If you do not wish to allow us to use cookies, please disable them in your web browser. Certain areas of our Website will not function without the use of cookies.
Our primary purpose in collecting and using your personal information is to provide you with a safe and effective way to purchase vouchers in an online environment. To do this, we may use personal information collected through the Website for the specific purposes for which the information was collected, to process purchases and sales of products offered via the Website, to contact you regarding products and services offered by us, our parent, subsidiary and other related companies and our trusted affiliates, independent contractors and business partners, and otherwise to enhance your experience with us and such affiliates, independent contractors and business partners. We may also use information collected through the Website for research regarding the effectiveness of the Website and the business planning, marketing, advertising and sales efforts of us, our trusted affiliates, independent contractors and business partners. If you ever receive information or communication from us that is unwanted, please follow the unsubscribe instructions provided in any of our communications.
The most common usage of the Website is to purchase a voucher to a third party business. We act as a facilitator between you and a third party, enabling you to purchase a voucher for that third party business. We reserve the right to share your full name, email address, city and state with third party businesses or organizations for which you have purchased a voucher. For example, if you use the Website to purchase a $50 voucher to Jack’s Steakhouse, we reserve the right to pass along your name, email address, city and state to Jack’s Steakhouse. Once information is passed to a third party business for which you have made a purchase, you are subject to their privacy policy. If you are uncertain of how a restaurant or business will use your personal information, please seek out a privacy policy on their website or contact them directly before making your purchase. We are not liable for the use or misuse of your personal information by third party businesses for which you have purchased a voucher.
We may disclose personal information collected from you to our parent, subsidiary and other related companies, trusted affiliates, independent contractors and business partners who will use the information for the purposes outlined above, as necessary to provide the services offered through the Website and to provide the Website itself, and for the specific purposes for which the information was collected.

It is necessary for us to collect payment card and personal information in order to authorize the release of funds from your payment card provider.

Despite our very best efforts to keep your information secure, third parties may attempt to maliciously access our system or intercept your information. Due to these outside threats, we cannot guarantee that your personal information will remain private 100% of the time.
If your personal information changes, or if you no longer desire to receive non-account specific information from us, we will endeavor to provide a way to correct, update and/or remove your previously-provided personal information.
