Policy:
1. Privacy commitment
Website is owned and operated by
mysavingtips.com. We are committed to safeguarding your
privacy online. Please read this Privacy Policy to understand
how your personal information will be treated. This policy
may change from time to time so please check it periodically.
2. Information collected
2.1 If you wish to subscribe to the
mysavingtips.com news letter or conduct a transaction we
ask for some personal details. These details include your
job title and company (which we use to build up a profile
of our readership) and your day time telephone number (so
we can speak to you should any problems arise with your
transaction).
2.2 We may also ask you whether you
would like to receive promotional emails and mailings from
us about our other products or services or from other companies
about their products and services which may be of interest
to you.
2.3 We will only pass on your details
to other companies if you have indicated that you would
like to receive further information from them. If you would
like to revise the information provided to us, or feel what
we currently have on record is incorrect, you may update
the information by emailing info@mysavingtips.com
2.4 We may from time to time ask
you for further information in order to update our records
or for particular purposes. We will always tell you how
we will use any further information received from you. We
may share aggregate data, based on users' demographics,
interests, and behaviour with our advertisers or business
partners but this aggregate data will not contain identifiable
personal data.

Log files
3.1 Every time someone visits our
web site a log file is generated on our computer. This contains
information such as the user's IP (Internet Protocol) address,
how long that user spent on the site and which parts of
it they looked at. We collect this information to help us
diagnose problems and administer our systems, to report
aggregate information to our advertisers, and to audit the
use of our site (e.g. what part of the world users are connecting
from, or what ISPs are being used).
3.2 We do not normally link IP addresses
to anything personally identifiable, which means that you
remain anonymous even though we include your IP address
in our aggregate information. However, we can and will attempt
to use IP addresses to identify a user when we feel it is
necessary to enforce compliance to protect our services
and other users.
4. Cookies
4.1 Cookies are small pieces of information
that are stored on and retrieved from your computer by websites
for record-keeping purposes. The use of cookies is an industry
standard and you will find them in use at most major websites.
4.2 We use cookies in a variety of
ways. For example:
4.2.1 Cookies are the simplest way
for us to track user trends and patterns, such as how many
people use different parts of the website. This helps us
better understand which parts of our service users find
valuable, and know what areas to improve;
4.2.2 We use cookies to recognise
you when you visit our website, and to save you time when
logging in. We also use them to keep track of your personal
preferences so you don't have to keep reminding us of them.
4.2.3 Cookies may be used to help
match advertising to particular interests. Some of the advertising
displayed on the website may be provided by outside companies
and may contain additional cookies belonging to our advertisers
but these cookies will not contain any personal identifiable
information about you.

automatically accept cookies. However, you can reset your
browser settings to refuse cookies, or alert you when a

a record of that correspondence and incorporate the information
it contains into our database.
5.2 If we are requested by the police
or a regulatory or government authority investigating illegal
activities to provide information concerning your activities
whilst using the network we shall do so. Similarly, we will
disclose your personal data as part of a transaction whereby
our company or business assets are transferred to a third
party or if we are compelled to do so by law.
6.
How we protect information
6.1 We take every precaution to protect
your information. To this end all personal information stored
by us is kept on a server in a secure environment. Only
employees who need the information to perform a specific
job are granted access to personally identifiable information.
7. How you can help us protect your
information
7.1 Please keep in mind that whenever
you voluntarily disclose personal information online in
non-protected environments - for example on message boards,
through email, or in chat areas - that information can be
collected and used by others. In short, if you post personal
information online that is accessible to the public, you
may receive unsolicited messages from other parties in return.
7.2 Also remember to close your browser
window when you have finished your work. This is to ensure
that others cannot access your personal information and
correspondence if you share a computer with someone else
or are using a computer in a public place like a library
or Internet cafe. We cannot ensure or warrant the security
of any information you transmit to us or from our online
products or services, and you do so at your own risk. Once
we receive your transmission, we make our best effort to
ensure its security on our systems.
8.
Surveys, Competitions and Promotions
From time to time we conduct surveys,
competitions and promotions and may request information
from you as part of these. Participation in these is entirely
voluntary and you therefore have a choice whether or not
to disclose any information which might be required.
9. Email Newsletters
9.1 You have the option to receive
various email services we offer and in this regard we present
the option to not receive these types of communications.
9.2 From time to time we need to
send you site and service announcement updates.
10. Security
This site has security measures in
place to protect the loss, misuse and alteration of the
information under our control. We utilize industry standard
SSL encryption when accepting your credit/debit card information
during our online checkout process. In addition, we utilize
powerful encryption technology when transferring sensitive
data to our order fulfilment system. To further enhance
our security measures, our fulfilment system is not accessible
via the Internet and we remove from our web based database
all sensitive information within 24 hours of receipt.
