Privacy Policy
We at Giftonia.in
(“Seller,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) know
that our users (“you,” “your,” or “yourself”)
care about how your personal information is used and shared, and we take your
privacy seriously. Please read the following to learn more about our Privacy
Policy. By visiting or using the www.giftonia.in website and domain name,
any other linked pages, features, content, mobile applications, and any other
services we offer from time to time in connection with any of the foregoing
(collectively, the “Website”), you agree to the practices and
policies set forth in this Privacy Policy, and you hereby acknowledge and
consent to our collection, use, and sharing of your information as described in
this Privacy Policy. Capitalized terms that are not defined in this
Privacy Policy have the meaning given to them in our Terms of Use.
What Does This Privacy Policy Cover?
This Privacy Policy covers our
treatment of personally identifiable information (“Personal
Information”) that we gather when you are accessing or using our Website.
This policy does not apply to the practices of companies that we do not own or
control, or to individuals that we do not employ or manage, even if you have
accessed the websites or services of those companies through our Website.
We do not knowingly collect or
solicit personal information from anyone under the age of 13 or knowingly allow
such persons to register for the Services (as that term is defined in
our Terms of Use). If you are under 13, please do not attempt to register
for the Services or send any information about yourself to us, including your
name, address, telephone number, or email address. No one under age 13 may
provide any personal information to us or on the Services. If we learn that we
have collected personal information from a child under age 13 without
verification of parental consent, we will delete that information as quickly as
possible. If you believe that we might have any information from or about a
child under 13, please contact us at hello@giftonia.com.
What information does the Seller Collect?
We gather various types of
Personal Information from our users, as explained more fully below. We may use
this Personal Information to, among other things, personalize and improve our
services, allow our users to set up a user account and profile, contact users,
fulfill your requests for certain products and services, analyze how users
utilize the Website, or as otherwise set forth in this Privacy Policy. We may share
certain types of Personal Information with third parties (as described in this
Section and in Section III below). We collect the following types of
information:
·
Information You Provide to Us:
We receive and store any
information you knowingly provide to us. For example, we collect Personal
Information such as your name, username, phone number, credit card and other
billing information, email address, shipping address, and your friends’ email addresses
(which we will only use in order to invite them to use the Service), and your
third-party account credentials (for example, your log-in credentials for
Facebook). We may also collect information you supply to us regarding your
personal preferences and interests
We may anonymize your Personal
Information so that you cannot be individually identified and provide that
anonymized information to our partners. For example, we allow advertisers to
choose the demographic information of users who will see their advertisements
and you agree that we may use any of the information we have collected from you
in non-personally identifiable form to allow our advertisers to select the
appropriate audience for those advertisements. We might use the fact you have
purchased or inquired about a certain brand of apparel, for instance, to show
you advertisements for the company that sells that brand, but we will not tell
that company who you are.
Information Collected Automatically:
Whenever you interact with
our Website, we automatically receive and record information on our server logs
from your browser including your IP address, “cookie” information, and the page
you requested. “Cookies” are identifiers we transfer to your computer or device
that allow us to recognize your browser or device and tell us how and when
pages in our Website are visited and by how many people. You may be able to
change the preferences on your browser or device to prevent or limit your
computer’s or device’s acceptance of cookies, but doing so may prevent you from
taking advantage of our Website’s best features. Our advertising partners may
transmit cookies to your computer or device when you click on ads that appear
on our site. This Privacy Policy does not cover cookies delivered to you by any
of our advertisers.
When we collect usage information
(such as the numbers and frequency of visitors to the Website and to which
pages within the Website), we only use such data in aggregate form, in a manner
that assures your anonymity. We may provide this aggregate usage information to
our partners; our partners may use such information to understand how often and
in what ways people use our Website, so that our partners, too, can endeavor to
provide you with an optimal online experience. For example, we may place a
cookie on your device that records what products you have viewed on our
Website, and then provide that information, in non-personally-identifiable
form, to a third party website, to allow such website to show you ads for
similar products that are available from us or from third parties.
We may also deliver a file to you
through the Website (known as a “web beacon”) from an advertising
network we have contracted with. Web beacons allow advertising networks to
provide anonymized, aggregated auditing, research and reporting for us and for
advertisers. Web beacons also enable ad networks to serve targeted
advertisements to you when you visit other websites. These beacons may, for
example, log that you have viewed a certain product on our Website, and then
show you an ad for similar products when you browse to another website. Because
your web browser must request these advertisements and web beacons from the ad
network’s servers, these companies can view, edit, or set their own cookies,
just as if you had requested a web page from their site. Many ad networks
participate in the Network Advertising Initiative (“NAI”), a
cooperative of online marketing and analytics companies committed to building
consumer awareness and establishing responsible business and data management
practices and standards, and such NAI members may allow you to opt-out of
cookies or beacons they deliver. Again, we do not control the policies of any
third parties, including advertising networks.
E-mail and Other Communications:
We may contact you, by email or
other means. For example, we may send you promotional offers on behalf of other
businesses, or communicate with you about your use of the Website. Also, we may
receive a confirmation when you open an email from us. If you do not want to
receive email or other mail from us, please indicate your preference
by changing your account settings accordingly.
We neither rent nor sell your
Personal Information in personally identifiable form to anyone. We share your
Personal Information in personally identifiable form with third parties only as
described below:
Affiliated Businesses and Third
Party Websites We Do Not Control:
In certain situations, businesses
or third party websites we’re affiliated with may sell items or provide
services to you through the Website (either alone or jointly with us). You can
recognize when an affiliated business is associated with such a transaction or
service, and we will share your Personal Information with that affiliated
business only to the extent that we deem it related to such transaction or
service.
Is Personal Information about me Secure?
Your account is protected by a password for your privacy
and security. You need to prevent unauthorized access to your account and
Personal Information by selecting and protecting your password (or other
sign-on protections) appropriately and limiting access to your computer or
device by signing off after you have finished accessing your account.
We endeavor to protect the privacy of your account and
other Personal Information we hold in our records, but we cannot guarantee
complete security. Unauthorized entry or use, hardware or software failure, and
other factors may compromise the security of user information at any time.
The Website may contain links to other sites. We are not
responsible for the privacy policies and/or practices on other sites. When
following a link to another site you should read that site’s privacy policy.

you’ve provided to us:
·

shipping and billing information

images you have uploaded to the site
The information you can view and update may change as the
Website changes. If you have any questions about viewing or updating
information we have on file about you, please contact us at hello@giftonia.in
What Choices
Do I Have?
You can
always elect not to disclose information to us. However, please keep in mind
that we may need some information to allow you register with us or to take
advantage of some or all of our features, and if you choose not to provide that
information, your ability to use our Website and services may be limited.
You may be
able to add, update, or delete information as explained in Section V above.
When you update information, however, we may maintain a copy of the unrevised
information in our records. You may request deletion of your account
by visiting your account settings. Please note that some information may
remain in our private records after your deletion of such information from your
account. We may use any aggregated data derived from or incorporating your
Personal Information even if you update or delete it, but we will not use that
information in a manner that would identify you personally.
If you do not
wish to receive email or other mail from us, please change your account
settings accordingly. Please note that if you do not want to receive legal
notices from us, such as this Privacy Policy, those legal notices will still
govern your use of the Website, and you are responsible for reviewing such
legal notices for changes.
