Overview. The information we gather generally falls into one of two categories: (1) information (for example, your name, address and credit card number) that you voluntarily supply when you register with our Service, initiate transactions on the Service (such as buying coupons (as defined below) in connection with deals offered through the Service, or when you participate in the features we may offer through the Service (such as comments posted on a blog, discussion group, or other social networking features on the Service), and (2) information gathered on usage patterns and preferences as visitors navigate through our Service. In some cases, one of our agents or Affiliates (as defined below) may collect the information on our behalf. Third party Service Providers (as defined below) that provide all or some of the services available through this Service also may be gathering the same kinds of information.
Registration Information. To make use of certain features available through the Service (such as to purchase coupons or to participate in some social networking features we may offer) you will need to register and to provide certain information, such as your name and email address as part of the registration process. We may also ask you to provide us with your age, sex, and zip code, and we might request information on your interest in sports, personal finance, the performing arts, and the like.) The information you supply will help us to offer you more personalized features, to tailor our Service to your interests and make them more useful to you.
The more you tell us about yourself, the more value we can offer you. Supplying such information is entirely voluntary, but if you don’t supply the information we request, we may be unable to provide you with services we make available to other visitors to our Service.
Billing Information. In order to purchase a Voucher through the Service, you will need to provide us with billing information, including a credit card number, so we can process your payment. We will not store your credit card number on our systems. Accordingly, you will need to enter it on the payment page of the Service each time you purchase a Voucher.

Their use of the information may be subject to the terms of their respective privacy policies, which you can find on their websites.

We also may take the information you provide and aggregate it with data from all the other people that use this Service and associated services. Then we will use that pool of information to inform our Merchants and prospective Merchants about our audience without identifying you personally. For example, we’ll be able to say to a Merchant: “We have 3,470 members in this Postcode code,” which happens to be your location.
