NEW PRIVACY POLICY
Last updated effective March 27, 2025
1. Introduction
We want you to be familiar with how we collect, use, and disclose your Personally Identifiable Information (defined below). This Privacy Policy outlines the type of information that we collect and receive from and about you via the OhThanks Sites and Features and our Services (both as defined below), and our data practices related thereto. Please review this Privacy Policy carefully, especially before providing any Personal Information (defined below) through the OhThanks Sites and Features or our Services. The OhThanks Sites and Features and our Services are generally operated in and controlled from the United States of America, unless otherwise stated.
OhThanks Sites and Features and our Services may collect and use location-aware and cross-device data for advertising and other purposes.
IF YOU DO NOT WISH US TO COLLECT, USE, AND DISCLOSE INFORMATION AS DESCRIBED IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY, PLEASE DO NOT USE ANY OF THE OHTHANKS SITES AND FEATURES OR OUR SERVICES.
Notice of Terms of Use, Including Arbitration: Your use of the OhThanks Sites and Features and our Services is subject to our Terms of Use, which provides for binding individual arbitration of any disputes which may arise in connection with such use. Please note that your use of the OhThanks Sites and Features or our Services constitutes your express agreement to our Terms of Use, including its arbitration provisions and class action waiver. Please read the Terms of Use—including the arbitration provisions—carefully, and do not use any of the OhThanks Sites and Features or our Services if you do not agree.
This Privacy Policy applies to the OhThanks Sites and to all of the features, websites, mobile applications, Internet browser extensions, emails, online services and other functionalities (collectively, the “Features”) available via or related to the OhThanks Sites, whether accessed via a computer, mobile device, or other devices you use (each a "Device" and collectively, “Devices”), or otherwise (collectively, the “OhThanks Sites and Features”), and the services available on or through the OhThanks Sites and Features, including our emails and other electronic communications (collectively, “our Services”). Unless specifically stated, this Privacy Policy only covers information we collect through OhThanks Sites and Features and our Services and does not cover any information we receive or collect offline or that is collected by any unrelated websites or companies to which we may provide links. Please contact us with any questions regarding this Privacy Policy and our privacy practices as instructed in Section 20 (Contact Us) of this Privacy Policy below.
2. Information We Collect Directly
When you visit any OhThanks Sites and Features or use any of our Services, you may disclose and/or we may automatically collect information from you. In this Privacy Policy, “Personal Information” (or “PI”) refers to any information that can reasonably be used to identify, contact or locate you, including information or data defined as personal information or personal data under applicable state law. Examples of PI may include, without limitation, your name, your precise geo-location, your credit card number, your email address, your mailing address, and your telephone number. We also collect, and may create from PI, information about you that is not PI (“Non-PI”). If we combine PI collected via OhThanks Sites and Features or our Services with other of your PI or with Non-PI, that combined data will be treated as PI subject to this Privacy Policy.
PI and Non-PI may be collected on, through, or in connection with any of the OhThanks Sites and Features or our Services. Tracking Technologies (defined below) may be placed on your Devices when you click on an affiliate or Ad Network (defined below) link. In addition, we may collect, among other things, certain information automatically, including, but not limited to the type of mobile Device you use, the IP address of your mobile Device, your mobile operating system, the type of mobile Internet browsers you use, and information about the way you use the mobile application.
You may be able to limit data collection by changing the settings on your Device (but our services and features may lose functionality as a result), or as otherwise explained in the sections below.
3. Information We Receive from Third Parties
We may also receive and supplement the information we directly collect from or about you with information from third parties, including Trusted Third Parties (defined below), , which will be governed by this Privacy Policy.
