Information Collection & Use

Registration as a "couple"

In order to use SmartHoneymoon.com, you must first register with us. During registration you are required to give us contact information (such as name, address, phone, email address, and wedding date). We use this information to contact you, if necessary, about your registry, and to send you proceeds from your registry in a timely and accurate fashion. We do not, and will not, sell, trade or give away this information to anyone for any reason. Your information is stored in our active database until 30 days after your registry is closed, at which point it is saved in our archive, for use if required by law. SmartHoneymoon.com is the sole owner of information collected at SmartHoneymoon.com.

We will also give you the option to receive our newsletter via email. You must actively choose to do so (opt in) by selecting that option on the "Create a Profile" page. If you so select, then we will store your name and email address in a newsletter database. You will have the ability to stop receiving the newsletters, thereby removing your name from the newsletter database, by following the link in the newsletter, or by contacting us at CustomerService@SmartHoneymoon.com and requesting to be removed from that list. We do not, and will not, sell, trade or give away this information to anyone for any reason.

Customer service: Based upon the personally identifiable information you provide us, we will send you a welcoming email to verify your username and password. We will also communicate with you in response to your inquiries, to provide the services you request, and to manage your account.

Registration as a "guest"

In order to purchase an item from a registry, you are required to enter personal and financial information, including name, billing address, phone and credit card information. When you enter your personal and financial information on our order form, we encrypt it using secure socket layer technology (SSL) to protect the information. We use this information to help us verify that you are the cardholder, and intend for us to charge your card to purchase this registry item. We use this information for billing purposes only. If we have trouble processing an order, we will use this information to contact you. We will also ask you for your email address so we can send you a receipt and sample gift card. We do not, and will not, sell, trade or give away this information to anyone for any reason. Your information is stored in our active database until 30 days after the couple's registry is closed, at which point it is saved in our archive, for use if required by law. SmartHoneymoon.com is the sole owner of information collected at SmartHoneymoon.com.

We will also give you, as a "guest", the option to receive our newsletter via email. You must actively choose to do so (opt in) by selecting that option on the checkout page. If you so select, then we will store your name and email address in a newsletter database. You will have the ability to stop receiving the newsletters by following the link in the newsletter, or by contacting us at CustomerService@SmartHoneymoon.com and requesting to be removed from that list. We do not, and will not, sell, trade or give away this information to anyone for any reason.

Legal Disclaimer

We reserve the right to disclose your personally identifiable information as required by law and when we believe that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights and/or to comply with a judicial proceeding, court order, or legal process served on our Web site.

Log Files

As is true of most Web sites, we gather certain information automatically and store it in log files. This information includes Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages and date/time stamp. We use this information, which does not identify individual users, to analyze trends, to administer the site, and to track users' movements around the site. We do not link this automatically collected data to personally identifiable information.

Cookies

A cookie is a small text file that is stored on a user's computer for record-keeping purposes. We use cookies on this site. We do not link the information we store in cookies to any personally identifiable information you submit while on our site.

We use both session ID cookies and persistent cookies. We use session cookies to make it easier for you to navigate our site. A session ID cookie expires when you close your browser. A persistent cookie remains on your hard drive for an extended period of time. You can remove persistent cookies by following directions provided in your Internet browser's "help" file. We set a persistent cookie to store your username, so you don't have to enter it more than once. We believe that persistent cookies help the SmartHoneymoon couple's user experience.

Agents

We use an outside credit card processing company to bill you for your order. This company does not retain, share, store or use personally identifiable information for any other purposes.

Links to Other Sites

This Web site contains links to other sites that are not owned or controlled by SmartHoneymoon.com. Please be aware that SmartHoneymoon.com is not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage you to be aware when you leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every Web site that collects personally identifiable information. This privacy statement applies only to information collected by this Web site.

Access to Personally Identifiable Information

If your personally identifiable information changes, or if you no longer desire our service, you may correct, update, delete or deactivate it by making the change on our Couple's Main information page or by emailing our Customer Service at CustomerService@SmartHoneymoon.com, or by contacting us by telephone or postal mail at the contact information listed below.

Security

The security of your personal information is important to us. When you enter sensitive information (such as credit card number or password) on our registration or order forms, we encrypt that information using secure socket layer technology (SSL).

We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure, however. Therefore, while we strive to use the most recent and best commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

If you have any questions about security on our Web site, you can email us at CustomerService@SmartHoneymoon.com.
