Your California Privacy Rights
-
This Privacy Policy covers how MemoryMedallion.com, Inc. (collectively, "MemoryMedallion.com", "we", "us", or "our") and all of its associated Web sites, products, and services (collectively, the "Services") treats user or personally identifiable information that the Services collect and receive. If, however, you are accessing this Privacy Policy from a Web site operated in conjunction with one of our affiliates (“Affiliates”), the privacy policy of the Affiliate will govern unless such policy states otherwise.
-
Subject to the above, this Privacy Policy does not apply to the practices of companies that MemoryMedallion.com does not own, operate or control, or to people that it does not employ or manage.
In general, you can visit the Site without telling us who you are or revealing any information about yourself. MemoryMedallion.com does not collect personally identifiable information about individuals, except when specifically and knowingly provided by such individuals on interactive areas of the Site. “Personally Identifiable Information” is information that can be used to uniquely identify, contact, or locate a single person, such as name, postal address, e-mail address, phone number, and credit card number, among other information, and that is not otherwise publicly available. Any posting made while using the Site and Services, and any other information that can be viewed by the public and therefore is not considered “personal information” or “Personally Identifiable Information” and is not the type of information covered by this Privacy Policy.
-
Personally Identifiable Information.
-
Examples of Personally Identifiable Information we collect include name, postal address, e-mail address, credit card number and related information, and phone number. With respect to certain Services, we also collect your date of birth, social networking profile picture and the date of birth and date of death for the deceased person. We also maintain a record of all information that you submit to us, including e-mail and other correspondence. We may collect Personally Identifiable Information when you register to receive alerts or offerings, sponsor, access or submit information in connection with certain Services, post other content on the Site, purchase products or other services, opt-in to receive special offers and discounts from us and our selected partners or participate in other activities offered or administered by MemoryMedallion.com.
-
We may also collect Personally Identifiable Information about your transactions with us and with some of our business partners. This information might include information necessary to process payments due to us from you, such as your credit card number.
-
We do not intentionally collect Personally Identifiable Information about children under the age of 13. Please see the section on “Children’s Privacy” below.
-
Other Anonymous Information.
-
Like most websites, MemoryMedallion.com also receives and records information on our server logs from your browser automatically and through the use of electronic tools such as cookies. Our server logs automatically receive and record information from your browser (including, for example, your IP address, and the page(s) you visit). The information gathered through these methods is not “personally identifiable;” i.e., it cannot be used to uniquely identify, contact, or locate a single person.

We will use your information only as permitted by law, and subject to the terms of our Privacy Policy;

Use of Personally Identifiable Information:

-
We may disclose Personally Identifiable Information about you under the following circumstances:
-
In the course of operating our business, it may be necessary or appropriate for us to provide access to your Personally Identifiable Information to others such as our service providers, contractors, select vendors and Affiliates so that we can operate the Site and our business. Where practical, we will seek to obtain confidentiality agreements consistent with this Privacy Policy and that limit others’ use or disclosure of the information you have shared.
-
We may share your Personally Identifiable Information if we are required to do so by law or we in good faith believe that such action is necessary to: (1) comply with the law or with legal process (such as pursuant to court order, subpoena, or a request by law enforcement officials); (2) protect, enforce, and defend our Terms of Use, rights and property; (3) protect against misuse or unauthorized use of this Site; or (4) protect the personal safety or property of our users or the public (among other things, this means that if you provide false information or attempt to pose as someone else, information about you may be disclosed as part of any investigation into your actions.)

Certain information that we collect automatically or with electronic tools (such as cookies) is used to anonymously track and measure user traffic to this Site and to enhance your experience on this Site. For example:
-
IP Addresses/Session Information. We occasionally may obtain IP addresses from users depending upon how you access our Site. IP addresses, browser, and session information may be used for various purposes, including to help administer this Site and diagnose and prevent service or other technology problems related to this Site. This information also may be used to estimate the total number of users visiting the Site from specific geographical areas, to help determine which users have access privileges to certain content or services that we offer, and to monitor and prevent fraud and abuse. IP addresses are not linked to Personally Identifiable Information.
-
Cookies. A cookie is a small amount of data that often includes an anonymous unique identifier that is sent to your browser from a website’s computers and stored on your computer’s hard drive. You can configure your browser to accept cookies, reject them, or notify you when a cookie is set. If you reject cookies, you may not be able to use our Services that require you to sign in, or to take full advantage of all our offerings.

