We ask that you bookmark and periodically review this Privacy Policy to ensure continuing familiarity with the most current version. If you do not agree with the terms and conditions of this Privacy Policy, please immediately cease using and accessing the Site.

3. Information We Collect

You will be informed each time our Site asks for information and how we intend to use your data. VMI collects information from you in two ways: information you give to us, and information that we gather from your use of our Service, collectively known as “Personally Identifiable Information” or “PII”.

  • “Personal Information” means information that personally identifies you, such as your first and last name, email address, physical address, telephone number, or billing information.
  • “Non-Personal Information” means information that does not specifically identify you.

3.1 Information You Give to Us

We collect information that you give to us. For example, you may provide your email address or other information to receive newsletters and notifications about certain features of our Service.

3.2 Information We Collect Automatically

We, like many websites, collect information about what parts of our Service you use and how you use them. This may include:

  • Computer or browser information such as your system activity, the domain name of the website from which you linked to our Site, time and duration of your visit, browser type, and browser language.
  • Device information such as your hardware model, operating system, operating system version, mobile device type, unique identifiers, and IP address.
  • Approximate location data (country/region level) derived from your IP address.
  • Cookie identifiers, advertising IDs, and similar tracking technology identifiers (see Section 6).
  • Clickstream and interaction data detailing your engagement with content and advertisements.

3.3 Information from Third-Party Partners

Our advertising, analytics, and affiliate partners may share data about your interactions with their platforms, which may be combined with information we hold. This includes ad interaction data, purchase and click data from affiliate programs, and analytics data from third-party measurement providers.

4. How We Use Your Information

We collect information from you to administer our business activities and to measure and improve our Service. We use your information for the following purposes:

  • To operate, maintain, and improve the Site and its content.
  • To send newsletters and marketing communications where you have subscribed or consented.
  • To respond to your inquiries and provide customer support.
  • To serve and measure personalized and non-personalized advertising.
  • To support our affiliate marketing partnerships and track referral commissions.
  • To conduct analytics and understand user behavior to improve our Service.
  • To show advertising and promotions tailored to your interests.
  • To detect, prevent, and address fraud, security incidents, or technical issues.
  • To comply with applicable laws, regulations, and legal obligations.
  • To enforce our Terms of Use and protect our legal rights.

Affiliate Disclosure: Wizefind.com participates in affiliate marketing programs, both directly with brands and through affiliate networks and platforms such as impact.com (including the Norton/Gen Digital affiliate program) and Booking.com, as well as other programs we may join in the future. We may earn a commission when you click on links on the Site and make a purchase or sign up for a service, at no additional cost to you. This is disclosed in accordance with the U.S. Federal Trade Commission’s Endorsement Guides (16 C.F.R. Part 255) and applicable law. Affiliate compensation does not affect our editorial independence. For full details, please see the “Affiliate Compensation and Material Connection Disclosure” section of our Terms of Use.

We may combine your Personal Information with information obtained from business partners or other companies. If we do so, the combined information will be treated as Personal Information for as long as it remains combined.

5. Information Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell your personal information in the traditional sense. However, under certain privacy laws (e.g., CCPA/CPRA), sharing data with advertising partners for targeted advertising may constitute a “sale” or “sharing”. See Section 9 (Your Privacy Rights) for opt-out options.

We may share your information with third parties in the following circumstances:

  • Consent: We will share Personal Information with third parties when we have your explicit consent to do so.
  • Advertising & Affiliate Partners: We share or permit the collection of data by our advertising and affiliate partners for targeted advertising, affiliate tracking, and measurement, subject to your consent preferences where required.
  • Analytics Providers: We use analytics services to understand how the Site is used. These providers process data on our behalf under data processing agreements.
  • Service Providers: We engage third-party vendors who assist in operating the Site (e.g., web hosting, email delivery, security). These parties are contractually restricted to processing data only on our behalf.
  • Affiliates: We may share information with corporate affiliates of Visicom Media Inc., who will process it consistent with this Policy.
  • Legal Requirements: We may disclose information as required by law, regulation, subpoena, court order, or government request, or to establish or exercise our legal rights.
  • Business Transfers: If VMI undergoes a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you via the Site prior to any such transfer.

We reserve the right to share Non-Personal Information publicly and with our partners, for example in aggregate or anonymized reports. VMI disclaims any liability for third-party actions concerning your information. We urge you to contact third parties directly regarding their use of your information.

6. Cookies, Web Beacons, Tracking Technologies, and Advertising

6.1 Types of Cookies and Technologies We Use

We and our partners use cookies, web beacons, pixel tags, JavaScript, local storage, and similar tracking technologies. These fall into the following categories:

  • Strictly Necessary Cookies: Required for the Site to function properly. Cannot be disabled.
  • Functional/Preference Cookies: Remember your preferences and settings.
  • Analytics Cookies: Help us understand how visitors use the Site (e.g., Google Analytics).
  • Advertising/Targeting Cookies: Used by our ad partners to show relevant, interest-based ads and measure performance.

Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies. You can reset your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, some aspects of the Service may not function properly without cookies. For more information about cookies and how to control and delete them, please visit:

  • www.allaboutcookies.org/manage-cookies/
  • www.aboutads.info/consumers

6.2 IP Addresses

An IP address is used by your computer every time it connects to the Internet. IP addresses are automatically collected by our Site as part of demographic and profile data (“traffic data”). We use your IP address to help diagnose server problems and administer the Site. VMI will not use your IP address to attempt to identify you personally or to build a profile about you beyond what is necessary to provide the services you request.

6.3 Our Advertising and Affiliate Partners

The Site works with the following advertising and affiliate partners, each of whom may place cookies, web beacons, or tracking technologies on your device:

  • Google Display Ads & Google AdSense: Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies and unique device identifiers to serve ads on our Site based on user visits to this and other websites. Users may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google’s Ad Settings. You can review Google’s Advertising Principles at: https://support.google.com/adwordspolicy/answer/1316548. To opt out of Google’s personalized advertising, visit: https://www.google.com/settings/ads. To understand how Google uses data when you use partner sites, visit: https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
  • Yahoo Advertising: Yahoo and its advertising partners use cookies and similar technologies to serve syndicated content, optimization services, and tailored advertising. You can manage your privacy choices and preferences via the Yahoo Privacy Dashboard at: https://guce.yahoo.com/privacy-dashboard.
  • Impact.com Partner Network (including Norton): We participate in affiliate programs operated on the impact.com partnership platform, including the Norton affiliate program operated by Gen Digital Inc. When you click a tracked partner link on the Site (including branded tracking domains operated by impact.com on behalf of its advertisers), impact.com and the relevant advertiser may set cookies or use tracking links, parameters, and pixels to attribute referrals, measure conversions, and calculate commissions. Learn more at: https://impact.com/privacy-policy/ and https://www.gendigital.com/us/en/privacy/privacy-center/.
  • Other Affiliate Programs (Current and Future): We may participate in additional retail, travel, software, cybersecurity, technology, finance, health, wellness, and service affiliate programs beyond those listed above, whether directly with brands or through affiliate networks and platforms such as impact.com, CJ Affiliate, Awin, ShareASale, Rakuten Advertising, or Partnerize. Each partner may place cookies or tracking pixels on your device to attribute referrals and measure conversions. Links to each partner’s privacy policy will be provided as programs are activated. You may opt out of interest-based advertising from many of these partners through the Network Advertising Initiative at: https://optout.networkadvertising.org.

6.4 Consent Management

Visitors from regions requiring explicit consent (such as the EU, UK, and certain US states) will be presented with a cookie consent banner (Consent Management Platform / CMP) on their first visit. Through this banner, you may:

  • Accept all cookies.
  • Reject non-essential cookies.
  • Customize your preferences by category.

You may change or withdraw your consent choices at any time by clicking the “Cookie Settings” link located in the footer of our website.

6.5 Managing Cookies and Opting Out of Interest-Based Advertising

You can manage or opt out of personalized advertising at any time using the following independent resources:

7. Google – Additional Disclosures

Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies and device identifiers to serve ads on our Site. Third-party vendors, including Google, use these tracking technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites on the internet. These vendors may automatically collect:

  • IP address
  • Browser type and version
  • Device information and operating system
  • Interaction data with served advertisements

If you are located in a region that requires user consent (such as the EU, EEA, or UK), our Site deploys a cookie consent banner allowing you to accept, reject, or manage your preferences. When you opt out of personalized advertising, Google and its partners serve non-personalized ads that rely on contextual relevance rather than historical browsing identifiers.

8. Legal Basis for Processing (EU, UK, and GDPR-Equivalent Jurisdictions)

VMI acts as the data controller for personal data processed in connection with the Site. For visitors in the EU, UK, and other jurisdictions requiring a defined lawful basis, we rely on:

  • Consent: Where you have given clear, affirmative, and informed consent (e.g., personalized advertising cookies or email marketing subscriptions). You may withdraw this consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing prior to withdrawal.
  • Legitimate Interests: Where processing is necessary for our legitimate business interests, provided your fundamental rights and interests do not override them (e.g., operating the Site safely, preventing fraud, maintaining site security, and analyzing aggregated audience behavior).
  • Contract Performance: Where processing data is necessary to fulfill a service or contract you have requested.
  • Legal Obligation: Where we are required to process your data to comply with explicit legal or regulatory obligations.

Certain third-party advertising and analytics partners act as independent data controllers for their own respective processing activities.

11. International Data Transfers

Visicom Media Inc. is headquartered in Canada. Your information may be transferred to, stored, or processed in countries other than your country of residence—including the United States and Canada—which may maintain distinct data protection laws from your home jurisdiction.

For structural transfers of personal data originating from the EU, EEA, or UK, we rely on:

By continuing to use the Site, you acknowledge and agree that your data may be transferred internationally. You may request detailed information regarding active transfer safeguards by contacting us.

12. Children’s Privacy

12.1 COPPA (Children Under 13)

We fully comply with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). Our Service is not directed to, nor intended for, children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect, maintain, or disclose Personal Information from children under 13. If you believe we have inadvertently collected such information, please contact us immediately at sysadmin @ vmn.net and we will promptly purge it from our systems.

