Collection of Information by Third-Party Sites and Sponsors
eCardMountain.com contains links to other sites
whose information practices may be different than ours. Visitors
should consult the other sites' privacy policies, as we have no
control over information that is submitted to or collected by websites
that are not our own.
From time to time eCardMountain.com may offer contests,
sweepstakes, promotions or deals that are sponsored by or co-sponsored
with identified third parties. By virtue of their sponsorship, these
third parties may obtain personally identifiable information that
visitors voluntarily submit. After such submissions, eCardMountain.com
has no control over third-party sponsors' use of this information.
eCardMountain.com will provide notice if third-party
sponsors will so obtain such information. eCardMountain.com
may use reputable third parties to present or serve the advertisements
that you may see at our web pages and to conduct research about
the advertisements. Our privacy policy does not cover any use of
information by such third parties or the methods by which third-parties
collect that information (e.g., cookies, web beacons and clear gifs).
Third-party Ad Serving
We use third-party advertising companies to serve ads when you
visit our site. These companies may use information (not including
your name, address, email address or telephone number) about your
visit to eCardMountain.com in order to provide advertisements
about goods and services that may be of interest to you. In the
course of serving advertisements to the eCardMountain.com

a unique "cookie" on your browser.
Cookies
To enhance your experience with our sites, many of our web pages
use "cookies." Cookies are text files we place in your
computer's browser to store your preferences. Cookies, by themselves,
do not tell us your e-mail address or other personally identifiable
information unless you choose to provide this information to us
by, for example, registering at one of our websites. However, once
you choose to furnish eCardMountain.com with personally
identifiable information, this information may be linked to the
data stored in the cookie. We use cookies to understand site usage
and to improve the content and offerings at eCardMountain.com.
For example, we may use cookies to personalize your experience at
our web pages (e.g. to recognize you by name when you return to
our site), save your password in password-protected areas, and enable
you to use shopping carts on our sites. We also may use cookies
to offer you products, programs, or services. Small pieces of code
called "web beacons" or "clear gifs" may be
used to collect anonymous and aggregate advertising metrics, such
as counting page views, promotion views, or advertising responses.
These "web beacons" may be used to deliver cookies that
conform to our cookie policy.
Our Commitment to Security
We have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial
procedures to safeguard and prevent unauthorized access, to maintain
data security, and correctly use the information we collect online.
