This Privacy Policy is intended to inform you of our policies and practices regarding the collection, use and disclosure of any information you submit to us through inDeals. This includes "Personal Information," which is information about you that is personally identifiable such as your name, e-mail address, user ID number, and other non-public information that is associated with the foregoing, as well as "Anonymous Information," which is information that is not associated with or linked to your Personal Information and does not permit the identification of individual persons.

User Consent

By accessing or otherwise using inDeals, you agree to the terms and conditions of this Privacy Policy and you expressly consent to the processing of your Personal Information and Anonymous Information according to this Privacy Policy.

Your Personal Information may be processed and stored in other countries (including the United States) where laws regarding processing of Personal Information may be less stringent than the laws in your country. Your Personal Information will not, however, be used or disclosed for purposes for which you have not given consent or which are not permitted under applicable law.

Regarding Children

Children under the age of 13 are not permitted to use inDeals and we do not intentionally collect or maintain Personal Information from those who are under 13 years old.

We recommend that children between the ages of 13 and 18 obtain their parent’s permission before submitting information over the internet. By using inDeals, you are representing that you are at least 18 years old, or that you are at least 13 years old and have a parent’s or guardian’s permission to use inDeals.

Information Collected Via Technology

As you use inDeals, certain information may also be passively collected and stored on our or our service providers’ server logs, including your Internet protocol address, browser type, and operating system.

This type of information is collected to make inDeals and solutions more useful to you and to tailor the experience with inDeals to meet your special interests and needs.

 

We engage in remarketing to market our sites across the web. When a user visits our site, a cookie is dropped on the user.

An "Internet protocol address" or "IP Address" is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer when you use the Internet. In some cases your IP Address stays the same from browser session to browser session; but if you use a consumer internet access provider, your IP Address probably varies from session to session. For example, we, or our service providers, may track your IP Address when you access inDeals to assist with ad targeting.

"Cookies" are small pieces of information that a website sends to your computer’s hard drive while you are viewing a website. We may use both session Cookies (which expire once you close your web browser) and persistent Cookies (which stay on your computer until you delete them) to provide you with a more personal and interactive experience with inDeals. Persistent Cookies can be removed by following your Internet browser help file directions. In order to use our services offered through inDeals, your web browser must accept Cookies.

Clicking on such advertisements will direct you to the website of a third-party and the advertiser. This Privacy Policy does not cover the privacy practices of any advertisers or ad servers.

We may share some or all of your Personal Information with inDeals affiliated and group companies that are under a common control, so that they may send daily deal e-mails to you, in which case we will require them to honour this Privacy Policy.
