IMSOTHANKFUL.COM also may collect non-personally-identifiable information including IP address, aggregate user data, and browser type, from users and visitors to the site.

We treat your communications with others using our site, i.e. Thank Yous, as private correspondence between the sender and the recipient and will not disclose the contents of any greeting other than to the intended recipient, except under the specific situations outlined in Sharing and Disclosure of Information IMSOTHANKFUL.COM Collects, below. Under normal circumstances, we will not monitor or edit the contents of the online communications you send using the site. On occasion, however, we may need to view your message in connection with the technical processing of your communication or the maintenance of our network. Also, if you ask one of our customer service representatives to help you send Thank Yous or to verify that a Thank You was sent, that representative will be able to access all information about the Thank You, including the recipient's e-mail address and the message.
From time to time, IMSOTHANKFUL.COM or a partner may sponsor a promotion, sweepstake or contest on IMSOTHANKFUL.COM.

We have no way of distinguishing the age of individuals who access our Website, and so we carry out the same Privacy Policy for individuals of all ages.

Changes in Our Privacy Policy
From time to time we may make changes to our privacy policy If we make changes, we will post them on our site to make users aware of what the changes are so users will always be aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and when we may disclose it. A User is bound by any minor changes to the policy when he or she uses the site after those changes have been posted If, however, we are going to use users' personally identifiable information in a manner materially different from that stated at the time of collection we will notify by posting a notice on our Web site for 30 days.

If you have any questions about this privacy statement, the practices of this site, or your dealings with this Web site, please contact us at: info@imsothankful.com.
Even the best policy can't protect your online privacy and security in all circumstances. Your best protection is to understand the limits to privacy on the Internet and use common sense in all of your on-line activities. Be aware that e-mail is an inherently insecure form of communication. Remember that third parties are sometimes able to illegally intercept your unencrypted messages, including Thank Yous sent via IMSOTHANKFUL.COM. Beware of scams in which persons unknown to you request your user name, password, or credit card information. Make sure you verify the identity of anyone asking for personal information. Always monitor your children's on-line activities and educate them as to the rules for safe Internet use.
