I registered at your site (activepdf@...com)? As you can tell from the e-mail address, I use a unique address for each company I deal with so I can recognize who sells it to spammers for profit.

The latest spam mail was sent from "cross@registerzdi-zannounce.com" with the title "Complimentary Subscription to eWEEK".

Please make sure that my address is removed from the list of the spammers you sold it to.

Thank you,
...
