We will take the appropriate organizational and technical measures to protect your Personal Information and other data provided to or collected by us that are necessary to comply fully with any and all applicable laws, obligations, and regulations.

Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your Personal Information, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us or from our Service, and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your transmission, we make our best effort to ensure its security on our systems.

How long is your Personal Information stored?

We may retain your Personal Information for as long as permitted by law and as long as is necessary to permit you to use our Service without the requirement of resubmitting the same information.

We do not and will not, at any time, request your credit card information, login name, or password, in an unsecure or unsolicited e-mail or telephone communication.

Do Not Track disclosure

Mobile device users can set their device preferences to Do Not Track ("DNT") to tell websites and services not to collect information from that device. However, we do not recognize or respond to DNT signals.

What else should you know about your privacy?

If you choose to use our Service you should be aware that any information transmitted electronically via the Internet may not be secure. We assume no liability for the loss or misuse of any information that you transmit to us via the Internet.

Further, the information you upload or post to publicly viewable pages on the Service is publicly available and may be viewed, collected, and used by other users. Please refer to our Terms of Use regarding the posting of content and interactions with other users, and we encourage you to caution and discretion with respect to your personal information.

In communicating with you, we may send e-mail as unencrypted plain text because we are aware that most customers cannot easily process encrypted e-mail. This is done for your convenience, but with the security concern that, if misrouted or intercepted, it could be read more easily than encrypted e-mail.

Effective date of this Privacy Policy and future modification

This Privacy Policy is effective as of 10/25/2017. We reserve the right to make changes, deletions, modifications, or provide supplements to this policy from time to time. Changes will apply to the information collected after the date of changes as well as to existing information held by us and will take effect immediately upon publication, unless otherwise stated in writing by Giftcard.net. You agree that the express acceptance by you, or your continued use of our Service after publication of changes, shall constitute your acceptance of the current Privacy Policy.
