How it works

Privacy policy

Effective as of January 14, 2016.

BY USING OR ACCESSING THE SITES YOU CONFIRM THAT YOU AGREE TO THE TERMS OF THIS PRIVACY POLICY. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THE TERMS OF THIS PRIVACY POLICY, PLEASE DO NOT USE THE SITES. WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO REVISE THIS PRIVACY POLICY AT ANY TIME BY UPDATING THIS PAGE AND YOUR USE AFTER SUCH CHANGE CONFIRMS YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF THE CHANGED TERMS. PLEASE CHECK THIS PRIVACY POLICY PERIODICALLY FOR CHANGES. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Privacy Policy shall have the definitions ascribed to such terms in the Terms of Use or Terms of Service, as applicable.

In order to make your visits to the Shopmium website and smartphone application (each, a "Site" and together the "Sites") as responsive as possible, we collect information when you visit the Sites. This Privacy Policy explains the capture and use of that information.

The Sites are provided to you by Quotient Technology Limited, a company registered in England and Wales with company number 07775437, whose registered address is Landmark House, Hammersmith Bridge Road, London, W6 9DP. Quotient Technology Limited passes the personal information collected when you visit the Sites to its affiliate, Shopmium SAS, a company registered in France, to use that personal information on its behalf and for Shopmium SAS' own purposes in order to operate the Sites (but always in accordance with this Privacy Policy). Quotient Technology Limited and Shopmium SAS are together referred to in this Privacy Policy as "Shopmium", "our", "we", or "us". This Privacy Policy applies only to the information collected online by the Sites. If you have any questions, comments or concerns regarding this Privacy Policy or our privacy practices, please e-mail us at contact.uk@shopmium.com.

A. Information Collected Online

  1. General Browsing. The Sites gather navigational information about the areas of the Sites that visitors visit. This information allows us to see which areas of our Sites are most visited and helps us improve the quality of your online experience by providing more of the most visited and desired features and services. Additional non-personal information such as domain type, browser version, and service provider may be collected, which provide information regarding the general use of the Sites.

  2. Personal Information We Collect

    a. The Sites collect certain personal information from you when you voluntarily provide us with this information, including name, address, gender, date of birth, e-mail address, telephone number, bank account details, PayPal account details, and any other information you choose to provide.

    b. The Sites collect certain personal information from you when you use the Sites, including technical information collected from the Sites about your device, for example its internet protocol address (IP address).

    c. We may also collect data from your use of the Sites which enables us to determine your location (for example, the location where you may scan a coupon). This location information is collected so that we can provide you with the best possible experience, for fraud prevention purposes, and to operate and improve the Sites. The Sites may not be able to operate properly without collecting this location information and so by using the Sites, you confirm that you agree to this.

B. Shopmium's Social Media Site Pages

  1. Personal information may be collected directly by the Sites through certain social media pages and may also be collected by the social media site hosting Shopmium's social media page, as applicable.
  2. The social media sites where Shopmium has its social media pages (for example, on Facebook or Twitter) may provide aggregate information and analysis to Shopmium about visitors' use of our social media pages. This allows us to better understand and analyze our user growth, general demographic information about the users of our social media pages, and users' interaction with content on our social media pages. Overall, this information may be used to help us understand the types of visitors and users of our social media pages and their use of the content.

C. Information We Collect If You Apply For A Job.

If you want to work for us, you can submit a curriculum vitae or resume online. When you fill out an online employment application, we will collect personal data such as your name and contact details.

We may use and store personal information that we collect from you in countries that are outside of the European Economic Area (including the United States of America). Please be aware that countries which are outside the European Economic Area may not offer the same level of data protection as the United Kingdom, although our collection, storage and use of your personal data will continue to be governed by this privacy policy.

G. Cookies

  1. What Are Cookies and How Do We Use Them? The Sites use a browser feature known as a cookie, which itself does not contain personal information, although it will enable us to relate your use of the Sites to information that you have specifically and knowingly provided. The cookies are typically stored on your computer's hard drive. Information collected from cookies is used by the Sites to evaluate their effectiveness, analyze trends, and administer the Sites. The information collected from cookies allows us to determine such things as which parts of the Sites are most visited and difficulties our visitors may experience in accessing the Sites. With this knowledge, we can improve the quality of your experience on our Sites by recognizing and delivering more of the most desired features and information, as well as by resolving difficulties. In addition, the Sites use cookies to help keep track of Promotions you view and to tell us whether you have visited the Sites in the past. You can refuse cookies by turning them off in your browser. If you have set your browser to warn you before accepting cookies, you will receive a warning message with each cookie.
  2. Third Party Cookies We use third-party service providers to assist us in better understanding the use of the Sites. Our service providers will place cookies on your computer and will receive information that we select that will inform us of things such as how visitors navigate around the Sites, identify which features are most used, identify which Promotions are browsed, and aggregate information. Our service providers analyse this information and provide us with aggregate reports. The information and analysis provided by our service providers will be used to assist us in better understanding our visitors' interests in the Sites and how to better serve those interests. The information collected by our service providers may be linked to and combined with information that we collect about you while you are visiting the Sites.

H. Updating Your Personal Information

We prefer to keep the personal information of users who have created a User Account accurate and up-to-date. To do this, we provide you with the opportunity to update or modify your personal information, including your billing address and preferred Rebate receipt information. You can log on to your User Account with your username and password, and you will see a menu where you can update your information.

Shopmium does not offer Promotions to children under the age of thirteen (13), and all children's product Promotions are for purchase by adults only. No information should be submitted to the Sites by visitors less than thirteen (13) years of age.

For your convenience, the Sites may contain links to other websites that are not under our control. We are not responsible for them, and this policy does not apply to those websites or any other companies that we do not own or control.

M. Security Statement

We operate secure data networks provided by industry standard firewall and password protection systems to protect against the loss, misuse and alteration of information under our control. While we use reasonable efforts to safeguard the confidentiality of your information, we cannot guarantee that data will always remain secure due to transmission errors, outside events, third party hacking or other causes outside of our control.
