For each visitor to the Site, our servers automatically recognize only the visitor’s domain name, but not the e-mail address (unless requested and supplied by the visitor as a part of registration in connection with a program offered or made available on the Site).
You must register to become a member of the Site in order to qualify to receive the products and services available through the Site. In order to register, you must supply accurate and up to date personal information as indicated on the registration form (for example: full name, street address, telephone number and e-mail address) (the “Registration Information”). Certain information, such as your e-mail address, is collected, among other purposes as set forth in this Privacy Policy, in order to verify your identity in the future within our database.
We may also collect other information such as your IP address, browser type, domain names, access times and referring third party website addresses. This information is used for the operation of our Site, to maintain the quality of our offerings, and to provide general aggregate statistics regarding the use of the Site. Such information is not personally identifiable. Geographic, demographic, and category preference information across member profiles may be summarized for merchants advertising on the Site. This helps prospective sponsors understand the viewership they will reach.
In addition, we may receive personal information about you from outside sources and add it to your existing Registration Information on file at the Site. We do this to improve personalization of our services (for example, providing better newsletter content, advertising and/or special offers that we think may be of interest you).
We also collect information such as the identification of the server that your computer is logged onto and whether you opened an e-mail message delivered to you from the Site. We also may compare our member list to various lists received from other third party companies, in an effort to avoid sending identical or similar e-mail messages to our members.
In addition to the information collected by us and registration information submitted by you, we may employ both first-party and third-party cookies. A cookie is a piece of data stored on your hard drive containing activity-based information about you, and it is designed to facilitate the receipt of targeted and relevant advertisements. The cookie is not associated with your personally identifiable information.
Depending on the settings in your browser, you may have the option to deny the session cookie; however, doing so may negatively impact upon the performance of the Site or restrict us in better serving your needs and interests. The "help" portion of the toolbar on most browsers will tell you how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, or how to disable cookies altogether. We occasionally use cookies to anonymously track and target the interests of our members to further enhance the experience on our Site or for advertising tracking purposes.
In addition to cookies, the Site pages and/or e-mails may contain electronic images known as “pixel tags” (also knows as clear gifs) to track the pages that visitors and/or members visit at the Site for purposes of formatting future campaigns and upgrading visitor information used in reporting statistics. The Site may also contain pixel tags placed there by third parties to help determine the effectiveness of a joint promotional or advertising campaign.
We retain personal information submitted by you on a secure server so that on re-visiting our Site, you will not need to re-enter that information. We may use this information in an aggregated form to measure number of visits, average time spent on the Site, pages viewed, and other relevant statistics. We collect this information to measure the use of our Site and to improve the content of our Site.
The personal information that you submit to us remains your property, but by submitting that personal information to us, you grant to us the right to use that information for marketing purposes, including sharing such information with third parties. For example, when you select to receive information about offerings from a third party company during the registration process, we will share your personal information with that third party company to carry out your information request. We will use your personal information to fulfill Company obligations pursuant to any contest, sweepstake, or promotional event sponsored by the Site. We may also use such information to directly market certain offers to you (via e-mail, direct mail and/or telemarketing), to monitor compliance with our Terms of Use and for content improvement and feedback purposes. We may sell the personal information that you supply to us and we may join together with other businesses to bring selected retail opportunities to our members. These businesses may include, but are not limited to: (a) providers of direct marketing services and applications, including lookup and reference, data enhancement, suppression and validation; (b) e-mail marketers; and (c) telemarketers.
In addition, we reserve the right to release current or past member information in the event that we believe that a membership is being or has been used in violation of the Terms of Use or to commit unlawful acts, if the information is subpoenaed, if we are acquired, or when we deem it necessary or appropriate. By agreeing to the terms of this Privacy Policy, you hereby consent to disclosure of any record or communication to any third party when we, in our sole discretion, determine the disclosure to be appropriate including, without limitation, sharing your e-mail address with other third-parties for suppression purposes in compliance with the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003, as amended from time to time and Federal Trade Commission enabling regulations.
You also agree that we, and other third parties, may contact you via e-mail, direct mail and telemarketing for feedback purposes and surveys. In addition, we may send you e-mail regarding general and administrative information about your membership.
In addition, by registering at the Site, you agree that such act constitutes an inquiry and/or application for purposes of the Amended Telemarketing Sales Rule (16 CFR §310 et seq.), as amended from time to time (the “Rule”). Notwithstanding that your telephone number may be listed at the Federal Trade Commission’s Do-Not-Call List, we retain the right to contact you via telemarketing in accordance with the Rule.
