Ok gott fólk…lesiði þá bara privacy policyið þeirra :)
Xpango are committed to protecting your privacy. We hope the following privacy policy (“Privacy Policy”) will help you understand how we collect and protect the personal information you provide to us when registering with the Xpango.com web site (the “Site”) and by Xpango Ltd.
We are committed to making your use of the Site easy and enjoyable as possible. Please take a moment to read the following Privacy Policy to determine how your personal information will be treated as you make full use of our offers.
By using the Site, or providing the information requested by the Site, or by continuing to use the Site after having an opportunity to review this Privacy Policy, you agree to accept the terms of our Privacy Policy and our use of the information we collect. If you do not agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy, please do not use the Site.
Xpango Ltd reserves the right to modify this Privacy Policy at any time without giving you prior notice. Your use of the Site following any such modification constitutes your agreement to be bound by this Privacy Policy as modified. The last date this Privacy Policy was revised or modified is set forth below (“Effective Date”).
I. What personally identifiable information does Xpango.com collect from me and how does Xpango.com use my information?
To create an account, we collect your name, email address, and a shipping address. We also collect a password that you create, which you may change in the ‘My Account’ page of our site. We will initially use this information to set up your account, to send you a registration confirmation email and to log your shipping information so that we know where to send your order.
Referral emails that you initiate from the “Refer Friends” page of your Xpango.com account will be sent out by Xpango.com on your behalf and will either display your email address or that of “support@xpango.com” in the email “From” field. Referral email addresses are only used to deliver user-initiated communications. Xpango.com will not collect and use these referral email addresses for any other purpose or manner.
Although Xpango.com may have independently received similar information from your use of the Site, Xpango.com does not have access to any additional information that you provide on a third party hosted site (i.e. if you complete an offer such as Blockbuster.com, Xpango do not have access to the information you submit to Blockbuster).
All information provided to our third party business partners is subject to the posted privacy policies of our third party business partners.
When you place an order, your shipping information is sent to a vendor who will fulfill and ship your product(s). Our suppliers will also safeguard your personal information and are contractually prohibited from disclosing your personal information to other parties for any reason. They will not have access to any referral information you provide.
II. Completing 3rd Party Offers to gain Credits with Xpango.com
Our goal is to deliver offers to customers who we believe will find them of value. Offers are developed and managed under strict conditions designed to safeguard the security and privacy of customer personal information. When you click on an offer, you will be redirected to that advertiser's site. An instruction box will appear explaining to which offer you are being redirected. Although the site may still display a Xpango.com address on the landing page, you are in fact on a third party offer provider's website, and any information you submit will be transmitted to this third party.
As a member of the Site, we will be sending transactional emails for various reasons as you continue to use our site. For example, a welcome email will be sent thanking you for joining, or an email telling you an order has shipped, etc. These emails are required for logistical purposes and users cannot opt-out of these types of emails.
If you contact Xpango.com, we may keep a record of that correspondence. Wherever Xpango.com collects personal information, we make an effort to include a link to this Privacy Policy on that specified page.
With your consent, Xpango.com may from time to time send commercial e-mails with additional Xpango offers and information about New gifts available from Xpango. Xpango.com is committed to ethical and responsible e-mail practices. Accordingly, Xpango.com strives to make sure that all commercial e-mails sent by Xpango.com are compliant with the Can-Spam Act of 2003. Members may opt-out of receiving promotional mailings by clicking on the opt-out link contained in the body of any commercial e-mail sent by Xpango.com or by unsubscribing from commercial e-mail by logging into your Member account on Xpango.com, clicking on the unsubscribe link and entering the e-mail address that you wish to unsubscribe from further commercial e-mail messages from Xpango.com.
Please note that we can only allow one account per household. This rule exists to protect our advertising partners, as it serves to engender high quality, unique leads. Potential users who reside in households with multiple people are recommended to share an account.
Xpango will NOT disclose the personal information that you supply to us on the main signup page to bring selected retail opportunities to our members via direct mail, email and telemarketing. Keep in mind that if you take advantage of an offer from a Xpango.com business partner and thus, become their customer, they may independently wish to send offers to you. In the event that you are not interested in receiving future offers from these affiliates, you must contact them directly to fulfill your list removal request.
We reserve the right to disclose your personally identifiable information as required by law and when we believe that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights and/or to comply with a judicial proceeding, court order, or legal process served on our Site. If your personally identifiable information changes, you may update it by making the necessary edits by logging into your account at Xpango.com and clicking on the ‘Edit My Details’ link.
To deactivate an account, please contact Customer Service directly with this request.

We link cookies to personally identifiable information so that we may track your activities on the Site in order to credit you for completing a third party offer. Most Web browsers automatically accept cookies, but if you choose to disable the use of cookies, you will run the risk of not receiving proper credit for completing an offer. Some of our business partners (e.g., advertisers/offer providers) may use cookies on our site. We have no access to or control over these types of cookies.
III. Who is collecting information?
When you are on a Site and are asked for personal information, you are sharing that information with Xpango.com, unless it is specifically stated otherwise in this Privacy Policy or in a 3rd party offer that you may be asked to complete as part of utilizing the service.

b. Other: Xpango.com may also disclose account information in special cases when we have reason to believe that disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be violating Xpango.com's policies or may be causing injury to or interference with (either intentionally or unintentionally) Xpango.com's rights or property, other Xpango.com users, or anyone else that could be harmed by such activities. Xpango.com may disclose or access account information when we believe in good faith that the law requires it and for administrative and other purposes that we deem necessary to maintain, service, and improve our products and services. Lastly, Xpango.com may disclose a users e-mail address as part of a suppression file or do-not-e-mail list to its partners and affiliates to make sure that a users unsubscribe requests are forwarded to the appropriate parties to ensure removal of the user from partner and affiliate databases in compliance with law, including without limitation, the Can-Spam Act of 2003.
c. Acquisitions. As Xpango.com develops, we may buy other businesses or their assets or sell our business assets. Customer information is generally one of the business assets involved in such transactions. Thus, in the event that Xpango.com or all of its assets are acquired, customer information, including any visitor information collected through the Site, would be one of the transferred assets.
V. What security precautions are in place to protect the loss, misuse, or alteration of my information?
The security of your personal information is important to us. We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. However, no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
Account information for Xpango.com members are password-protected so that you and only you have access to this personal information. You may edit your Xpango.com account information by logging into your Member account on Xpango.com, clicking on the ‘Edit My Details’ link and update your personal information.
We recommend that you do not divulge your password to anyone. Xpango.com will never ask you for your password in an unsolicited phone call or in an unsolicited email. Also remember to sign out of your Xpango.com account and close your browser window when you have finished your session. This is to ensure that others cannot access your personal information and correspondence if you share a computer with someone else or are using a computer in a public place like a library.