4. Use and Disclosure of Information
We use the PI and Non-PI we collect about you in order to: (i) provide you with our Services; (ii) operate and improve the OhThanks Sites and Features; (iii) provide advertising, content, special offers, and promotions (collectively, “Offers”); and (iv) for other marketing, administrative, operational, business, and commercial purposes subject to applicable law and not inconsistent with this Privacy Policy or other notice by us at collection (collectively, our “Data Purposes”). We may use and disclose Non-PI for any purpose that is consistent with applicable law and this Privacy Policy, or any other notice by us at collection. Without limitation, your PI and Non-PI may be used by itself, aggregated, or combined with unique identifiers, and disclosed to (a) our parent companies, subsidiaries, sister companies, trusted agents and affiliated Services that we own and/or operate (“Affiliates”); and (b) our vendors, advertisers, merchants, survey partners, joint business ventures, and other trusted third parties (collectively, “Trusted Third Parties”) (some of whom may offer Third Party Services (defined below)), for purposes related to our business, including, without limitation, advertising, attribution, measurement of campaigns, analytics and research, and our other Data Purposes as permitted by applicable law.

7. Third Party Services
The OhThanks Sites and Features contain links to, or otherwise enable the opportunity to interact with other websites and services provided by Trusted Third Parties (such as when you link to their site to transact with them to purchase their products or services) that we do not own, operate or control (“Third Party Services”). In addition, because aspects of the OhThanks Sites and Features include third-party Offers, Third Party Services may collect your information based on your interaction with those Offers, including via Tracking Technologies (defined and discussed below). In addition, by interacting with Offers via OhThanks Sites and Features or our Services, you authorize and direct us to disclose your PI and Non-PI to Third Party Services making Offers, and for them to disclose Offer-related activity data and other information to us. This helps us and them make and fulfill Offers, including facilitating your communications or transactions with them, authenticating and/or validating your identification, and for our other Data Purposes.
Except as legally required for our vendors, the privacy and other practices of Third Party Services are not covered by this Privacy Policy, and we are not responsible for their privacy or other practices. We encourage our users to be aware of and to read the privacy statements, terms of service and similar disclosures and conditions of Third Party Services that collect PI or other data before visiting or otherwise interacting with those services.
For more information on Third Party Services, see sections 8, 9, 11 and 12 of this Privacy Policy (Advertising Networks, Session Replay, Artificial Intelligence, and Analytics Companies, Card Linked Offer Programs and Social Features).
8. Advertising Networks
Companies that host networks connecting advertisers with delivery platforms for digital advertising (collectively, “Ad Networks”), which are Third Party Services, may provide advertising based on your interests, as reflected in your use of OhThanks Sites and Features and our Services, as well as your use of other websites and services. Some of these Ad Networks may place Tracking Technologies (defined below) on your Devices, allowing them to recognize you and/or your Device each time they send you, or you interact with, an online advertisement. Ads themselves may also include Tracking Technologies. In this way, Ad Networks may compile information about where you see advertisements online and determine which ads you click on, so, for instance, that we and they may provide you with Offers or advertisements believed to be of most interest to you, and to provide tracking, attribution and credit for advertisements that you choose to interact with. We are not the data controller for the Tracking Technologies that may be placed by these third parties on your Devices, nor do we have responsibility for these third parties’ privacy policies or information collection practices. You may limit or remove such Tracking Technologies through your Device settings; for more information, visit section 10(ii) (What Are My Cookie Choices?) below.

10. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
i. Use of Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We set and access, and third parties (including Trusted Third Parties) may set and access, cookies, web beacons, embedded scripts, pixels , tags, , and other tracking technologies (collectively, “Tracking Technologies”) on your Devices in connection with your use of OhThanks Sites and Features or our Services. Such third parties (“Cookie Operators”) may collect information across various channels using Tracking Technologies for purposes of delivering more relevant Offers to you or other Data Purposes. We may use a variety of Tracking Technologies in connection with our Data Purposes. Tracking Technologies may automatically capture PI and other information, including, without limitation, your IP Address, UDID, and browser or operating system type and version, contents of your communications, interactions, and may detect whether your Device or software has certain capabilities such as a microphone or webcam access. We and Third Party Services generally use Tracking Technologies and the information they generate to support the OhThanks Sites and Features and our Services or Third Party Services, including, for instance: (i) by offering you surveys, shopping, and other targeted Offers; (ii) for identity verification; (iii) for analytics; (iv) to ensure compliance with our programs; and (v) to identify and honor your choices (such as opt-outs). Tracking Technologies may also be used as follows: (a) to provide you with convenience when you access the OhThanks Sites and Features or our Services by remembering that you have visited us before and by remembering your username, password and other user information, and your preferences to help you avoid future re-entry of certain information; (b) to allow us and Third Party Services to understand or predict your interests so we and they can personalize your experience on OhThanks Sites and Features or our Services and elsewhere online, across Devices, web browsers, email, mobile and other applications. In doing so, we and Third Party Services may link the information collected from Tracking Technologies, and from other sources, with other of your PI and Non-PI, and we and they may track your web-browsing and other activity in order to provide you with Offers and for our or their other Data Purposes); (c) for analytical and statistical purposes, quality control, validation and verification purposes, and to improve the services we and Third Party Services offer; and (d) Third Party Services may link the information we disclose to them (or that they collect) to cookies stored on your browser or Devices, and they may collect information such as your IP address, browser or operating system type and version, and inferred-interest information. Third Party Services may use this information to recognize you across different channels and platforms, including but not limited to, computers, mobile devices, and Smart TVs, over time for advertising, analytics, attribution, and reporting purposes. For example, Third Party Services may deliver an advertisement to you in your web browser based on a purchase you made in a physical retail store, or they may send a personalized marketing email to you because you visited a particular website. Our mobile applications may include Tracking Technologies that disclose your Device’s precise geo-location and other details about your Device (like hardware characteristics, a variety of sensor data, and a list and history of installed third-party applications) to Third Party Services who may use this information to generate Offers for you, for advertising, attribution, measurement of campaigns, analytics, and research, and their or our other Data Purposes. See instructions to limit or disable such tracking in section 10(ii) below; but be aware that limiting such tracking will affect some Device or mobile application functionality and may limit your ability to use our Services, complete Offers and earn rewards.
ii. What Are My Cookie Choices?
Cookies may include a small data file which is stored on your systems. We use both session cookies and persistent cookies. For the session cookies, once you close your browser, the cookie terminates. A persistent cookie is a small text file stored on your hard drive for an extended period of time. Persistent cookies can be removed or disabled by following your web browser help-file directions.
You can exercise control over browser-based cookies by adjusting the settings on your browser, and mobile Devices may offer ad and data limitation choices. Please note that when you use cookie control tools, you will have to change your settings for each browser and Device you use, and your limitation on cookies can limit the functionality of online services you use, including OhThanks Sites and Features and our Services. Use the help function on your browser or click on the applicable links below to learn more:
If you block cookies in this manner, OhThanks Sites and Features and our Services, may not operate as intended.
One use of cookies is interest-based advertising. To learn more about internet-based advertising in general, and exercise certain opt-outs that some companies provide, which may include use of geo-location, cross-device data-directed, and/or “audience matched advertising” ads, please visit the following ad industry self-regulatory resources:
| Digital Advertising Alliance (Web Browser Opt-Out) | http://www.aboutads.info/choices |
| Digital Advertising Alliance (Mobile App Opt-Out) | http://www.aboutads.info/appchoices |
We support these self-regulatory programs and expect the Third Party Services we work with to do so as well.
We are not responsible for the completeness, accuracy or effectiveness of any third-party cookie-choice programs or tools. If you exercise these choice controls they may need to be compiled on each browser and Device you use, and if they use a cookie to signal your opt-out, your choice may no longer be recognizable if you later clear or block cookies. Not accepting cookies (or opting out of cookies), installing ad blocking technologies, and/or disabling analytics providers may make certain features of the OhThanks Sites and Features and our Services unavailable to you and may affect our ability to validate whether or not you qualified for a reward by successfully completing an Offer.
Note that your browser settings may allow you to automatically transmit a “Do Not Track” signal to websites and online services you visit. Like many websites and online services, we currently do not alter our practices when we receive a “Do Not Track” signal from a user’s browser. To find out more about “Do Not Track,” you may wish to visit http://www.allaboutdnt.com.

