HOW DO WE COLLECT YOUR INFORMATION?
Personal Information You Provide
We collect your personally identifiable information such as your name and e-mail address, when you participate in any of the following offerings, if available: subscribe to any e-mail newsletters, participate in online forums or communities, send an e-card, request access to certain special features on the Site, opt-in to enter contests, sweepstakes or receive promotional offers from us and/or our partners, advertisers or sponsors, send us specific comments, questions or requests or to make a purchase through the Site. Types of personally identifiable information we may request include: name, address, telephone number, e-mail address or credit card information.
Optional Information When accessing the Site, we may give you the option of submitting other general information. Types of optional information requested may include age, gender or personal interests. We may request such optional information to help us better understand you. If you request that we send you additional information regarding available offerings, we may also use the optional information to fulfill such requests.
Third Party Information At some areas of the site, you may be able to submit information about other people. For instance, you may submit someone else's name and e-mail address in order to send them an e-card or you may want to submit their mailing address to send them a purchase directly. Types of personally identifiable information that may be requested include: name, address, telephone number or e-mail address. This information will only be used for the purpose for which it was collected.
Technical Information When you visit the Site, we may also collect technical information that does not, by itself, identify you as a specific individual. This information (sometimes referred to as “non-personally identifiable information”) may include the address (or “URL”) of the Website that you came from before visiting the Site, which pages you visit on the Site, the frequency with which you visit certain areas of the Site, which browser you use to view the Site and any search terms you have entered on the Site. We use this technical data in aggregated form to measure and improve the effectiveness of the Site. We may collect your IP (Internet Protocol) address to help diagnose problems with our server, administer the Site, and see where our Site's traffic is coming from. We may also collect other non-personally identifiable information via the Site, such as Site usage activity and preferences, also known as demographic or profile data. We may combine this technical data with personal information. For instance, we may send out HTML e-mails and use technical methods to determine whether the e-mail has been opened and if the links in the e-mail were clicked on. The information collected from these e-mails may be personally identifiable.
DO WE USE COOKIES, CLEAR GIFS OR THIRD PARTY ADVERTISERS?
We may use “cookies” (described in more detail below) and clear GIFs in the Site and/or in our communications with you to enhance the functionality of the Site and to make your transactions and other activities more convenient and efficient. We use cookies to remember your preferences or minimize the need for you to re-enter information.
Cookies A “cookie” is a small data file that a Website may send to your browser and that your browser may then store on your system. We use session cookies, for example, to simulate a continuous connection - cookies let us “remember” information about your preferences and passwords and allow you to move within the Site without reintroducing yourself. Most browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually refuse cookies, or selectively accept cookies, by adjusting the preferences in your browser. If you refuse cookies, there may be some features of the Site that will not be available to you and some Web pages may not display properly.
Clear GIFs A “clear GIF” is typically a one-pixel, transparent image (although it can be a visible image as well), located on a Web page or in an e-mail, which is retrieved from a remote site on the Internet enabling the verification of an individual's viewing or receipt of a Web page or e-mail message.
Third Parties We have no control over what information third parties (for example, advertisers, ad servers or online stores) track or collect, and we have no responsibility or liability for any tracking, data collection or other activities of third parties.