12.2 Children Between the Ages of 13 and 18

If you are between the ages of 13 and 18, please ensure you review this Privacy Policy with your parent or legal guardian and obtain their permission before transmitting any Personal Information to us.

12.3 GDPR / UK GDPR (Children Under 16)

For users located within the EU, EEA, and UK, our structural consent mechanisms require verified parental or guardian consent for users under 16 years of age (or the applicable lower age threshold established by individual EU member states) for data processing based on consent.

12.4 Information for Parents

We strongly encourage parents to monitor and spend time online with their children to become familiar with the types of content available on the internet. We do not require a child to disclose more information than is reasonably necessary to participate in any Site activity. Parents may request a review, modification, or total removal of their child’s Personal Information at any time by contacting us at sysadmin @ vmn.net.

13. Data Security and Confidentiality

We strictly limit operational access to your personal information to employees and contracted vendors of VMI who reasonably require access to that information to perform their jobs or to deliver requested products and services. We maintain appropriate physical, electronic, administrative, and procedural safeguards designed to protect and restrict unauthorized access to personal information.

Specific security measures deployed include:

  • Enforced encryption of data in transit using industry-standard TLS/SSL protocols.
  • Strict access controls, role-based permissions, and multi-factor authentication requirements for internal personnel.
  • Regular security risk assessments and technical vulnerability monitoring.
  • Data minimization and pseudonymization practices where commercially viable.

Please note that no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage can be guaranteed 100% secure. In the event of a confirmed data breach affecting your rights and freedoms, we will notify affected individuals and relevant supervisory authorities as required by applicable laws (e.g., within 72 hours for GDPR/UK GDPR compliance; as promptly as required under applicable US state frameworks).

14. Fair Information Practices

The Fair Information Practices Principles form the foundation of privacy law in the United States, and their structural concepts play a globally significant role in the ongoing development of international data protection laws. To align with Fair Information Practices, we commit to notifying you via an on-site alert or email notice within 7 business days should a material data breach occur.

We also explicitly agree to the Individual Redress Principle, which legally requires that individuals maintain enforceable rights against data collectors and processors who fail to adhere to statutory compliance frameworks. This principle establishes that individuals have clear recourse to judicial systems or government oversight agencies to investigate and prosecute non-compliance by data processors.

15. Email Communications – CAN-SPAM, CASL, and GDPR Compliance

We collect your email address primarily to send requested information, respond to direct inquiries, and distribute newsletters or promotional offers.

In strict accordance with CAN-SPAM, CASL, and GDPR email compliance, we agree to the following protocols:

  • We will never use false, misleading, or deceptive subjects or email addresses.
  • We will clearly identify commercial messages as advertisements in a reasonable, transparent manner.
  • We will display the physical mailing address of our corporate or site headquarters within all electronic mailings.
  • We will continuously monitor any third-party email marketing services we employ for strict legal compliance.
  • We will honor opt-out and unsubscribe requests promptly (within 10 business days for CAN-SPAM; immediately for CASL).
  • We will provide a clear, functional “Unsubscribe” link at the baseline of every marketing email.
  • We will only send commercial electronic messages to Canadian residents with express or implied consent under CASL.
  • We will only distribute marketing emails to EU/UK residents based on explicit consent or documented legitimate interest grounds under the GDPR.

If at any time you wish to stop receiving future marketing emails, you can follow the unsubscribe instructions located at the bottom of any email or contact us via our Site Contact Page. Transactional, security, or service-related emails are not subject to standard promotional unsubscribe requests.

16. Global Privacy Control (GPC) and Cookie Settings

We prioritize automated user privacy selections. While traditional browser “Do Not Track” (DNT) signals lack an industry-standard definition and are widely unsupported by third-party ad networks, we fully support the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal where required by law (including California and other US states).

If your browser or device transmits a valid GPC opt-out signal, our Site reads it as a programmatic request to opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information for cross-context targeted advertising purposes. All other visitors can reliably manage tracking preferences via our cookie consent banner or by interacting with the “Cookie Settings” link located in the footer of our webpage.

17. External Links

By its nature, our Site contains hyperlinks to external, third-party websites (including affiliate retail platforms, booking engines, and ad networks). Please be aware that VMI does not control, and cannot be held responsible for, the privacy or information collection practices of third-party websites. We strongly encourage you to review the individual privacy policies of any external site you visit before interacting with it or submitting personal data.

18. Accessibility

We are deeply committed to making this Privacy Policy fully accessible to all users. If you require access to this Policy in an alternative, assistive format, please contact us at sysadmin @ vmn.net.

19. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to update this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changing technical, commercial, or regulatory demands. The “Last Updated” date positioned at the top of this document will always reflect the most recent modification. Material changes will be actively communicated via a clear notice on our homepage or via direct email where legally mandated. Your continued use of the Site following the posting of modifications constitutes full acceptance of the revised terms.

Historical archives of prior policy versions can be formally requested by contacting us directly.
