Privacy Policy
Last Updated: 9th October, 2009
MyWeddingCost.com strives to offer its visitors the many advantages of Internet
technology and to provide an interactive and personalized experience. We may use
Personally Identifiable Information (your name, e-mail address) subject to the terms
of this privacy policy. We will never sell, barter, or rent your email address to
any unauthorized third party. Period.
How we gather information from users
How we collect and store information depends on the page you are visiting, the
activities in which you elect to participate and the services provided. For example,
you may be asked to provide information when you register for access to certain
portions of our site or request certain features, such as newsletters or when you
make a purchase. You may provide information when you participate in sweepstakes
and contests, message boards and chat rooms, and other interactive areas of our
site. Like most Web sites, MyWeddingCost.com also collects information automatically
and through the use of electronic tools that may be transparent to our visitors.
For example, we may log the name of your Internet Service Provider or use cookie
technology to recognize you and hold information from your visit. Among other things,
the cookie may store your user name and password, sparing you from having to re-enter
that information each time you visit, or may control the number of times you encounter
a particular advertisement while visiting our site. As we adopt additional technology,
we may also gather information through other means. In certain cases, you can choose
not to provide us with information, for example by setting your browser to refuse
to accept cookies, but if you do you may be unable to access certain portions of
the site or may be asked to re-enter your user name and password, and we may not
be able to customize the site’s features according to your preferences.
What we do with the information we collect
Like other Web publishers, we collect information to enhance your visit and deliver
more individualized content and advertising. We respect your privacy and do not
share your information with anyone.
Aggregated Information (information that does not personally identify you) may
be used in many ways. For example, we may combine information about your usage patterns
with similar information obtained from other users to help enhance our site and
services (e.g., to learn which pages are visited most or what features are most
attractive). Aggregated Information may occasionally be shared with our advertisers
and business partners. Again, this information does not include any Personally Identifiable
Information about you or allow anyone to identify you individually.
We may use Personally Identifiable Information collected on MyWeddingCost.com
to communicate with you about your registration and customization preferences; services
and products offered by MyWeddingCost.com and other topics we think you might
find of interest. If you decide to opt-in to our mailing list, you will receive
emails that may include company news, updates, related product or service information,
etc. Note: If at any time you would like to unsubscribe from receiving future emails,
we include detailed unsubscribe instructions at the bottom of each email.
Personally Identifiable Information collected by MyWeddingCost.com may also
be used for other purposes, including but not limited to site administration, troubleshooting,
processing of e-commerce transactions, administration of sweepstakes and contests,
and other communications with you. Certain third parties who provide technical support
for the operation of our site (our Web hosting service for example) may access such
information. We will use your information only as permitted by law. In addition,
from time to time as we continue to develop our business, we may sell, buy, merge
or partner with other companies or businesses. In such transactions, user information
may be among the transferred assets. We may also disclose your information in response
to a court order, at other times when we believe we are reasonably required to do
so by law, in connection with the collection of amounts you may owe to us, and/or
to law enforcement authorities whenever we deem it appropriate or necessary. Please
note we may not provide you with notice prior to disclosure in such cases.
Affiliated sites, linked sites and advertisements
MyWeddingCost.com expects its partners, advertisers and affiliates to respect
the privacy of our users. Be aware, however, that third parties, including our partners,
advertisers, affiliates and other content providers accessible through our site,
may have their own privacy and data collection policies and practices. For example,
during your visit to our site you may link to, or view as part of a frame on a MyWeddingCost.com
page, certain content that is actually created or hosted by a third party. Also,
through MyWeddingCost.com you may be introduced to, or be able to access, information,
Web sites, features, contests or sweepstakes offered by other parties. MyWeddingCost.com
is not responsible for the actions or policies of such third parties. You should
check the applicable privacy policies of those third parties when providing information
on a feature or page operated by a third party.
While on our site, our advertisers, promotional partners or other third parties
may use cookies or other technology to attempt to identify some of your preferences
or retrieve information about you. For example, some of our advertising is served
by third parties and may include cookies that enable the advertiser to determine
whether you have seen a particular advertisement before. Other features available
on our site may offer services operated by third parties and may use cookies or
other technology to gather information. MyWeddingCost.com does not control
the use of this technology by third parties or the resulting information, and is
not responsible for any actions or policies of such third parties.
You should also be aware that if you voluntarily disclose Personally Identifiable
Information on message boards or in chat areas, that information can be viewed publicly
and can be collected and used by third parties without our knowledge and may result
in unsolicited messages from other individuals or third parties. Such activities
are beyond the control of MyWeddingCost.com and this policy.
Children
MyWeddingCost.com does not knowingly collect or solicit Personally Identifiable
Information from or about children under 13 except as permitted by law. If we discover
we have received any information from a child under 13 in violation of this policy,
we will delete that information immediately. If you believe MyWeddingCost.com
has any information from or about anyone under 13, please contact us at the address
