Privacy Policy
Posted November 25, 2020 by GottaDEAL Management
GottaDEAL ("OlsonNet, LLC", “we,” “us,” or “our”) values its users’ privacy on the GottaDEAL web site (GottaDeal.com), forums, mobile site and apps (collectively, the “Properties”). This Privacy Policy pertains to our Properties, the services that we offer on our Properties and your interactions with us outside our Properties (collectively, the “Services”). We have implemented this Privacy Policy to provide you with information about how GottaDEAL collects, uses, and discloses information about you. By visiting our Properties or using our Services in any other way, you are agreeing to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.
What Types of Personal Information Does GottaDEAL Collect from Me?
GottaDEAL will collect the personal information you provide to us, for example when you register, take a survey, sign up for notifications, participate in a sweepstakes, email us or otherwise send us your contact information. Personal information may include your name, email address, phone number, mailing and/or billing address, and other information that identifies you as an individual. You can use some of the Services without providing these types of personal information, but certain features may not be available. If you would like to update these types of personal information that you previously provided to us, you can email us at [email protected].
Each time you use our Services, GottaDEAL also collects other, technical information, which may be combined with other information we collect about you. This technical information includes, for example, your browser type, the URL of the previous web site you visited, your Internet Service Provider, your operating system, and your IP address. We may use cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies to collect such information as described below. We also use analytics and reporting technologies to collect records of your browsing and activities when using our Services, as well as other usage information such as your clickstream patterns, your preferences, and the dates and times that you use our Services.
If you receive email or texts from us, we will analyze related information such as whether you open the email or read the text, and whether you click on an ad or offer in the email or text.
If you log in via a third-party service like Facebook or Google, we will collect the information described in the third-party service’s request for authorization. This information may include your name, email address, gender, city, and state. You should review your privacy settings with these third-party services to be sure you are only sharing information you wish to share.
We may obtain additional personal and other information about you from third parties and combine it with the information that we collect from you.
What About Cookies and Web Beacons?
In addition, GottaDEAL (and our third-party service providers) use “cookies,” a small data string our server writes to your computer, and other similar technologies to help us manage and analyze your interaction with our Services. These technologies can store information that we collect about you, and can collect information linked to your browser or device that we use for a number of purposes, including improving our Services, keeping count of return visits to our Properties or our advertisers’ or partners’ websites, collecting and reporting statistical information about our users, saving your password and login information, displaying advertising or content based on your interests (as further described below), and learning about how you interact with email or text messages and advertising content. We may also collect information about your search criteria and results, the date and time of your visit to our Properties, and your connection speed and IP address. Cookies may store information that identifies your device, like a hashed email address, but we do not use cookies to store individual identifiers like your name.
Third parties whose products or services are accessible or advertised via our Services may also use cookies on our Properties, and we encourage you to check their privacy policies for information about their information privacy practices.
You may be able to refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser; however, refusing to receive cookies will not stop all data collection and may prevent you from being able to use the full functionality of our Services.
Additionally, emails we send may contain a bit of code known as a “web beacon.” This code allows us to understand the time and date when you open an email and when you use a link within the email to visit a website. If you wish to disable our web beacons, you can do so by turning images “off” in your email software (e.g., Outlook, Outlook Express). Please see your email software instructions or “Help” for more information.
Do Third Parties Collect My Information?
We use analytics services provided by third parties such as Google. These companies use cookies and other technologies to collect data about your use of our Properties and other websites over time. This information will be transmitted to and stored by our analytics providers, who will use this information for purposes such as evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity for website operators, providing GottaDEAL with information for customer service and product development purposes, and providing other services relating to activity on our Properties and internet usage.

This Privacy Policy does not apply to the information collected by third parties when you click on their links or otherwise access their properties. We cannot control the privacy practices of third-party properties, and we are not responsible for such practices.
