Cookies, Interest-Based Advertising, and Third-Party Analytics
Our Website uses cookies to determine whether users have previously visited the Website and to streamline the registration process so, for example, users don’t have to re-enter their basic registration information when they return to the Website. We may also use cookies to enhance a user’s experience while on the Website.
These cookies link your browsing session to registration information (such as your email address or phone number) stored in our centralized data platform, enabling us to recognize you when you visit any website in the Family of Sites, improve your experience, and reduce redundant data entry across our owned-and-operated properties. These cookies are categorized as functional cookies and are not used for targeted advertising, cross-context behavioral advertising, or the sale or sharing of personal information with third parties. By using the Website, you consent to the use of these functional cookies as described in this section.
Some of our third-party Marketing Partners may place cookies on the Website to track users’ online behavior while on the Website and after they leave the Website. These third-party cookies may enable the delivery of interest-based advertisements (to find out more about cookies, visit https://www.networkadvertising.org/understanding-online-advertising/glossary/) based on a user’s visit to the Website and/or other websites. In addition, our Marketing Partners use Information gathered in this manner to recognize users across different channels and platforms, including computers, mobile devices, and Smart TVs. Our Marketing Partners may use this information over time for advertising, analytics, attribution, and reporting purposes.
We may use Google Analytics and similar tools provided by our third-party partners to help analyze how users interact with the Website and to display customized ads and other content to our users during a current browsing session or in the future when the user is online. These analytics are performed by using the technological means described above to monitor a user’s interactions with the Website and do not involve the collection of any additional Information.
Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies, but users can reset their Internet browsers to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent or to refuse online tracking. To disable and reject certain cookies, follow the instructions associated with your Internet browser. In general, when a “do-not-track” setting is active, the user’s browser notifies other websites that the user does not want their Information and online behavior to be tracked and used, for example, for interest-based advertising. As required under some state laws, we are required to inform users that, as is the case with most websites, we generally do not honor or alter our behavior when a user of one of the Websites has activated the “do-not-track” setting on their browser. The exception to this is for consumers in California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Oregon, Rhode Island, and Texas, where we will honor any opt-out preference signals they set on applicable browsers.
Even where you reject a cookie, you may still use the Website, but your ability to use certain features or offerings may be impaired. For example, if you return to the Website, you may have to re-enter Information you previously supplied to us. We retain cookie data for so long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this section.
Users may opt-out from interest-based advertising delivered to their web browser by companies who have elected to participate in one of the interest-based advertising opt-out mechanisms such as the Digital Advertising Alliance’s opt-out program located here or the National Advertising Institute’s opt-out program located here. Users may also choose to opt-out of interest-based advertising on their mobile devices. For more information, please click here. Please note that opting out of interest-based advertising does not mean you will no longer see advertising online. Rather, it means that the company or companies from which you opt-out will no longer show ads that have been tailored to your interests.

Please note that it may take us several days to process an opt-out request. In compliance with applicable state law, we will honor opt-out preference signals set by consumers in states that require recognition of such signals.
Policy Against Spam
We require that all emails promoting the Websites are sent only to users who have agreed to receive such emails. We prohibit any advertising of the Websites using unsolicited “spam” emails. If an advertiser or other person advertising or promoting our Sites fails to comply with our “no spam” policy, we will take appropriate disciplinary action against such person up to and including terminating our agreement with such person. If you feel you’ve been sent unsolicited spam emails promoting a Website and would like to register a complaint, please let us know by emailing us at info@getngoods.com. We will immediately investigate all allegations of spam email and take appropriate action.
Accessing, Correcting, and Deleting Your Information
Users who provide Information to us may contact us at info@getngoods.com to correct their Information, request their Information be deleted, and/or access what Information we have collected, processed, and shared/sold. We will respond to user requests within forty-five (45) days. If you request deletion of your Information, please note that your Information will be suppressed from further use as described in this Policy. However, please remember that if we have already shared your Information with our third-party Marketing Partners, you will need to contact those Marketing Partners individually to have them suppress or delete your Information. Note that we may retain and use your Information as necessary to comply with our policies including legal obligations, dispute resolution, and enforcement of our agreements.
When you make a request regarding accessing, correcting, or deleting your Information, we will ask individual users to identify themselves and the Information requested to be accessed, corrected, or deleted before processing such requests. To the extent permitted by applicable law, we may decline to process requests that we are unable to verify, are unreasonably repetitive or systematic, require disproportionate technical effort, jeopardize the privacy of others, or would be extremely impractical (for instance, requests concerning Information residing on archive servers).
Please refer to the U.S. State Law Rights and Disclosures section of this Privacy Policy for additional information on privacy rights for consumers in certain states.
Health and Wellness Information
Our surveys may ask health and wellness-related questions.