-
keep track of preferences you specify while you are using the Site;
-
estimate and report our total audience size and traffic;

conduct research to improve the content and services provided on the Site.
We let other entities that show advertisements on some of our web pages set and access their cookies on your computer. Other entities’ use of their cookies is subject to their own privacy policies and not this Privacy Policy. Advertisers or other entities do not have access to our cookies.
-
We may share anonymous information aggregated to measure the number of visits, average time spent on the site, pages viewed, etc. with our partners, advertisers and others.

5. Privacy Alert: Your Site Postings Generally Are Accessible to the Public |
-
Your own use of the Site may disclose personal information or Personally Identifiable Information to the public. For example:
-
This Site makes submissions, and other postings to our Services available for viewing by all our visitors unless the sponsor or host of a Service selects a privacy setting that restricts public access. Please remember that any information disclosed on a non-restricted Service becomes public information and may be collected and used by others without our knowledge. You therefore should exercise caution when disclosing any personal information or Personally Identifiable Information in these forums.
-
When you post a message to any message board, blog, or other public forum on the Site, your user ID or alias that you are posting under may be visible to other users, and you have the ability to post a message that may include personal information.
-
If you post Personally Identifiable Information online that is accessible to the public, you may receive unsolicited messages from other parties in return. Such activities are beyond the control of MemoryMedallion.com and the coverage of this Privacy Policy. Please be careful and responsible whenever you are online. In addition, although we employ technology and software designed to minimize spam sent to users and unsolicited, automatic posts to message boards, blogs, or other public forums on the Site (like the CAPTCHA word verification you see on email and registration forms), we cannot ensure such measures to be 100% reliable or satisfactory.
-
MemoryMedallion.com does not intentionally collect from or maintain Personally Identifiable Information of children under the age of 13, nor do we offer any content targeted to such children.
-
In the event that MemoryMedallion.com becomes aware that a user of the Site is under the age of 13, the following additional privacy terms and notices apply:
-
Prior to collecting any Personally Identifiable Information about a child that MemoryMedallion.com has become aware is under the age of 13, MemoryMedallion.com will make reasonable efforts to contact the child’s parent, to inform the parent about the types of information MemoryMedallion.com will collect, how it will be used, and under what circumstances it will be disclosed, and to obtain consent from the child's parent to collection and use of such information.
-
Although MemoryMedallion.com will apply these children's privacy terms whenever it becomes aware that a user who submits Personally Identifiable Information is less than 13 years old, no method is foolproof. MemoryMedallion.com strongly encourages parents and guardians to supervise their children's online activities and consider using parental control tools available from online services and software manufacturers to help provide a child-friendly online environment. These tools also can prevent children from disclosing online their name, address, and other personal information without parental permission.
-
Personally Identifiable Information collected from children may include any of the information defined above as Personally Identifiable Information with respect to general users of the Site and may be used by MemoryMedallion.com for the same purposes. Except as necessary to process a child's requests or orders placed with advertisers or merchants featured on the Site, MemoryMedallion.com does not rent, sell, barter or give away any lists containing a child's Personally Identifiable Information for use by any outside company.
-
A child's parent or legal guardian may request MemoryMedallion.com to provide a description of the Personally Identifiable Information that MemoryMedallion.com has collected from the child, as well as instruct MemoryMedallion.com to cease further use, maintenance and collection of Personally Identifiable Information from the child.
-
If a child voluntarily discloses his or her name, e-mail address or other personally-identifying information on chat areas, bulletin boards or other forums or public posting areas, such disclosures may result in unsolicited messages from other parties.
MemoryMedallion.com are the sole owner(s) of the information collected on this Site.
The security and confidentiality of your Personally Identifiable Information is extremely important to us. We have implemented technical, administrative, and physical security measures to protect guest information from unauthorized access and improper use. From time to time, we review our security procedures in order to consider appropriate new technology and methods. Please be aware though that, despite our best efforts, no security measures are perfect or impenetrable, and no data transmissions over the web can be guaranteed 100% secure. Consequently, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us and you do so at your own risk.
You may modify and correct Personally Identifiable Information provided directly to MemoryMedallion.com in connection with the Services, if necessary. MemoryMedallion.com offers users the following options for updating information:
