Privacy Policy and Terms of Use

Your Privacy

Vimbly ("we", "our" or "us") takes very seriously the private nature of your personally identifying information. The privacy of all Vimbly users is very important. This Privacy Policy describes how we use the information we obtain when you visit www.vimbly.com (the "Site") or use the services offered through the Site (collectively, the "Services"). Please read this notice carefully and do not hesitate to let us know if you have any questions.

 

Email Sign Up Process

When you sign up for a Vimbly account, you will be required to provide a valid email address. We will only use this email address to contact you as part of the transaction process, to send you periodic emails that you have subscribed to, or for purposes that are intended to enhance your user experience. We may also occasionally contact you to obtain feedback on a vendor booking in which you have participated. We will not share your email address with any third parties or merchants. Vimbly will generally ask you to indicate whether or not you want to receive certain types of email communication from us, and we will adhere to your preferences unless we consider a particular communication to be absolutely necessary. Emails will generally contain a link at the bottom to be removed from our mailing list.

 

Name Recognition

When making a booking, you may be required to provide the full name of the person who will use it, whether that will be you or someone else. We will only share this name with the applicable vendor. If a payment is involved in your booking, we will also collect your full name during the checkout process to verify your credit card payment information. When signing up for a Vimbly account, you may also be asked to provide your name at that time so that we can personalize all communications you receive from us.

 

Billing Information

For certain bookings, we may require credit card information which is maintained by our payment processor in encrypted form on secure servers. We do not share this information with any third party except the companies responsible for processing our credit card transactions. If any billing information is required, it will be recorded via a Secure Socket Layer connection (SSL) and is fully encrypted. This and your other personal information is safe and secure and will only be used for the purpose of booking your activity. We take security seriously and employ commercial security measures to protect the security of your personal information.

 

Sharing Functionality

At various times, you will be able to share content on our site using content sharing features (e.g., Facebook). We do not view or store the specific messages that you send through these features, but we may record the number of times that particular content has been shared.

 

Customization

Like most sites, Vimbly makes use of browser "cookies." Cookies are small text files placed on your computer's hard disk by our server. They allow us to quickly check your status as a user and facilitate access to your preferences. Vimbly does not use cookies to retrieve or track information that is unrelated to the Site or services. Vimbly may also use transparent GIF images in emails we send to you. We use these images to track the viewership of emails we send. Vimbly may also create unique links in emails that enable us to track on which emails you click.

 

Usage Information

Vimbly may also collect non-personally identifying, aggregated information about subscribers' use of our site. This information is not personally identifiable and will only be used to find out how visitors to our site use our service. For example, we may view how much time users spend on our site, from which other sites users came, and which links to external sites have been used, among other things. We may share this data with third parties in an aggregated, non-personally identifying form. Such information does not identify you individually.

 

Updating Your Personal Information

Although we take reasonable steps to ensure that all data we use is accurate, we depend on our users to update or correct their personally identifying information whenever necessary. We make good faith efforts to provide you with access to your personally identifying information and either to correct this data if it is inaccurate or to delete such data at your request if it is not otherwise required to be retained by law or for legitimate business purposes.

 

Minors

Vimbly does not knowingly collect any information from persons under the age of 13. If you are between the ages of 13 and 18, please ask your parent's permission before using the Site and the Service. Some bookings may be subject to further age limitations.

 

Links to other websites

The Site may contain links to other websites. Vimbly is not responsible for the privacy practices of third parties or the content of these websites. If you follow these links you are responsible for reviewing the privacy policy of any third party website to determine that your personally identifying information is protected to your satisfaction.

 

Analytics Tools

We use analytics tools and other third party technologies, such as Google Analytics and DoubleClick Cookies, to collect non-personal information in the form of various usage and user metrics when you use our online Sites and/or Services. These tools and technologies collect and analyze certain types of information, including cookies, IP addresses, referring and exit URLs, onsite behavior and usage information, feature use metrics and statistics, usage and purchase history, and other similar information.

 

The third party analytics companies who collect information on our Sites and/or Services and other online products and/or services may combine the information collected with other information they have independently collected from other websites and/or other online or mobile products and services relating to your activities across their network of websites as well as online and/or mobile products and services. Many of these companies collect and use information under their own privacy policies.

 

In addition to our use of technologies as described herein, we may permit certain third party companies to help us tailor advertising that we think may be of interest to you based on your use of Vimbly Sites and/or Services and to otherwise collect and use data about your use of Vimbly Sites and/or Services. For more information about this practice, please see the "Third Party Advertising Technologies" section below.

Examples may include urgent security alerts, and other messages that impact health and safety (including family and pets).