With your consent, we may provide Information to these providers so they can contact you. If you do not wish to share health and wellness-related Information, do not answer the health and wellness-related survey questions and do not provide TCPA Consent. Washington and Nevada residents: The collection, use, and sharing of health and wellness-related Information may be subject to the Washington My Health My Data Act and Nevada SB 370.

With your consent, we may provide Information to Medicare Supplement providers so they can contact you. If you do not wish us to share your Information, do not provide consent to telemarketing.
Third-Party Sites
Our Website contains links to other sites or services. When you link from the Website to a third-party site (such as when you link from a survey question, optional marketing offer, or Deal advertisement to another site), you are leaving the Website and are subject to the privacy policies and terms and conditions of those sites – NOT this Privacy Policy. We are not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or security of such third-party sites.
Security of Your Information
We use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent unauthorized access, disclosure, or accidental loss or destruction of your Information. Access to your Information is strictly limited and we take reasonable measures to ensure that your Information is not accessible to the public. We restrict access to users’ Information to only those persons who need access to perform or provide their job or service, both internally and with our third-party service providers. Information is encrypted with advanced TLS (Transport Layer Security) when collected, stored, and/or transmitted.
While we have endeavored to create a secure and reliable Website for users, we are not able to fully eliminate security risks associated with Information. Given the nature of the Internet, your Information passes through entities that we are unable to control. Therefore, we cannot guarantee that our security measures or those of third parties who access or transmit your Information will prevent your Information from being improperly accessed, stolen, or altered. In compliance with applicable federal and state laws, we shall notify you and any applicable regulatory agencies if we learn of an information security breach of your Information. You will be notified via email in the event of such a breach. Please be advised that notice may be delayed to address the needs of law enforcement, determine the scope of network damage, and to engage in remedial measures.
Biometric Data
We may in the future implement identity verification processes that involve the collection of biometric Data, such as facial geometry derived from a government-issued identification card and a selfie or live video. If we do, we will update this Policy, provide you with specific notice and obtain your consent prior to any such collection, and comply with all applicable biometric data privacy laws.
Currently, as part of the Rewards claims process, we may ask you to upload an image of your government-issued identification card to verify your identity. We use these images solely for identity verification and fraud prevention. We do not extract facial geometry or create biometric identifiers from these images. Government-issued identification images used for this limited purpose are not considered biometric data. You may request that your identification images be deleted at any time after submission.

Verification Process. We require a verification process for requests to access, correct, or delete Information to prevent an unauthorized third-party from accessing or making decisions regarding a user’s Information. Generally, we will verify a request by matching the identifying information supplied by the user with the Information we already have for the user. If we cannot verify the user using the foregoing method, we may request additional information, such as a government-issued identification card, which we will not retain or use for any other purpose.
Use of an Authorized Agent. California consumers may also designate an authorized agent to make these requests on their behalf. You must provide written authorization to the authorized agent that they are authorized to act on your behalf. When contacting us, the agent must submit proof of that authorization. If you use an authorized agent to submit a request, we may need to collect additional information, such as a government issued identification card, to verify your identity before processing your request to protect your Information.
Timing. We will confirm receipt of your request within ten (10) business days. For all verifiable consumer requests, we strive to respond within forty-five (45) days of receipt. If we require additional time, which can be up to ninety (90) days in the aggregate, we will provide written notice. Any disclosures we provide will be delivered electronically in a secure fashion. If, for some reason, we cannot fulfill or comply with your request, our response will explain that decision.
How We Handle Deletion Requests After Verification. Once we receive and confirm your request to delete, we will delete or de-identify (and direct our service providers, vendors, and other applicable third parties to delete) your Information from our system other than from our archive servers (which we maintain for compliance purposes), unless there is an applicable exception. If we do not comply with a deletion request, we will provide you with grounds for the denial in writing. Note that after a deletion request, we may retain and use your Information for the limited purpose of complying with our policies, including this Policy, and to comply with applicable laws.
Disclosure of Information Collected and Sold. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request to access your Information, we will disclose to you the following:
The categories and sources of Information collected;
Our business and commercial purposes for collecting and selling that Information;
The categories of third parties with whom we shared that Information;
The specific pieces of Information collected;
If we sold or disclosed your Information for a business purpose, we will provide:
For sales - the Information categories for each category sold and the categories of third parties to whom the Information was sold; and
For disclosures - the Information categories for each category disclosed and the categories of third parties to whom the Information was disclosed.
Notice of Right to Opt-Out of the Sale or Sharing of Your Information

