How We Collect and Use Your Personally Identifying Information

If you provide us with your zip code, we use it to calculate shipping costs for the listed merchants for the products you have searched on.

When you submit feedback through our Privacy Feedback form we will collect your feedback about a SafeShopping merchant, and along with feedback from other users, use that information to monitor whether SafeShopping merchants are taking steps to protect your privacy. We do not ask or require you to provide personally identifiable information through our feedback form. Information provided through our feedback form is not used to identify you and any personally identifying information is not shared with SafeShopping merchants.

• help you navigate our website
• analyze which pages our site visitors visit
• measure advertising and promotional effectiveness

Please note that some cookies may be placed by a third party service provider who performs some of these functions for us.

As is true of most Web sites, we gather Web server log file information automatically such as your IP address, browser type, referring/exit pages, and operating system. We use this information to administer our website, understand how visitors navigate through our Site and to enhance your experience while using our Site.

How We Share Your Personal Information

We may provide your personal information to companies that provide services to help us with our business activities such as web site analytics or offering customer service. These third parties are authorized to use your information only as necessary to provide these services to us.

If you provide us with your zip code, we will share this with our third party partner to calculate shipping costs and display that information to you along with the merchant listings. We do not provide our third party partner any personally identifying information.

• as required by law such as to comply with a subpoena, or similar legal process
• when we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, protect your safety or the safety of others, investigate fraud or respond to a written government request
• if TRUSTe becomes involved in a merger, acquisition, or any form of sale of some or all of its assets, we will provide notice before personally identifying information becomes subject to a different privacy statement
• to any other third party with your prior consent to do so

We will share your personal information with third parties only in the ways that are described in this Privacy Statement. We do not sell personally identifiable information to third parties.

Security

Providing security for the information you submit via our Site is a priority for TRUSTe. We take appropriate security measures to protect against unauthorized access to; or unauthorized alteration, disclosure, or destruction; of your personally identifying information. Please be aware, however, that no transmission of information via the Internet can be entirely secure. You should, therefore, always use caution when submitting personally identifying information online.

Links to Other Web Sites

This Privacy Statement applies to the safeshopping.com website only. Our Site includes links to other Web sites. If you submit personally identifying information to any of those sites, your information is subject to their privacy statements. We encourage you to carefully read the privacy statement of any Web site you visit.

Our Web site includes Widgets, which are interactive mini-programs that run on our site to provide specific services from another company (e.g. displaying the news, opinions, music, etc). Personal information, such as your email address, may be collected through the Widget. Cookies may also be set by the Widget to enable it to function properly. Information collected by this Widget is governed by the privacy policy of the company that created it.

Changes to this Privacy Statement

Please note that this Privacy Statement may change from time to time. If we change this privacy statement in ways that affect how we use your personally identifying information, we will advise you of choices you may have as a result of those changes. We will also post a notice on our home page that this Privacy Statement has changed.
