Privacy Policy
Protecting your privacy is important to us. We hope the following statement will
help you understand how we collect, use and safeguard the personal information
you provide to us on our web site.
To create an account, we collect your email address, password, and shipping
information. We use this information to set up your account, to send you a
registration confirmation email and to log your shipping information so that we
know where to send your order. We may also use your email address to send you
information about new services, features, and special offers from us. Members
may opt-out of receiving future mailings of this nature by following the
relevant instructions articulated in the body of these promotional emails.
There are many ways to refer friends. One possible way is to have us send a
one-time invitation on your behalf to join our website. All referral email
addresses are securely protected. FreeElmos runs on secure data networks
protected by industry standard firewall and password protection systems. Our
security and privacy policies are periodically reviewed and enhanced as
necessary and only authorized individuals have access to the information
provided by our customers.
We do not give or share your email address. Keep in mind, however, that if you
take advantage of an offer from a FreeElmos business partner and thus, become
their customer, they may independently wish to send offers to you. In the event
that you are not interested in receiving future offers from these affiliates,
you must contact them directly to fulfill your list removal request.
As a member of our site, we will be sending emails for various reasons as you
continue to use our site. For example, a welcome email will be sent thanking
you for joining, or an email telling you an order has shipped, etc. These
emails are required for logistical purposes and users cannot opt-out of these
types of emails.
When you place an order, your Free Elmo will usually ship directly from our
storage facility. Occasionally, an order may be shipped from a partnering
fulfillment facility, in which case your shipping information is sent to a
vendor who will fulfill and ship your product(s). In such cases, our suppliers
will also safeguard your personal information and not give it out to other
parties for any reason. They will not have access to any referral information
you provide. We will not send you anything in the mail you haven't ordered.
Our goal is to deliver offers to people who we believe will find them of value.
Offers are developed and managed under strict conditions designed to safeguard
the security and privacy of customer personal information. When you click on an
offer, you will be redirected to that advertiser's site. An instruction box
will appear explaining to which offer you are being redirected.
"Cookies" are small pieces of information that are stored by your browser on
your computer's hard drive. FreeElmos uses cookies to better understand your
traffic patterns through the web site as well as keeping your login information
securely stored. This information helps us improve the navigation and flow of
the web site. Additionally this may allow users who choose to be remembered
when they come back to our site to be automatically logged in. We link cookies
to personally identifiable information so that we may track your activities on
our site in order to credit you for completing the offer. Most Web browsers
automatically accept cookies, but if you choose to disable the use of cookies,
you will run the risk of not receiving proper credit for completing an offer.
Some of our business partners (e.g., advertisers/offer providers) may use
cookies on our site. We have no access to or control over these types of
cookies.
Please note that we can only allow one account per household. This rule exists
to protect our advertising partners, as it serves to engender high quality,
unique leads. Potential users who reside in households with multiple people are
recommended to share an account.
We do not link aggregate user data with personally identifiable information.
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. If your personally identifiable information
changes, you may update it by making the necessary edits.
There is no way to deactivate an account; if you no longer wish to remain a part
of FreeElmos.com, simply stop logging in to your account. FreeElmos.com will
not share your information.
The security of your personal information is important to us. We follow
generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal information
submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. However, no
method of transmission over the internet, or method of electronic storage, is
100% secure. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to
protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes to this
privacy statement, witch links to this page appearing on nearly every page
of the site, including the homepage, and any other pages we deem
appropriate so that you are aware of what information we collect, how we use
it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it.
We reserve the right to modify this privacy statement at any time, so please
review it frequently. If we make material changes to this policy, we will
notify you here, by email, or by means of a notice on our web page.
You may contact us regarding this Privacy Policy through the Customer Service
form on the website.
