We urge exercising caution when disclosing information on public message boards or discussion forums. GIFTCADEAU may also request certain information using online, mobile or direct mail order forms for products and services. On the activation, registration and order forms, we may collect contact information, demographic information, and method of payment and if applicable, a credit card number and any other information that your Organization wishes to capture. We may also collect information about you in surveys or for sweepstakes and contests on the website and information about the searches you perform and the pages you visit on the giftcadeau.ca site. GIFTCADEAU may also monitor, on an anonymous aggregate basis, patterns of use in connection with emails that it sends out, including which links are clicked on in our email and mobile communications, so that we may use such information to better personalize the content of the Program. All such information will be protected in accordance with our Privacy Policy. We may also automatically collect your Internet Protocol address to help diagnose problems and for system administration. GIFTCADEAU and its Organizations use the information collected from you in accordance with this Privacy Policy. Information we collect is used to customize your experience with our website.

In addition, we may report aggregate information to our advertisers. Such aggregate information will not individually identify any user.
3. What choices you have regarding the collection, use and distribution of your information.
