Effective May 8, 2008
Generally CouponMountain does not collect, store, use or disclose personally identifying information except in very specific instances, such as, for example, when you provide your email address as part of the sign-up process for our Newsletter or when you sign up for our personalization services (My Account). Whenever we collect such information, you will have a choice regarding whether to provide it, how it will be used, and to whom it will be disclosed. The instances in which CouponMountain does collect and use information are specifically described below in this Privacy Policy.
CouponMountain provides savvy shoppers with the latest available online coupons at a single destination site. These services are provided by CouponMountain which is a wholly owned subsidiary of MeziMedia, Inc ("MeziMedia"). MeziMedia values its users and their concerns about privacy. To this end, MeziMedia engages in consistent information practices and uses its best efforts to make clear disclosures regarding those practices. This Privacy Policy is a part of that effort.
What does this Privacy Policy cover?
This Privacy Policy applies to collection, use, storage and disclosure of information by MeziMedia. If there are any exceptions, we will clearly disclose them prior to collecting any information, and will give you an opportunity to choose not to participate or provide the information.
Please be aware that, as part of the services, MeziMedia may provide links to Web sites operated by third parties, and also provides search services to third parties for display on their own Web sites or applications. MeziMedia is not responsible for the information collection or privacy practices or the content of those third party Web sites or applications. Also, please be aware that banner ads on MeziMedia are provided by a third party, which may collect cookies as part of the process of serving those ads. These cookies are typically used for the purpose of tracking performance of the banner ads. MeziMedia does not determine which information will be collected by that third party. Please see the paragraph below regarding Third Party Banner Ads.
What information does MeziMedia collect and how is it used? Does MeziMedia disclose information to third parties?
MeziMedia may collect any or all of the following three types of information: (a) traffic or clickstream data, (b) anonymous online behavioral information, or (c) contact information and other personally identifying information. MeziMedia's collection and use of each type of data is described below, as well as the ways (if any) in which the data may be shared with third parties.
(a) Traffic or Clickstream Data. Data about traffic and usage is not personally identifying or identifiable, and is not supplemented or combined with personally identifying or identifiable information. MeziMedia may share information it collects with certain selected third parties, but only in aggregated, anonymous form. For example, we may tell an advertiser that a certain number of people visited a certain area on our Web site, registered for coupons, or searched our site for "Amazon coupons". MeziMedia collects some information regarding use of the services by observing browser functions and the files (pages) users access. For example, MeziMedia's servers collect information about the site to which you may depart to enable MeziMedia to calculate and receive payments from its partners. In addition, MeziMedia uses the information (in aggregate form) to better design the services.
(b) Anonymous Online Behavioral Information. Like many sites, MeziMedia collects information about online behavior using cookies. These cookies contain identification information that enables us to see how our users are interacting with our site and how frequently they are returning, as well as to streamline their experiences using the services. Our cookies do not contain any personally identifiable information. Cookies lets us know about repeat visitors and if we are delivering quality products and services. MeziMedia may also use cookies to identify which sites our repeat visitors are coming from, so that we can place more of our online advertising on these sites, and can, where necessary, pay our business partners. To MeziMedia, using information within cookies is an anonymous way to survey how we are doing and to look for ways to improve our services. You may set your browser software to reject cookies, but you may not be able to use all of the features of the services. MeziMedia may share information about usage of the services with third parties, but only in aggregated, anonymous form. In the course of serving advertisements to this site, our third-party advertiser may place or recognize a unique "cookie" on your browser.
(c) Contact Information or Personally Identifying Information. MeziMedia can obtain access to your name, e-mail address and other contact information only (1) when you become a Newsletter subscriber, advertiser/merchant with MeziMedia, provide comments, submit a problem, or request information from MeziMedia and provide your name or return contact information, (2) when you register for the advanced features of coupons (more on this below), or (3) in connection with special offers or contests.
Contact information provided in connection with problems, comments or requests is used only to respond to those problems, comments or requests. This information is not stored or used in connection with traffic or clickstream data and is provided to a third party only as necessary to respond to the comment, problem or request.
Finally, you may choose to provide contact information, other personally identifying information, and demographic information in order to participate in optional surveys or contests, which are run for promotional purposes. MeziMedia uses such information to send you information about its products and to notify you if you win the contest. Finally, from time to time, but only with your permission, MeziMedia may provide certain of its users' registration information to selected third parties who wish to participate in special promotions offered in conjunction with MeziMedia. You may opt-out of receiving such communications or having your personal information shared with third parties at any time by sending a request that includes your full name, email address, and postal address to: Mezi Media, Attn: Privacy Officer, 103 E. Lemon Ave. Suite 200, Monrovia, CA 91016.
Is data stored by MeziMedia secure?
To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the appropriate use of information, MeziMedia has put in place physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information it collects online. However, data security is a constantly evolving art and science. You should consider any communication that you transmit to MeziMedia (such as data, questions or answers, comments, or suggestions) as non-confidential, and agree that MeziMedia will not be liable or responsible if information that belongs to you is intercepted and used by an unintended recipient.
Does MeziMedia collect personally identifying information from or about children?
MeziMedia uses reasonable efforts not to collect, use or disclose individually identifiable information from children under the age of 13. The services are not targeted at children, and children may not register for any portions of the services that require registration.
How can I learn about changes to this privacy policy?
Mezi Media may find it necessary or be legally obligated to update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will post those changes on this page and update the effective date so that you are always aware of the information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances we disclose it. Except as otherwise required by law, modifications to this Privacy Policy will not affect the privacy of data collected by Mezi Media prior to the effective date of the policy change unless we provide you direct notice and the opportunity to opt-out of such proposed change.
How can I access or correct any personally identifying information about me?
To request a copy of the personally identifiable information you have sent to MeziMedia, please send an email containing your request on the form located at: http://www.couponmountain.co.uk/Contact_Us.html.
