WHAT TYPES OF INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT ABOUT YOU?
We collect personal information and non-personal information through
the Site. Personal information is information that identifies you as
an individual. Non-personal information is aggregated information,
demographic information, IP addresses and any other information that
does not reveal your specific identity.
Personal information. We may collect the
following types of personal information:
-
Information provided by you when ordering credit-related products
through the Site. For example, you will be required to submit
personal information such as your name, address, social security
number, date of birth, telephone number and e-mail address.
-
Credit and debit card account information collected from you or your
credit reports when enrolling in our card registry product. For
example, we will collect credit and debit card account information
from you on our sites, over the phone, and from your credit reports
from the three national credit reporting companies in order to
cancel the cards per your request in the event that they are lost or
stolen.
-
When you make a purchase through the Site, we may collect your
credit card number or other payment account number, billing address
and other information related to such purchase (collectively,
"Payment Information") from you.
-
Other information we collect, such as city of birth and mother's
maiden name, is used to verify your identity in the event you forget
your login information required for our online products.
-
Information you provide us through customer service correspondence
and general feedback.
Non-Personal information. When you visit the
Site, we may collect non-personal information, such as a catalog of
the Site pages you visit. Non-personal information is generally
collected through the Site from the following sources: server log
files, environmental variables, cookies, pixel tags and other similar
technologies and information that you voluntarily provide.
-
Server Log Files. Your Internet Protocol (IP)
address is a number that is automatically assigned to the computer
that you are using by your Internet Service Provider (ISP). This
number is identified and logged automatically in our server log
files whenever you visit the Site, along with the time(s) of your
visit(s) and the page(s) that you visited. We use your IP address,
and the IP addresses of all users, for purposes such as calculating
Site usage levels, helping diagnose problems with the Site's
servers, and administering the Site. Collecting IP addresses is
standard practice on the Internet and is done automatically by many
websites.
-
Environmental Variables. We and our service
providers may also collect certain environmental variables, such as
computer type (Windows or Macintosh), screen resolution, OS version,
Internet browser, and Internet browser version. These environmental
variables are collected by most browsers, and can be used to
optimize your experience on the Site.
-
Cookies and Similar Technologies. We and our
service providers may use "cookies" or similar technologies on the
Site. Cookies are data that a web server transfers to an
individual's computer for recordkeeping purposes. Cookies are an
industry standard used by many websites, and can facilitate your
ongoing access to and use of a particular website; cookies do not
cause damage to your computer systems or files. If you do not want
information collected through the use of cookies, there is a simple
procedure in most browsers that allows you to automatically decline
cookies, or to be given the choice of declining or accepting the
transfer of a particular cookie, or cookies from a particular
website, to your computer. Additionally, please see the "Your
Choices" section below for instructions on how to opt-out of sharing
certain information related to the use of cookies.
-
Pixel Tags. We and our service providers may also
use so-called "pixel tags," "web beacons," "clear GIFs" or similar
means (collectively, "Pixel Tags") in connection
with some Site pages and HTML-formatted e-mail messages to, among
other things, compile aggregate statistics about Site usage and
response rates. A Pixel Tag is an electronic image, often a single
pixel (1x1), that is ordinarily not visible to Site visitors and may
be associated with Cookies on the visitors´ hard drives. Pixel Tags
allow us to count users who have visited certain pages of the Site,
to deliver branded services, to provide online advertising, and to
help determine the effectiveness of promotional or advertising
campaigns. When used in HTML-formatted e-mail messages, Pixel Tags
can tell the sender whether and when the e-mail has been opened.
-
Information That You Voluntarily Provide. We also
collect non-personal information (e.g., your geographic location,
etc.) when you voluntarily provide such information to us. When such
information is not combined with any personal information, such
information is considered to be non-personal information, as it does
not personally identify you or any other user. Additionally, we may
aggregate personal information in a manner such that the end-product
does not personally identify you or any other user of the Site, for
example, by using personal information to calculate the percentage
of our users who have a particular telephone area code. Such
aggregate information is considered non-personal information for
purposes of this Policy.
-
Please note that if we combine any non-personal information with
personal information, the combined information will be treated by us
as personal information as long as it is so combined.
HOW DO WE USE THE INFORMATION COLLECTED?

information we collect in the following ways:
