Privacy Policy

JewishPassings.com is committed to protecting the privacy of our visitors and subscribers. We have prepared the following statement to inform users how information is gathered and used by us. This policy may be updated from time to time without prior notice, so please check back periodically.

Our E-Mail Lists

This site makes e-mail list sign-up available to its users. We do not subscribe people to these lists without their consent or share the e-mail addresses gathered on these lists without your written permission. We strongly believe that you should easily be able to unsubscribe from our newsletters if you no longer wish to receive them. You can cancel your subscription at any time by contacting us. There is also a link allowing you to unsubscribe at the bottom of the newsletter itself.

When You Submit a Notice

When you contact us to post a notice and/or obituary, we use that information to include in the e-newsletter. We may also keep a record of that correspondence. Please keep in mind that the information provided can be viewed and used by others. We are not responsible for unsolicited messages you receive as a result of posting the information in our newsletter.

When we post previously published notices from a third party, we use this information solely for the purposes of reporting it to other subscribers of the e-newsletter. Because we operate in an on-line environment, the information provided can be viewed and used by others. We are not responsible for unsolicited messages you receive as a result of reading the information in our newsletter.

Other

Certain non-personal identification information about our visitors and subscribers is collected through the use of “cookie” technology and/or IP address tracking. Non-personal identification information might include the browser you use, the domain name of your internet service provider, type of computer, the operating systems, and other similar information. Our system also automatically gathers information about the areas you visit on our site and newsletter.

We use such information in the aggregate to understand how our users as a group use the services and resources provided on jewishpassings.com and for other market research purposes. This way we know which areas are the favorites of our visitors, which areas need improvement, and what technologies are being used so that we may continually improve our site. We may share Aggregate Information with our business partners, clients, and other third parties for advertising, promotional, and other purposes.

Some of our advertisers may display ads on our sites which solicit or contain technology to collect information about our users for the advertisers, but we will not permit such advertisers to collect any personal information from our users within our sites.

Use of Personal Information without Consent

We may use personal information, without the knowledge or consent of the individual, only pursuant to a court order, government agency or by law; to permit us to investigate suspected fraud, harassment, or other violations of the law, rule, or regulation; or to investigate any suspected conduct which we deem improper.

Links to Other Websites

This Website may contain links to other websites. Please be aware that we are not responsible for the privacy practices of other sites. We encourage you to be aware when you access any such third party links and to read the privacy policies of each website that you access. This Privacy Policy only applies to information collected by us.
