Last updated: 1st March 2010

Registration Information

Search and Win collects information about you (such as your name, email address, etc.) when you win a prize or register on the website. We use this information to send you your prize and bonus Grand Prize entry offers. Search and Win members can change their address information at any time in their account section.

We ask for your email address if you submit feedback through our feedback form. We use your email address if we need to respond to your comments or questions.

We ask for your email address when you register for Search and Win.

Search and Win also notes and saves information such as IP address and time of day with each search query to make sure that each search qualifies for the appropriate prize drawing, and to monitor our site traffic.

Refer-a-Friend feature

  • 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 email address. We will automatically send your friend an email inviting him or her to visit the site. Search and Win.com will store this information for the sole purpose of sending referral emails and tracking the success of our referral program.

Information Sharing and Disclosure

Search and Win may share aggregated non-personal information with third parties outside of Search and Win. We will not share personally identifiable information with third parties without your express consent. For example, we may disclose how frequently the average Search and Win user visits Search and Win or which other query words are most often used. We will release specific personal information about you if required to do so in order to comply with any valid legal or to establish or exercise our legal rights or defend against legal claims.

Cookies

A cookie is a small amount of data, which is sent to your browser from a web site's computers and stored on your computer’s hard drive. Search and Win uses its own cookies for a number of purposes, including to:

  • Track entries in Search and Win sweepstakes, contests and promotions.
  • Access your information when you "sign in."
  • Conduct research to improve Search and Win's content and services.
  • Require you to re-enter your Search and Win password after a certain period of time has elapsed to protect you against others accidentally accessing your account contents.

Search and Win lets other companies that show advertisements on some of our pages set and access their cookies on your computer. Like Search and Win, some of these companies may use their cookies to keep track of the web searches you make while visiting this website. They may also keep track of your web surfing behavior on this website and other websites you may visit. That information may be used to customize ads to you on this and other websites, and/or to keep track of your response to the ads they deliver. Other companies' use of their cookies is subject to their own privacy policies, not this one. Advertisers or other companies do not have access to Search and Win's cookies.

Search and Win does not require users to accept cookies in order to enter or view the site. However, if you reject cookies, you will not be able to register for a Search and Win account, invite friends to use Search and Win, earn Search and Win points, or redeem Search and Win prizes. Please note that some areas or features of Search and Win will be significantly slower, or may not function at all, if cookies are disabled.

Confidentiality and Security

  • Your registration data is password-protected so that only you and Search and Win have access to this personal information. You may edit your registration data by using your password.
  • We limit access to personal information about you to employees who we believe reasonably need to come into contact with that information to provide products or services to you or in order to do their jobs.
  • Search and Win takes steps to ensure that your information is treated securely and in accordance with our Terms of Service and this Privacy Policy. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us or from our online products or services, and you use these services at your own risk.
