Privacy Policy for Giftguidespro.com

1. Scope

Giftguidespro.com (“Gift Guide Pro”) owns and operates the website www.giftguidespro.com (the “Site”) and is the sole owner of the information collected on the Site.

This Privacy Policy explains how we handle your personally identifiable information (“Personal Data”) on the Site. Gift Guide Pro understands that users care about how their personal information is used and shared, and we take your privacy seriously. Please read this Privacy Policy to learn more about our practices.

By voluntarily providing us with Personal Data, you consent to our use of it in accordance with this Privacy Policy. If you provide Personal Data to the Site, you acknowledge and agree that such Personal Data may be transferred from your current location to the offices and servers of Gift Guide Pro and the authorized third parties referred to herein.

2. Information Collected Through the Site

To use the extended features of our Site, you must complete the registration form and create a username and password. During registration and use of the Site, you are required to provide contact information and other Personal Data. The types of information collected and the points at which they are collected include:

A. Personal Data

1. Registered Users: Users wishing to access extended features of our Site may be required to register and provide some Personal Data, such as name and email address. This registration information is used to provide access to the Site and to contact you when necessary.
2. Non-Registered Users: While no Personal Data is requested from Users who do not register, other data may be collected in association with the use of our Site.

B. Other Information

1. Log Files: Like most websites, we gather certain information automatically and store it in log files. This information includes IP addresses, browser type, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp, and clickstream data. We use this information, which does not identify individual users, to analyze trends, administer the site, track users’ movements around the site, and gather demographic information about our user base as a whole. Although we do not routinely associate this data with records containing Personal Data, we will use IP addresses to identify any user who refuses to comply with our Terms of Use and to identify users who threaten our service, Site, or other users.
2. Cookies: A cookie is a small text file stored on a user’s computer for record-keeping purposes. We use cookies on this site and do not link the information stored in cookies to personally identifiable information you submit while on our site. We may use both session ID cookies and/or persistent cookies as part of the Site’s functionality. A session ID cookie expires when you close your browser and allows the Site to display your current session. A persistent cookie remains on your hard drive for an extended period of time and may be used to store your username or other identifier used by the Site. You can remove persistent cookies by following directions provided in your Internet browser’s “help” file. Most browsers have an option for turning off the cookie feature, which will prevent your browser from accepting new cookies and allow you to decide on acceptance of each new cookie in various ways. We strongly recommend leaving cookies activated to ensure the proper functionality of the Site.

3. Our Use of Your Personal Data and Other Information

We use the Personal Data you provide in a manner consistent with this Privacy Policy. If you provide Personal Data for a certain reason, we may use the Personal Data in connection with the reason it was provided. For example, registration information submitted when creating your account may be used to suggest products based on past purchases. Additionally, we may use your Personal Data to provide access to services on the Site and monitor your use of such services. Gift Guide Pro may also use your Personal Data and other non-identifiable information collected through the Site to improve the content and functionality of the Site, better understand our users, and enhance our services.

4. Our Disclosure of Your Personal Data and Other Information

Gift Guide Pro does not sell your Personal Data. We consider this information a vital part of our relationship with you and will not disclose it to third parties except as described in this Privacy Policy. There are, however, certain circumstances in which we may share your Personal Data with specific third parties without further notice to you, as outlined below:

1. Business Transfers: As we develop our business, we might sell or buy businesses or assets. In the event of a corporate sale, merger, reorganization, dissolution, or similar event, Personal Data may be part of the transferred assets.
2. Related Companies: We may share your Personal Data with Gift Guide Pro-related companies for the same purposes as Gift Guide Pro itself. This means your Personal Data may be used by related companies to improve the content and functionality of the Site, better understand our users, and enhance or deliver our services.
3. Agents, Consultants, and Related Third Parties: Gift Guide Pro, like many businesses, sometimes hires other companies to perform certain business-related functions. We may use third-party companies to provide mailing services, database maintenance, payment processing, and identity verification. When you register for the Site, we will share your Personal Data, such as your email, only as necessary for the third party to provide such services. These third parties are prohibited from using your personally identifiable information for any other purpose. Other than the agents, consultants, and related third parties described above, Gift Guide Pro will not share, rent, or trade Personal Data with any third parties for their promotional purposes.
4. Legal Requirements: We reserve the right to disclose your Personal Data as required by law and when we believe disclosure is necessary to protect our rights and/or comply with a judicial proceeding, court order, or legal process served on us or our Site. Gift Guide Pro may also disclose your Personal Data in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to (i) protect and defend the rights or property of Gift Guide Pro, (ii) act in urgent circumstances to protect the personal safety of users of the Site or the public, or (iii) protect against legal liability.
5. Consent: Except as set forth above, you will be notified when your Personal Data may be shared with third parties, and will be able to prevent the sharing of this information. If your Personal Data changes, or if you no longer desire our service, you may correct, update, delete, or deactivate it by making the change on the Site. Alternatively, you may email our Customer Support staff or contact us by telephone or regular mail at the contact information listed below.

5. External Links

Our Site may provide links to various third-party websites. However, even if a third-party affiliation exists between our site and the destination site, we do not exercise authority over these linked sites, each of which maintains independent privacy and data collection policies and procedures. We do not assume responsibility or liability for the independent policies and procedures of destination sites. Similarly, we cannot take responsibility for the privacy initiatives or the content of such websites. However, we wish to ensure the integrity of our site and any destination links, so any comments about any website accessed through these links are greatly appreciated.

6. Exclusions

This Privacy Policy does not apply to any information collected by Gift Guide Pro other than Personal Data collected through the Site. This Privacy Policy does not apply to any unsolicited information you provide to Gift Guide Pro through the Site or any other means. This includes, but is not limited to, information posted to any public area of the Site, such as comments, forums, and review sections (collectively, “Public Areas”). Please think carefully before disclosing Personal Data in a Public Area. All such information is not confidential and Gift Guide Pro is free to reproduce, use, disclose, and distribute such information to others without limitation or attribution, and it may be used by others in ways we cannot prevent.

7. Children

Gift Guide Pro respects the sensitive nature of children’s privacy online. We do not direct any of our content or services, nor do we knowingly collect Personal Data from children under the age of 13. If you are under thirteen, please do not submit any Personal Data through the Site. If you believe a child under the age of 13 has provided Personal Data to Gift Guide Pro through the Site, please contact us, and we will endeavor to delete that information from our databases.

8. Security

We employ reasonable security measures to protect against the loss, misuse, and alteration of the Personal Data under our control. Personal Data is stored in a secured database and always sent via an encrypted SSL protocol when supported by your browser. However, no Internet or email transmission is ever fully secure or error-free. In particular, email sent to or from the Site may not be secure. Therefore, you should take special care in deciding what information you send to us via email.

9. Opt-Out

We provide you the opportunity to “opt-out” of having your personally identifiable information used for certain purposes when we ask for this information. For example, when you register for the Site, if you do not wish to receive any additional material or notifications from us, you can indicate your preference on our registration form.

10. Framing

At times, the Site may use “framing” technology, during which a frame within the window of the Site displays the content of another website not owned or operated by Gift Guide Pro. You should read the privacy policy of such other website as it will govern the information collected there.

11. Other Terms and Conditions

Your access to and use of the Site is subject to the Terms of Use. The Site is intended for United States users, and United States law governs all transactions conducted on the Site and any use of materials found on the Site.
