DO WE SHARE YOUR INFORMATION?

The information gathered will be shared with Gea Somma Inc.’s family of companies. We also may share this information with other third parties, including companies with which we have a relationship. For example:

• Gea Somma Inc. (www.GeaSomma.com) operates the web site where you can access the CelebrateBoutique.comâ„¢ registry or register for your own wedding. When you use that website, both CelebrateBoutique.comâ„¢ and Gea Somma Inc. receive your information.
• CelebrateBoutique.comâ„¢ may enter into a "co-branding" relationship with another website that offers you products or services (e.g., flowers). In those cases, you may link from CelebrateBoutique.comâ„¢ to another site to purchase the item. In that case, both CelebrateBoutique.comâ„¢ and the other web site may receive your information.
• CelebrateBoutique.comâ„¢ may team with a partner to conduct a sweepstakes or other event (e.g., a live web chat). In those cases, each of the participating web sites may collect or receive personal information from you.
• For some of our products, CelebrateBoutique.comâ„¢ may provide you with a link to the supplier of that product so that you may get further information. If you link to the supplier's site, the supplier may collect or receive information about you according to its stated policy.
• Like other companies, CelebrateBoutique.comâ„¢ may use an outside company to place its advertising banners or links on other sites. In certain cases, the advertiser may collect information on people who click on the banner or link.

In most of the above situations, these third parties will receive your information because you will be visiting their web sites or using their links and, in doing so, you may provide information directly to them. You therefore should refer to their privacy policies to understand how they handle your information and what kinds of choices you have.

CelebrateBoutique.comâ„¢ also may share your personal information with outside companies that perform services for CelebrateBoutique.comâ„¢. For example, we may retain an outside company to manage a database containing certain customer information or to create and distribute an e-mail offering. In those situations, the outside party is performing work for CelebrateBoutique.comâ„¢, and CelebrateBoutique.comâ„¢ takes appropriate steps designed to ensure your information is used only to provide the services requested by CelebrateBoutique.comâ„¢, and not for other purposes.

Additionally, CelebrateBoutique.comâ„¢ may share account or other information when we believe it is necessary to comply with the law or to protect our interests or property. This may include sharing information with other companies, lawyers or government agencies in connection with issues related to fraud or government subpoenas and warrants.

And in the event that some or all of the business assets of CelebrateBoutique.comâ„¢ are sold or transferred, we generally would transfer the corresponding information about our customers.

Finally, CelebrateBoutique.comâ„¢ may share your personal information with unrelated outside companies so that they can directly market their products or services to you if we feel that a company offers products or services that may be of interest to you. We also may provide you with the opportunity to sign-up on our web site to receive such e-mail offers.
