Privacy Policy

How does iGive.com use the information collected?

We will be utilizing your e-mail address to send you our newsletters and to alert you to special opportunities and offers. If you have not withdrawn permission (opted-out), we will also forward newsletters from your cause to you, and will let your cause know that you are supporting the cause with your online shopping.

We will disclose information that we gather only in the aggregate in order to analyze our usage and attract advertisers, corporate sponsors or merchant affiliates. We will take great care and caution to keep whatever information we gather safe.

Our referral program rewards the causes when members refer new shoppers to iGive.com through their personalized Tell-a-Friend links. If you join through such a link, your name is revealed to your referrer only if you give permission during registration. No other information is shared or revealed with the individual who referred you, or with any other party. If you choose to use our referral service to tell a friend about our site, we will ask you for your friend's name and e-mail address. We will automatically send your friend a one-time e-mail inviting him or her to visit the site. iGive.com stores this information for the sole purpose of sending this one-time e-mail and tracking the success of our referral program. Your friend may contact us to request that we remove this information from our database.

Please note that when a member visits or shops at our advertisers or with an iGive.com merchant or in the iGive.com Mall, they are dealing with another company, not iGive.com. This means that you enter into a relationship with that company / Web site separately from iGive.com. Any information you share with that advertiser or merchant is subject to their policies and practices, not to iGive.com's policies or practices. Members are encouraged to read the privacy policies of our merchant partners.

We and certain of our vendors use 'cookies' to make visiting our site and visiting iGive.com merchants a better, easier experience.

This information allows us to better understand which of our e-mails are resulting in traffic to iGive.com and our merchants. Information gained through pixel tracking is only shared in aggregate; we do not share personally identifiable information gathered through pixel tracking.
