Our vision at BargainBetty.com is to maximize the rewards and savings for all of our members and to provide them with as many benefits as possible. The first key way in which we provide value is to discount the commissions we receive from our merchants and return those dollars back to you. Instead of keeping these funds for ourselves, we make our money primarily from marketing partnerships with our merchants, and advertising.

Upon sign up with BargainBetty.com, you have the option to provide your name, address, gender and age. In addition, you have the option provide use with your interests in specific categories. This information helps us understand your interests and develop an understanding of what might appeal to you. Based on these demographics and interests, we are able to determine what types of merchants and specials would benefit our members most.

When a member shops or visits one of our merchants, BargainBetty.com may track this information to have a summary of our member's buying interests. This information will be used by BargainBetty.com to make relevant and personalized offers to our members. As with any other information that you supply to BargainBetty.com, none of the information that we collect will be released in any personally identifiable way, only in aggregate or anonymous form

We collect information to provide better, more relevant offers to you, whether it is targeted advertising, new merchants that we think our members may like, or choosing new partnerships. For example, we would be able to discern that 10,000 shoppers would like more Apparel Coupons and BargainBetty.com could contact Apparel Retailers asking them for coupons for use by BargainBetty.com Shoppers. Never would an Apparel Retailers know that Christine in Oregon would like an Apparel Coupon.

Only those BargainBetty.com employees trained in our security processes with managerial oversight would ever have access to your personal information. Primarily this information is accessed to provide customer service or to send you your discount checks.

We may use contractors or vendors to help us provide some of the services at our site. If we need to disclose personal information for them to provide the services, it is with the requirement that the information is kept confidential and is used only for those services.

This is a display issue only, and is caused by the fact that the merchant session is running inside a frame. Rest assured that any time you enter your credit card information at a merchant site, it IS an SSL connection secure connection.
