5. Sale, Sharing, and Targeted Advertising

Puffify does not sell personal information for money.

Certain analytics, advertising, or marketing technologies may, depending on how they are implemented and applicable law, constitute a “sale,” “sharing,” or use of personal information for targeted advertising even when no money is exchanged.

Where required by applicable law, Puffify will provide mechanisms for individuals to exercise applicable opt-out rights.

6. Age-Restricted Products and Services

Puffify provides information about retailers and products that may be legally restricted to adults.

Puffify is not intended for children, and certain areas, listings, products, or features may be restricted based on age.

Puffify may implement additional age or identity verification measures for particular features in the future. If such measures are introduced, Puffify may use third-party verification providers and update this Privacy Policy or provide additional notices as appropriate.

7. Children’s Privacy

Puffify is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

Because portions of Puffify concern age-restricted products, certain features may be limited to individuals who are at least 21 years old or otherwise meet the applicable minimum legal age.

If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child in violation of applicable law, we will take reasonable steps to delete that information.

If you believe a child has provided personal information to Puffify, please contact us using the information below.

  • Maintain appropriate business records
  • Resolve disputes
  • Prevent fraud and abuse
  • Enforce agreements
  • Meet legal, regulatory, tax, accounting, or compliance obligations

Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and why it was collected.

We may retain aggregated, anonymized, or deidentified information that no longer reasonably identifies an individual.

9. Data Security

Puffify uses reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.

However, no method of transmitting or storing information is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Users and merchants are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of their account credentials and should notify Puffify promptly if they believe their account has been compromised.

Information you provide directly to a third party is governed by that third party’s privacy policy and terms.

Even if you opt out of marketing communications, we may continue sending non-promotional messages necessary to operate or administer your account or the Services.

13. Privacy Preference Signals

Some browsers and devices provide privacy preference signals or universal opt-out mechanisms.

Where applicable law requires Puffify to recognize a legally valid browser-based opt-out preference signal, Puffify will process that signal as required by applicable law.

14. International Users

Puffify is operated in the United States and is primarily intended for users in the United States.

If you access Puffify from outside the United States, your information may be transferred to, stored in, and processed in the United States or other jurisdictions where Puffify’s service providers operate.

Data protection laws in those jurisdictions may differ from those in your country.