When your opt-out request has been processed, we will display confirmation of that status on the Website (for example, by displaying an ‘Opt-Out Request Honored’ notice or a toggle in your privacy settings indicating your opt-out status).
While our agreements with third parties to whom we sell or disclose Information prohibit the further sale or use beyond the scope of our agreement with them, if we have sold or shared a California consumer’s Information after an opt-out request is submitted but before we have complied with the opt-out, we will, where possible, notify all third parties to whom we have sold or shared a California consumer’s Information to comply with the opt-out request. If the user requests a transaction with us that requires the sale of their Information, we will inform them that they have opted out and if they want to proceed with the transaction, we will offer the opportunity to opt-in.
Notice of Right to Limit Sensitive Personal Information
Under the CCPA, “Sensitive Personal Information” includes non-public information that reveals a consumer’s social security, driver’s license, state identification card, or passport number, a consumer’s account log-in, financial account, debit card, or credit card number in combination with any required security or access code, password, or credentials allowing access to an account, a consumer’s racial or ethnic origin, religious or philosophical beliefs, or union membership, Information collected and analyzed concerning a consumer’s health, sex life, or sexual orientation. As noted in the Categories of Information We Collect section above, we may collect, use, share, and sell Information defined as Sensitive Personal Information under the CCPA.
Identity Verification Information Used Only to Fulfill Rewards. As described in the Biometric Data section of this Privacy Policy, we may in the future implement identity verification processes that involve the collection of biometric data. If we do, we will update this Policy, provide you with specific notice and obtain your consent prior to any such collection, and comply with all applicable biometric data privacy laws.
As described earlier in this Privacy Policy, as part of the Rewards claims process, we may ask you to upload an image of your government-issued identification card to verify your identity. We use these images solely for identity verification and fraud prevention. We do not extract facial geometry or create biometric identifiers from these images. Government-issued identification images used for this limited purpose are not considered biometric data. You may request that your identification images be deleted at any time after submission.
You do not need to provide us with any Sensitive Personal Information in order to claim Rewards or Sweepstakes prizes. However, due to the nature of our business, once you provide us with Sensitive Personal Information, we are unable to separate Sensitive Personal Information from other Information. If you would like to exercise your Right to Opt-Out of Selling/Sharing Sensitive Information, because we are unable to separate Sensitive Personal Information from other Information, we will treat the request as a Right to Delete request unless you instruct us otherwise. Click on the “Your Privacy Center” link on the bottom of the Website page where we collect Information or send an email to info@getngoods.com.
Global Privacy Controls
Certain browsers allow users to enable an opt-out preference signal in their browser settings (a “Global Privacy Control”). When a Global Privacy Control is enabled, it signals websites that the user visits that the user is automatically exercising their right to opt-out of the sale or sharing of their Information without the need, for example, of clicking on a “Do Not Sell” link. Via our service provider, we have enabled acceptance of Global Privacy Control signals from users in California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Oregon, Rhode Island, and Texas.
Commitment to Nondiscrimination
We are committed to not discriminating against California consumers who exercise their CCPA rights. As such, unless otherwise permitted by the CCPA, we will not deny, charge you different prices or rates, or provide a different quality level of goods or services, including through granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties, and/or suggest that you may receive a different price, rate, or quality level of goods or services. While we do not provide financial incentives for users who do not exercise their CCPA rights, please note that some of the functionality of the Website may be unavailable if consumers exercise their right to have their Information deleted.
