This Privacy Policy is effective as of August 20th, 2009
Welcome!
The Privacy Policy posted on this Site was updated on or about August 20th, 2009
Privacy is very important to us. Please read this document carefully. This policy covers how Tango Card treats Personally Identifiable Information (“PII”) that Tango Card collects and receives. Personally identifiable information is information about you that can be traced directly back to and identifies an individual. PII includes your name, address, employer, email address, or phone number.
By using this Site, you signify your assent to this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to this Privacy Policy, please do not use this site. This Privacy Policy may change from time to time, so please check back periodically to ensure that you are aware of any changes. Your continued use of the Tango Card website will signify your acceptance of these changes.
Scope of this Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy applies only to PII collected by Tango Card through visitation to the website or use of Tango Card’s iPhone application where this Privacy Policy is posted (the “Site”) and does not apply to any other information collected by Tango Card and its affiliated entities through any other means. Tango Card and its affiliated entities are collectively referred to in this Privacy Policy as “Tango Card,” “we,” “us” or the “Site.” It is important for you to understand this because Tango Card allows you to navigate away from our Site at times to websites controlled by third parties (some of which we have a relationship with). When you click on one of those links, you leave the Tango Card site, at which point our Privacy Policy no longer applies. We provide a notice warning our users when they are leaving our Site. We encourage you to review the Privacy Policies of any site you link to from Tango Card.

The Information We Collect
Tango Card collects personal information when you register with Tango Card, or when you use Tango Card products or services. In registering with Tango Card, you must provide us with your real name, e-mail address, phone number, and shipping address. Whenever you visit the Tango Card website, Tango Card also receives and records information on our server logs from your browser, including your IP address, Tango Card cookie information, and the pages you request, and relates it to the PII you provide. Tango Card uses this information for the following general purposes: to fulfill your requests for products and services, to improve our products and services, to contact you, conduct research, and provide anonymous reporting for internal and external clients. Once you have registered or have purchased Tango Card products, we reserve the right to send you certain communications relating to the Tango Card service, such as service announcements, and administrative messages that are considered part of your Tango Card account.
How We Use Your Personal Information
We use PII for internal and Service-related purposes only. Tango Card does not rent, sell, or share PII about you with other people or nonaffiliated companies, except to provide products or services you’ve requested, when we have your permission, or under the following circumstances: we provide the information to trusted partners who work on behalf of or with Tango Card under confidentiality agreements. These companies may use your PII to help Tango Card communicate with you about offers from Tango Card and our marketing partners. However, these companies do not have any independent right to share this information.
Credit card information, if collected and/or provided, is used only for payment processing and fraud prevention. Credit card information and other sensitive personal information required to process a purchase is not used for any other purpose by our financial services providers or us and will not be kept longer than necessary for providing the services offered by us.
We may disclose PII in response to legal process, for example, in response to a court order or a subpoena. We also may disclose PII in response to a law enforcement agency’s request, or where we believe it is necessary to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, violations of our Terms of Service, to verify or enforce compliance with the policies governing our products and applicable laws, or as otherwise required or permitted by law or consistent with legal requirements. In addition, we may transfer PII about you if we or one of our business units are acquired by, sold to, or merged with another company.
We reserve the right to transfer all PII in our system in the event that Tango Card is sold, merged or otherwise assigned such that control rests with a different entity.
What Cookies and Web Beacons Are and How We Use Them
Our Site uses a software technology called “cookies.” Cookies are small text files that we place in visitors’ computer browsers to store their preferences. Cookies themselves do not contain any PII. “Web beacons” are small pieces of code placed on a web page to monitor the behavior and collect data about the visitors viewing a web page. For example, web beacons can be used to count the users who visit a web page or to deliver a cookie to the browser of a visitor viewing that page. We may use web beacons on our Site from time to time for this purpose.
What Internet Protocol Addresses Are
An Internet protocol (“IP”) address is the unique number assigned to your server or Internet Service Provider (“ISP”). Tango Card may track such IP addresses for system administration, to report aggregate information, site tracking, or to prevent our servers from being abused.
Collection of Information by Third-Party Sites and Sponsors
Our Site contains links to other Web sites, including those of our partners and sponsors, whose information practices may be different from ours. Sometimes these third party websites might conduct contests or sweepstakes that are promoted on our Site and visitors are directed away from our Site in order to participate in such contests or sweepstakes. Visitors should consult those other third party websites’ privacy notices, since those websites are not covered by our Privacy Policy and may follow different procedures.
How We Secure Your Information
We have taken steps to assure that all information collected will remain secure and in its original form, i.e. free from any alteration. As such, access to all personal information is strictly controlled. We have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures in an effort to safeguard and help prevent unauthorized access, maintain data security, and correctly use the information we collect online.
We are particularly sensitive to visitors’ security concerns regarding gift card data. We use a technology that automatically encrypts data while information is being transmitted over the Internet, provided that the visitor’s browser supports the Secure Socket Layer protocol (SSL).
To verify the security of your PC’s web connection at our Service, check the lower left corner of your browser window after accessing the server. If you see an unbroken or a closed lock, then SSL is active and the server is secure. You may also check by looking at the URL line of your browser. When accessing a secure server, the Site address will change from “http” to “https”.
Your California Privacy Rights
If you are a California resident, California Civil Code Section 1798.83 permits you to request and obtain from us once a year, free of charge, information about the personal information (if any) we disclosed to third parties for direct marketing purposes in the preceding calendar year. If applicable, this information would include a list of the categories of personal information that was shared and the names and addresses of all third parties with which we shared information in the immediately preceding calendar year. If you do not want your name and contact information to be shared with any company or organization, you may notify us at any time by writing to us at the email and or regular mail address below.
