SweepstakesEveryday.com, a property of SilverCarrot Inc.,
has created this Privacy Policy to demonstrate our firm
commitment to your privacy and the protection of your
personally identifiable information at the SweepstakesEveryday.com
website (the “Website”). As part of our business,
we collect and, in some instances, may disclose information
about you - but only as set forth in this Privacy Policy.
To better protect your privacy, we provide this notice
explaining our personal information collection and use
practices and the choices that you can make concerning
the use of your personal information. This Privacy Policy
also applies to individuals that have agreed to receive
e-mail marketing from SweepstakesEveryday.com or one of
our advertising partners, whether at the Website, via
e-mail, on third-party websites or otherwise.
Information Collected and Use of Your Information
For each visitor to the Website, our servers automatically
recognize only the visitor’s domain name, but not
the e-mail address (unless requested and supplied by the
visitor as a part of registration). You must register
to become a member in order to qualify to receive the
products and services available through our website.
As part of our on-going efforts to ensure the best possible
experience for all visitors to the Website, we collect
data from browsers to aggregate statistical information.
This includes the type of browser being used, its level
of HTML support and what platform it is on. This Privacy
Policy also applies to visitors to the Website that have
agreed to receive e-mail marketing from SweepstakesEveryday.com,
but have not separately registered to become a SweepstakesEveryday.com
member. The personal profile information that you submit
to SweepstakesEveryday.com remains your property, but by
submitting that information to SweepstakesEveryday.com,
its partners including, but not limited to, SilverNGold,

Redcosmos, Greystarrysky, Goldgeyser, Bicyclebear, Vastgreenfields,
Hippohelper and/or any and all other affiliates, you grant
SweepstakesEveryday.com the right to use that information
for marketing purposes.
When visitors elect to become members of SweepstakesEveryday.com,
we request that they provide additional, personally-identifiable
information. This includes name, address, e-mail address,
telephone number, age bracket, day and month of birth.
All registrants may receive e-mail confirming their registration,
and subsequent correspondence. If you do not want to receive
e-mail from us in the future, please let us know by using
the unsubscribe option on the bottom of every email. Certain
information, such as your e-mail address, is collected
in order to, among other functions, verify your identity
in the future within our database. When you select to
receive information about offerings from a third party
company during the registration process, we will share
your personal information with that third party company
to carry out your information request. SweepstakesEveryday.com
may also use such information to directly market certain
offers to you (via e-mail, direct mail and/or telemarketing),
to monitor compliance with our Terms and Conditions and
for content improvement and feedback purposes. We may
sell the personal information that you supply to us and
we may join together with other businesses to bring selected
retail opportunities to our members. These businesses
may include, but are not limited to: (a) providers of
direct marketing services and applications, including
lookup and reference, data enhancement, suppression and
validation; (b) e-mail marketers; and (c) telemarketers.
We may also employ other companies and individuals to
perform certain functions on our behalf. Examples include
sending direct and electronic mail, removing duplicate
information from customer lists, analyzing data, and providing
marketing analysis. These agents have access to our members’
personal information as needed to perform their functions
for SweepstakesEveryday.com, but we do not permit them to
use our members’ personal information for other
purposes.
SweepstakesEveryday.com reserves the right to release current
or past member information in the event SweepstakesEveryday.com
believes that the membership is being or has been used
in violation of the Website’s terms and conditions,
or to commit unlawful acts, if the information is subpoenaed,
if SweepstakesEveryday.com is sold or acquired, or when
SweepstakesEveryday.com deems it necessary or appropriate.
By agreeing to these conditions, you hereby consent to
disclosure of any record or communication to any third
party, when SweepstakesEveryday.com, in its sole discretion,
determines the disclosure to be appropriate including,
without limitation, sharing your e-mail address with other
third-parties for suppression purposes in compliance with
the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003, as amended from time to time,
and Federal Trade Commission enabling regulations.
In addition, by registering at the Website, you agree
that such act constitutes an inquiry and/or application
for purposes of the Amended Telemarketing Sales Rule (16
CFR §310 et seq.), as amended from time to time (the
“Rule”). Notwithstanding that your telephone
number may be listed at the Federal Trade Commission’s
Do-Not-Call List, we retain the right to contact you via
telemarketing in accordance with the Rule.
From time to time, we may receive personal information
about you from outside sources and add it to your existing
registration information on file at the Website. We do
this to improve personalization of our services (for example,
providing better newsletter content, advertising and/or
special offers that we think may be of interest you).
We may also collect other information such as your IP
address, domain names, access times and referring third
party website addresses. This information is used by SweepstakesEveryday.com
for the operation of the Website, to maintain the quality
of our offerings, and to provide general aggregate statistics
regarding SweepstakesEveryday.com. Such information is not
personally identifiable.
We also collect information such as the identification
of the server that your computer is logged onto and whether
you opened a SweepstakesEveryday.com e-mail message delivered
to you. We also may compare our member list to various
lists received from other third party companies, in an
effort to avoid sending identical or similar e-mail messages
to our members.
When you obtain any product or service directly from
SweepstakesEveryday.com, we collect certain financial information,
such as your credit card number, credit card expiration
date and billing address. Financial Information that you
disclose to SweepstakesEveryday.com is used to confirm your
age and to bill you for shipping our products and services.
To the extent that customer credit card-specific information
is collected by SweepstakesEveryday.com, said information
will be kept in confidence and will not be shared with
any third parties (other than consumer credit agencies)
without your prior informed consent. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, SweepstakesEveryday.com reserves the right to
share with third parties the fact that we have credit
card information on file for specific customers but we
will not share the specific credit card information with
third parties without your prior informed consent.
