Privacy Policy

Effective and Last Updated: October 15th, 2018

This website is owned and operated by Couptopia, Inc. (“Couptopia” or “us” or “we”). Your privacy is very important to us and we are committed to protecting your privacy while you interact with the content, products and services on this site (the “Website” or “Site”).

To better protect your privacy we provide this notice explaining our online information practices and the choices you can make about the way your information is collected and used. To make this notice easy to find, we make it available on our homepage and at every point where personally identifiable information may be requested. This Privacy Policy applies to this Site only and does not apply to other websites to which we link. You agree that your use of the Site signifies your assent to this Privacy Policy.

1. The Information We Collect

We collect two types of information from you: i) personally identifiable information that you voluntarily provide to us (e.g. through a voluntary registration process, sign-ups or emails); and ii) non-personally identifiable information that is derived through automated tracking mechanisms.

1.1 Personally Identifiable Information

Personally identifiable information is information that identifies a specific individual, such as a name, email address, or telephone number. We collect personally identifiable information when you choose to use certain features of the Site, including: i) making purchases, ii) consenting to receive email about upcoming deals, iii) registering and creating an account on our Site. When you choose to use these additional features, we require you to provide your “Contact Information” in addition to other personal information that may be required to complete a transaction such as your billing and shipping addresses and credit card information. Occasionally, we may also request information such as your shopping preferences and demographics that will help us better serve you and our other users in the future. We do not collect personally identifiable information about you except when you specifically provide such information to us on a voluntary basis.

We protect the security of your sensitive information by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which establishes an encrypted link that ensures that all data remains private.

1.2 Non-Personally Identifiable Information

Non-Personally identifiable information is information that does not identify a specific individual. Like many other websites, our Site may use "cookies" and other tracking technologies to enable us to collection information relevant to how our Site is being used and to simplify and streamline the interactions you have on our Site. Collected information may include, but not be limited to, your internet service provider, date and time of visits to our Site, time spent on our Site, and the sites visited immediately before or after our Site. Most browsers allow you to control cookies, including whether or not to accept them and how to remove them. If a user's system is idle for a defined time, the cookie will expire, forcing the user to sign in again to continue their session. This prevents unauthorized access to the user's information while they are away from their computer.

You may set most browsers to notify you if you receive a cookie, or you may choose to block cookies with your browser, but please note that if you choose to erase or block your cookies, you will need to re-enter your original user ID and password to gain access to certain parts of the Site.

1.3 Referrals

You may choose to use our referral service to invite other people to join Couptopia or our gift buying service to purchase a deal for someone else. We store the names and email addresses that you provide so that the respondents can receive a one-time email inviting them to our Website or informing them of the gift that you purchased for them. Couptopia does not sell these email addresses or use them to send any other communication besides this one-time email. Recipients of invitations or gifts may contact us at info@couptopia.com to request removal of their information from our database.

2. The Way We Use Information

We only use your personal information for the original purposes it was given. Your personal information will not be sold or otherwise transferred to unaffiliated third parties without your approval at the time of collection.

We will not disclose, use, give or sell any personal information to unaffiliated third parties for any purposes other than to our suppliers and other third parties who need to know in order to deliver services on behalf of Couptopia unless required to do so by law. Further, we reserve the right to contact you regarding matters relevant to the underlying service provided and/or the information collected.

Please note that personally identifiable information is used to provide you with a more enjoyable, convenient online experience and to help us identify and/or provide information, products or services that may be of interest to you. We use your personally identifiable information to support and enhance your use of the Site and its features, including without limitation: fulfilling your order; providing customer service; tracking email notices to you; and otherwise supporting your use of the Site.

We may permit certain trusted third parties to track usage, analyze data such as the source address that a page request is coming from, your IP address or domain name, the date and time of the page request, the referring Web site (if any) and other parameters in the URL. This is collected in order to better understand our Web site usage, and enhance the performance of services to maintain and operate the Site and certain features on the Site. We may use third parties to host the Site; operate various features available on the Site; send emails; analyze data; provide search results and links and assist in fulfilling your orders.

We may transfer personally identifiable information as an asset in connection with service at affiliated parties (e.g., merchants) in interest of best serving our customers and merchants. Merchants offer promotions on our Site to bring in new customers and in many cases to collect contact information. Some promotions may, as part of your purchase, opt you in to receiving email contact directly from the merchant in the interest of better serving you. Promotions will clearly state in the You Should Know section of a specific promotion that your purchase will opt you in to receive email communications from the merchant.

We may transfer personally identifiable information as an asset in connection with a proposed or actual merger or sale (including any transfers made as part of an insolvency or bankruptcy proceeding) involving all or part of our business or as part of a corporate reorganization, stock sale or other change in control.

Couptopia may disclose Contact Information in special cases where we have reason to believe that disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be violating our terms and conditions of use or may be causing injury or interference with our rights, property, our customers or anyone who could be harmed by such activities.

You will receive notice when your personally identifiable information might be provided to any third party for any reason other than as set forth in this Privacy Policy, and you will have an opportunity to request that we not share such information.

We use non-identifying and aggregate information to better design our Website and for business and administrative purposes. We may also use or share with third parties for any purpose aggregated data that contains no personally identifiable information.

3. Our Commitment to Data Security

We are committed to protecting the information we receive from you. We take appropriate security measures to protect your information against unauthorized access to or unauthorized alteration, disclosure or destruction of data. To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use of information, we maintain appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information and data stored on our system. While no computer system is completely secure, we believe the measures we have implemented reduce the likelihood of security problems to a level appropriate to the type of data involved. However, we cannot guarantee or warrant the security of any information you provide to us and you transmit such information to us at your own risk.

4. Accessing and Updating Your Personal Information and Preferences

We provide mechanisms for updating and correcting your personal information for many of our services. You may modify or remove any of your personal information at any time by logging into your account and accessing features such as edit and account.

With the exception of necessary email communications (e.g., user account information, purchases), if you receive an email from Couptopia and would prefer not to receive such communications in the future, you can do so by following the instructions in the emails. In addition, you may send an email to info@couptopia.com. We will make reasonable efforts to implement your opt-out requests promptly, but you may still receive communications from us for up to ten business days as we process your request.

5. Terms of Use

Please also visit our Terms of Use section establishing the use, disclaimers, and limitations of liability governing the use of our Website.

6. Changes of Our Privacy Policy

Couptopia reserves the right to change this Privacy Policy from time to time at its sole discretion. If at some point in the future, there is a change to our Privacy Policy, unless we obtain your express consent, such change will only apply to information collected after the revised Privacy Policy took effect. Your continued use of this site indicates your assent to the Privacy Policy as posted.
