Privacy Policy

Your privacy is our priority! We are committed to your right to privacy. We strongly respect your privacy and guarantee to keep your personal and financial information secure. The information you submit is completely confidential and we will only share this information with our participating lenders and vendors. (Lenders and Vendors we identify as an appropriate match for your situation).

We do not ask for Social Security Numbers over the internet since we believe you can never be too careful. We are not, ourselves, a lender or vendor. We take the information you supply us and match it with lenders and vendors within our database.

When you choose to inquire with a lender or vendor who advertises with us, your information remains between you and that lender(s) or vendor(s). Advertisers are solely responsible for keeping their information current. We shall not be responsible or liable for any products, services, information or other materials displayed, purchased, or obtained as a result of any information or offer in or results of any kind obtained in connection with this website. Nothing on this website contains an offer, promise or otherwise, either to make a specific bid on any specific terms or that any participating lender or vendor.

We know you want to remain in control of your personal information. We realize that earning and retaining your trust is of paramount importance and it's a responsibility we take very seriously, every day.

That's why we've provided this Privacy Policy, which sets forth our policies regarding the collection, use and protection of the personal information of those using the TinaLostWeight.com website. Personal information means information that can be linked to a specific individual, such as name, address, telephone number, e-mail address and credit card number.

We encourage you to review our Privacy Policy, and become familiar with it, but you should know that we do not sell or rent our customers' personal information to third parties.

Please note that we review our Privacy Policy from time to time, and we may make periodic changes to the policy in connection with that review. Therefore, you may wish to bookmark this page and/or periodically review this page to make sure you have the current version.

This Privacy Policy explains the following:

What personal information we collect from you and how we use it
With whom (if anyone) your personal information is shared
How you can opt-out of receiving our promotional e-mails
What safeguards we have in place to protect your personal information
Other information you should know about your privacy

What personal information does TinaLostWeight.com gather from me and how is this information used?

When browsing our site, you are not required to provide any personal information unless and until you choose to make a purchase, sign up for one of our e-mail newsletters, request financial quotes, or other services as described below. We do not knowingly permit the site to be used by any person under the age of eighteen and we do not knowingly collect any personal information from children (meaning those younger than eighteen years of age).

Making a Purchase
In order to purchase services through our site, you must provide us with certain personal information such as your name, your credit card number and expiration date, your credit card billing address, your telephone number, your e-mail address and the name or names of the person(s) traveling (if not you). We require this information so that we can process, fulfill and confirm your services and or purchases.

Our newsletters are optional benefits you may choose to subscribe to if you should desire.

Online Surveys
TinaLostWeight.com values opinions and comments from members, so we frequently conduct online surveys. Participation in these surveys is entirely optional. Typically, the information is aggregated and used to make improvements to TinaLostWeight.com and to develop appealing content, features and promotions for members. Survey participants are anonymous unless otherwise stated in the survey.

Automatic Logging of Session Data
We automatically log generic information about your computer's connection to the Internet, which we call "session data", that is anonymous and not linked to any personal information. Session data consists of things such as IP address, operating system and type of browser software being used and the activities conducted by the user while on our site. An IP address is a number that lets computers attached to the Internet, such as our web servers, know where to send data back to the user, such as the pages of the site the user wishes to view. We collect session data because it helps us analyze such things as what items visitors are likely to click on most, the way visitors are clicking through the site, how many visitors are surfing to various pages on the site, how long visitors to the site are staying and how often they are visiting. It also helps us diagnose problems with our servers and lets us better administer our systems. Although such information does not identify any visitor personally, it is possible to determine from an IP address a visitor's Internet Service Provider (ISP) and the approximate geographic location of his or her point of connectivity.

With whom (if anyone) will my personal information be shared?

When you request financial quotes, information, or other services through TinaLostWeight.com, we must provide certain parts of your personal information to the bank, lender, or other involved third party to enable the successful fulfillment of your request. However, we do not sell or rent individual customer names or other personal information to third parties.

Occasionally, TinaLostWeight.com will hire a third party to act on our behalf for projects such as market-research surveys and contest-entry processing and will provide information to these third parties specifically for use in connection with these projects. The information we provide to such third parties is protected by a confidentiality agreement and is to be used solely for completing the specific project.
