Tell Me Girlfriend Privacy Policy

Tell Me Girlfriend (TMG) wants to tell you about great shopping and ideas we have found on line, however, we won’t tell anyone else about you.  We take your privacy and personal information very seriously.  Generally, you can browse through our Website without giving us any information about yourself (including your email address). When we do need your personal information this policy describes how we collect and use this information. We use your personal information to provide services that you request, such as signing up for our email newsletter and/or become one of our Best Girlfriends (and we hope you do).

The on-line boutiques and products we feature on TMG are selected by the staff at TMG.  We feature the boutiques and products we think you will love; however, if you don’t love it, we want to know!  No boutique or product may pay to be featured, that just wouldn’t be right!  We do accept banner advertising and sponsorships to keep TMG in the black but we will not rent, sell, lend, give away or otherwise share your information with any third party without your express permission

If we decide to change our privacy policy for this Website, we will post those changes here so that you will always know what information we gather, how we might use that information and whether we will disclose it to anyone.

Information Collection

We collect personal information (such as your name and email address) from you when you submit a request for information. Examples would be when you opt-in to receive our free email newsletter, when you become one of our Best Girlfriends or when you submit your details for any other reason. Personal information will only be collected with your consent.

When you browse our Website, we may also log your IP address (the Internet address of your computer) to give us an idea of which part of our Website you visit and how long you spend here. We do not link your IP address to any other personal information that you send to us. Like many other websites, we may use a standard technology called a "cookie" to collect information about how you use the Website.  We may use cookies to record session information, such as record user-specific information on what pages users access or visit, record past activity in order to provide better service when you return to our site, and customize web page or email message content based on your browser type or other information.   TMG creates links allowing you to access third party sites. TMG is not responsible for the content that appears on those sites and does not endorse these sites.
