We want to bring you information that is relevant and targeted to your individual needs and, at the same time, protect your privacy. Please read this notice carefully.

Personal Information

Feel free to browse all of our content without disclosing any information. Our content is for you, the readers. In the event that you want to receive email updates, newsletters, or utilize our reminder and/or wish-list service, we will need your email. So that we may provide you with additional services and relevant content, we may also request your name, location, and telephone number. GiftGenius does not collect any other personal information that you do not expressly provide. GiftGenius will never sell, rent or share your personal information, including your e-mail address, with any third parties for marketing purposes without your express permission.

Other Information

In order to better serve you and make our site better, we may also request non-personally identifiable information known as demographic and profile data, such as annual income, buying preferences, or age. We may use this data to improve our site and/or tailor your experience at our site, showing you content that we think you might be interested in, and displaying content according to your preferences. We may also share this information with others, such as advertisers interested in advertising in GiftGenius or our site, in aggregate, anonymous form, which means that the information will not contain any personally identifiable information about you or any other person. Providing any of this information is optional.

Usage Information

In addition to collecting personal and non-personal information, GiftGenius may also collect non-personal, aggregated information about subscribers' use of our emails and our site. This information is not personally identifiable and will only be used to find out how subscribers use our service and site. For example, this information will tell us how much time users spend on our site, from which other sites subscribers came, and to what other sites subscribers go. The collection of this information allows us to, among other things, prepare for traffic load demands and to efficiently deliver our content.

Review and Access

If you request it, GiftGenius will provide you with a summary of all of the information we collect about you. You will have an opportunity to correct, update or modify this information.

Choice/Opt-Out

If we ever send you information by e-mail concerning new products or services that you did not expressly request, we will provide you with an e-mail address by which you may request no future notices.

Third Party Advertising

Some of the ads appearing on this Web site are delivered to you by our Web advertising partners. Information about your visit to their site, such as number of times you have viewed an ad (but not your name, address, or other personal information), is used to serve ads to you.

Tracking & Cookies

Like most sites, GiftGenius makes use of browser "cookies", small text files placed on your computer's hard disk by our server. They allow us to quickly check your status as a subscriber and facilitate access to your preferences. Some of our advertisers may also serve you cookies, but we unfortunately have no control over these. GiftGenius will never use cookies to retrieve information from a computer that is unrelated to our site or services.

Links to Other Sites

As part of the service, GiftGenius may create links allowing you to access third party sites. GiftGenius is not responsible for the content that appears on those sites and does not endorse these sites. Please consult those sites' individual privacy policies in order to determine how they treat user information.
