We respect and are committed to protecting your privacy. That is why we have adopted this Privacy Policy. This Privacy Policy lets you know how your personal information is processed and used. We promise that we will take steps to use your personal information only in ways that are compatible with this Privacy Policy. The following policies are only in effect for the Web pages, newsletters, discussion lists and opt-in announcement lists owned and operated by Free Ecards, (Free Ecards includes all Web sites and certain other Internet media properties hyper linked from the Free Ecards home page.) The following discloses our Privacy Policy.

What information are you collecting and how are you collecting it?

Every computer connected to the Internet is given a domain name and a set of numbers, that serve as that computer's "Internet Protocol" IP address. When a visitor requests a page from any Web site within the Free Ecards , our Web servers automatically recognize that visitor's domain name and IP address. The domain name and IP address reveal nothing personal about you other than the IP address from which you have accessed our site. We use this information to examine our traffic in aggregate, and to investigate misuse of the Free Ecards , its users, or to cooperate with law enforcement. See also Will you disclose the information you collect to outside third parties? We do not collect and evaluate this information for specific individuals. Our Web servers do not automatically record e-mail addresses of the visitors.

What are cookies?

From time to time, Free Ecards or its advertisers may send a "cookie" to your computer. A cookie is a small piece of data that is sent to your Internet browser from a Web server and stored on your computer's hard drive. A cookie can't read data off of your computer hard disk or read cookie files created by other Web sites. Cookies do not damage your system. We use cookies to identify which areas of Free Ecards you have visited or customized, so the next time you visit, those pages may be readily accessible. Our advertisers may also use cookies to ascertain how many times you've seen an advertisement. Our advertisers and we may use this information to better personalize the content, banners, and promotions that you see on our site. You can choose whether to accept cookies by changing the settings of your Internet browser. You can reset your browser to refuse all cookies, or allow your browser to show you when a cookie is being sent. If you choose not to accept these cookies, your experience at our Site and other Web sites may be diminished and some features may not work as intended.

How do you use single-pixel gifs?

Free Ecards and its advertisers may use single-pixel gif images, sometimes referred to as web bugs or web beacons, to count Web page accesses and gather some general statistical information. Free Ecards does not gather personal information through the use of these images. Our advertisers may use single-pixel gifs that can track personal information from cookies that may have been previously placed on a user's computer by an advertiser.

What information do you collect when I register for something?

Free-ecards.ws does not collect any user specific identifiable information other than that given by a user when sending an ecard. We do not use this information for any purpose other than to allow us to send the email or alert the sender to any problems with the ecard. We don't resell names or any individual data.

Free-ecards.ws collects some non user specific information such as the type of browser and operating system used. This information is used to assist us internally to provide the best site design and format for our users. The information is not shared with anyone outside of Free-ecards.ws. If you have any questions about our privacy policy, please send us a note.

Some advertisers on the site may use cookies for the purpose of identifying unique individuals to track banner exposures or when someone clicks on their banners. As far as Free-ecards.ws is aware this information is only collected to allow the banner owners to ensure they only count unique clicks..

Will you disclose the information you collect to outside third parties?

Free Ecards will disclose personal information and/or an IP address, when required by law or in the good-faith belief that such action is necessary to:

Free Ecards uses reasonable precautions to keep the information disclosed to us secure. Free Ecards reserves the right to transfer all such information in connection with the sale of all or part of Free Ecards's capital stock or assets.

We are not responsible for such third party privacy policies or how they treat information about their users See below, What else should I know about my privacy when online?

What else should I know about my privacy when online?

The Free Ecards contains many hyperlinks to third party Web sites. The Free Ecards also contains advertisements of third parties. Free Ecards is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such third party Web sites or advertisers. Free Ecards does not share any of the individual personal information you provide Free Ecards with the third parties to which Free Ecards links, except as stated elsewhere within this Privacy Policy, although Free Ecards may share general, aggregate data with such third parties (such as how many people use our site). Please check with those Web sites to determine their privacy policy.

Please keep in mind that whenever you voluntarily disclose personal information online - for example through e-mail, discussion lists, or elsewhere - that information can be collected and used by others.

Ultimately, you are solely responsible for maintaining the secrecy of your personal information. Please be careful and responsible whenever you're online.
