Privacy Policy.

The following provisions set forth the Privacy Policy of Mint Werx. This Privacy Policy addresses how information is collected and used by Mint Werx. This Privacy Policy does not apply to the practices of companies that Mint Werx does not own or control or to people that Mint Werx does not employ. 

Personally Identifiable Information 

Personally Identifiable Information (PII) is data about you that is personally identifiable. Examples of PII include name, address, email address, credit card number and/or any other information that is not otherwise publicly available. We use this information to provide you with advertisements, to respond to your questions and requests, to provide you with services you requested and to improve the sites, services and offerings. 

Non-Personally Identifiable Information 

Non-Personally Identifiable Information (NPII) data is collected by Mint Werx and used for retargeting. We, and/or one or more of our technology partners, may collect NPII from people who visit the sites. This NPII data is anonymous and can include information such as webpages viewed, date and time of webpage views, domain type, location information associated with the viewer IP address and interactions with an advertisement. Mint Werx uses different methods to collect this NPII data, including cookies and web beacons, and it is stored indefinitely. 

Use of Cookies and Web Beacons 

Cookies are small text files that can store information. There are two types of cookies: session cookies and persistent cookies. Session cookies expire when you close your browser, and persistent cookies stay on your computer until you delete them. 

Mint Werx utilizes a web beacon, which is a transparent 1x1 pixel image for tracking purposes. It may be placed in a site or HTML email to record when the content was loaded. 

Mint Werx may use both session and persistent cookies to customize your web experience and to analyze web traffic. We use cookies and/or web beacons in the delivery of display advertisements to viewers of the sites. By showing how and when visitors use the sites, cookies help us deliver advertisements, identify how many unique users visit us, save user preferences and track user trends and patterns. 

We may use web beacons (single-pixel graphic files also known as “transparent GIFs”) to access cookies and to count users who visit the sites or open our HTML-formatted email messages. This information helps us to improve your experience of the sites, including by improving the delivery of our advertisements and webpages to you and by helping to measure traffic on the sites. Mint Werx uses cookies and/or web beacons to provide a retargeting service. You may “opt out” of the use of our cookies by clearing the web browser cache on any active web browsers. Additionally, you may opt out of retargeting by disabling cookies on your browser. Please note that disabling cookies may diminish the experience of many of the websites you visit. 

California Privacy Rights 

California Civil Code Section 1798.83, also known as the “Shine the Light” law, permits our customers who are California residents to request and obtain from us once a year, free of charge, information about the personal information (if any) we disclosed to third parties for direct marketing purposes in the preceding calendar year. If applicable, this information would include a list of the categories of personal information that was shared and the names and addresses of all third parties with which we shared information in the immediately preceding calendar year. If you would like to have your personal information reviewed or removed, please visit the interactive web form at the bottom of this page or email with your full name and zip code to info@mintwerx.com Upon deletion, a record of your request will be kept for a minimum period of 24 months. 

Location Information 

Mint Werx uses location information in order to provide you with advertisements and promotions that are relevant to your geographic area. We may collect location information (e.g., city and state and/or zip code) that is voluntarily provided by users who wish to view promotions and advertisements near them. In addition, we also use software that allows us to infer general location (e.g., city and state) automatically from a user’s IP address. Also, we may obtain geographical location information from a user’s mobile device or browser. If you want to limit the location information that is collected from a mobile device or browser, many devices and browsers provide functionality to disallow the use of location information. If we are unable to infer your location, and you do not provide it to us, you may see content related to Chicago, Illinois, or other default locations. 

Uses of Information 

We may use any information collected from you via the sites for any purpose related to the sites, including to contact you for customer service purposes, to inform you of important changes/additions to the sites or the services offered over the sites and to send you administrative notices and/or any other communications that we believe may be of interest to you. 

How Information Is Shared 

We may share information that you voluntarily provide to us while on the sites with our clients or with third-party vendors if context is provided on your use of the sites. Our clients are the parties on whose behalf the sites, advertisements or other content have been created or maintained for. For example, we may share your email address, coupon-clipping activity and loyalty identification for that purpose. If you do not want us to share information that you voluntarily provide to us, you should not provide this information to us. 

We may use third-party service providers to target and serve some of the advertisements you see on the sites. We may share technical information, such as type of webpages viewed and categories of interest, from the sites with these third-party service providers for their use in displaying advertisements on the sites. These providers may use their own browser or flash cookies, web beacons and similar technologies to collect technical information (such as IP address, browser type or webpages visited) from users of the sites. These third-party service providers may use that information, sometimes in conjunction with similar information gathered through other websites, to deliver advertisements on the sites and to other websites that participate in the advertising networks of those third-party service providers. 

The data/information collected in connection with the ad serving and targeting on the sites does not identify you personally and does not include your name, address, email address or telephone number, but it may include the IP address of your computer. The use and collection of information by third-party service providers is governed by the relevant third party’s privacy policy and is not covered by our Privacy Policy. 

We may also use aggregate and technical information collected from the sites to report to our clients on the efficacy of their advertising in generating user interest. For example, we may provide information about how many users clicked on each portion of a client’s advertisement, how much time the users spent viewing an advertisement, the users’ IP addresses, browser types and other information that may help the clients improve the websites, services and/or offerings of the clients. 

Sharing With Third Parties for Other Purposes 

Mint Werx may occasionally release information about viewers of the sites if required to do so by law or if, in our business judgment, such disclosure is reasonably necessary: (a) to comply with legal process; (b) to enforce our terms; or (c) to protect the rights, property or personal safety of the sites, us, our affiliates, our officers, directors, employees, representatives, clients, other users and/or the general public. 

We may buy or sell various assets of Mint Werx as the business operations continue to develop. 

Security 

The security of your information is very important to us. All information we gather on the sites is stored on secure servers and our internal systems. However, as effective as the security measures may be, no physical or electronic security system is impenetrable. We cannot and do not guarantee the security of information of the servers or databases of the sites or that information you supply will not be intercepted while being transmitted to us over the internet. 

Children’s Privacy Statement 

Mint Werx does not knowingly collect any personal information from a child under the age of 16 years.
