Vigorous Software LLC  (“We,” Us,” the “Website(s)”) are solely responsible for the administration of this promotion, software program and website. All trademarks are the property of their respective owners with all rights reserved.

How We Collect And Use Information:

This Policy describes how we store and use the information you give us. Our registration form requests that you provide certain contact and profile information (like your name, e-mail address, postal address, and phone number). This information is required in order for us to communicate with you about your membership and send you products you have chosen in response to our offers, products you may have won in our contests or products for you to test in the event that you are selected for our product testing program (the “Services”).

Additionally, we may receive information about you from outside sources and add it to your membership information. We do this to improve personalization of the Services (for example, providing advertising or special offers that we think will interest you).

We also collect information such as the identification of the server your computer is logged onto and whether you responded to e-mail messages delivered to you on our behalf. We also may compare our member list to lists received from other companies, in an effort to avoid sending identical messages to our members. You can add and modify any of the information you have provided by following the instructions set forth below.

Cookies: A cookie is a small text file stored on a user’s computer for record-keeping purposes. We may use cookies to, among other things, save your password so you don’t have to re-enter it each time you visit the website. Many web browsers are automatically set to accept cookies. You may change your browser settings to either reject cookies or notify you when a cookie is about to be placed on your computer. Please note, however, that rejecting cookies while visiting the website may result in certain parts of the website not operating correctly or as efficiently as if they were allowed. For example, you may need to enter your username and password each time you visit member’s only areas.

We also provide links to external advertisers and marketing partner companies; these sites may choose to use cookies to better promote their products and services. These advertisers and marketing partner companies have their own privacy procedures and policies that are not controlled by us.  We encourage our users to be aware of the individual privacy policies of every Web site that the user contacts.

Clear Gif’s (Web Beacons/Web Bugs): We may also use clear gif’s (also known as web beacons or web bugs) to help us determine what content on our site is most effective. Clear gif’s are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, and are used to track the online movements of web users. We do not tie the information gathered by clear gif’s to users’ personally identifiable information.

If you would like more information about cookies, clear gif’s and your choices, click here.

E-mail Links: In some instances we may include certain links in our e-mails that will allow us to monitor whether you access specific content or advertisements contained in that e-mail. When you click on one of these links, we will record that click and certain activities on the Web page associated with that link. We may use this information for various purposes, such as to conduct internal research on our users’ demographics, interests, and behavior in and to our e-mail advertisements and content, and to better understand and serve you.

We use all of this information in the following ways:
1. to provide you with personalized marketing information via electronic delivery, telephone and/or direct mail;
2. to send you targeted advertising via electronic delivery, telephone, SMS text, and/or direct mail;
3. to contact you for feedback and surveys via electronic delivery, telephone and/or direct mail;
4. to send you general and administrative information about your membership via electronic delivery, telephone and/or direct mail;
5. to provide your contact information to our marketing partners to allow them to send you special offers via electronic delivery, telephone and/or direct mail. This most often occurs when you request that we do so such as when completing an online survey; and
6. to deliver products to you for the purpose of incentive redemptions, contest fulfillment or product review and testing.