13. Disclosure of Data
In addition to the other types of data disclosures described throughout this Privacy Policy, we may also disclose your PI and Non-PI as described in this section. We may disclose your PI and Non-PI when required by law, or where we have a good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with a judicial or administrative proceeding, a criminal investigation, a court order, or legal process served on us. We may also disclose your PI and Non-PI upon request to governmental authorities conducting an investigation, or if we in our sole discretion believe there to be a credible situation that requires us to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud or abuse, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, or violations of our Terms of Use or Privacy Policy for any of the OhThanks Sites and Features or our Services. We may also use IP addresses, or Device, activity or session identifiers to identify users, and we reserve the right (in our sole discretion) to do so in cooperation with Third Party Services, as well as copyright owners, Internet service providers, wireless service providers, or law enforcement agencies, without notice to you. We may also disclose your PI to Third Party Services in connection with their performance of services to, or on behalf of, the OhThanks Sites and Features or our Services (and vice versa) and for our Data Purposes. Please see section 15 (Updating Your Information, Choice and Opt-Out) below for information about how you can opt out of such disclosures.
14. Business Transactions
In the event OhThanks or any of its Affiliates is involved with a business transition, such as a financing, merger, consolidation, restructuring, acquisition by another company, sale or assignment of rights or assets (or a portion thereof), or other company change, we may transfer your and other users’ information, including PI and Non-PI, and other business data in connection with that business transaction (e.g., to a subsequent owner or operator of OhThanks Sites or any of our Services, or any affiliates, agents, vendors, or partners of the foregoing), including during the course of any due diligence process (collectively, “Business Transactions”).
15. OMITTED.
16. Notification of Privacy Policy Updates
We reserve the right to make changes to this Privacy Policy from time to time via updates. If we decide to make an update with material changes to this Privacy Policy, we will provide notice of the update by posting links to the updated Privacy Policy in places on the OhThanks Sites and Features deemed appropriate by us so our users are always aware of what PI and other information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances it may be disclosed to others. Your continued use of any of the OhThanks Sites and Features and our Services after the update links are posted, constitutes your acceptance of the updated Privacy Policy as to any continued use of the OhThanks Sites and Features and our Services, including our future use of PI or other information previously or thereafter collected in accordance with the updated Privacy Policy. If you do not accept the changes, please immediately discontinue your use of any OhThanks Sites and Features and our Services and close your account with us.
17. Children's Privacy
The OhThanks Sites and Features and our Services are for general audiences, and we do not knowingly collect any personal information (as defined by the federal Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”)) from children younger than the age of 13. If you are under the age of majority (18 in most states and provinces), you should use the OhThanks Sites and Features and our Services only with the permission and guidance of your parent or guardian. If you are under 13, you should not use our Service. If we learn that we have inadvertently collected personal information from a child younger than 13, we will take actions as required by COPPA.
18. Security
We maintain security measures in place to help protect against the loss, misuse and alteration of the PI and other information under our control. Please be advised, however, that the Internet and other technologies and communication channels are, by their nature, not entirely secure, and your PI and Non-PI may therefore be subject to interception or loss which is beyond our reasonable control. While we strive to protect your PI and Non-PI, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any PI or Non-PI you transmit to us or that we otherwise collect, and any transmission is done at your own risk. Accordingly, as permitted by applicable law, we assume no responsibility or liability for disclosure of your PI or Non-PI due to errors in transmission, unauthorized third-party access, or other causes beyond our reasonable control.
19. Location of Processing and Applicable Law
Although we generally maintain our user data in the United States, it is possible that some of the data processing may occur outside of the United States, carried out by companies or individuals under contract with us. While the data protection laws of these countries may vary, we will make every reasonable effort to protect your PI in accordance with this Privacy Policy. By using the OhThanks Sites and Features and our Services, you consent to this transfer of your PI and Non-PI to any server used by OhThanks Sites or its vendors from time to time.
The interpretation and application of this Privacy Policy shall be governed by the laws of the United States and the State of California without regard to its conflict of law provisions. Except as otherwise expressly provided in our Terms of Use, your use of the OhThanks Sites and Features or our Services are not intended to subject us to the laws or jurisdiction of any state, country or territory other than that of the United States and the State of California.
