Privacy Policy

Updated: February 28, 2024

Welcome to UniGuide! We are dedicated to respecting the privacy and security of our visitors and customers. UniGuide Media LLC, which includes our website, located at www.uniguide.com, as well as social media channels, is dedicated to nature and animal lovers, spiritual seekers, and mythology fans. 

This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, protect, and share information gathered about you in connection with your use of UniGuide, our blog, e-commerce platform, and social media channels. By accessing or using UniGuide.com and other UniGuide properties, you agree to the terms outlined in this policy.

Information We Collect

We collect information in two categories:

Personally Identifiable Information (PII)

This includes information that can be used to identify you personally, such as your name, email address, shipping address, payment information, and any other details you provide when making a purchase or signing up for an account on UniGuide.

Non-Personally Identifiable Information

This encompasses data that cannot be used to identify you personally, such as your browsing history, preferences, and interaction with our website, collected through cookies and similar technologies.

How We Use Your Information

UniGuide only uses your information to ensure you have a great experience on UniGuide and our social media profiles and to best serve you when you visit and shop with us. Here’s how we use your information:

• To Fulfill Your Orders: We use your PII to process and ship your orders, and to communicate with you about your order status.
• To Improve Our Website: We analyze non-PII to enhance our content, products, and services, ensuring they align with the interests of our community.
• To Communicate With You: We may use your information to send you emails about your orders if you shop with us and other important updates, with your consent.

Sharing Your Information

We value your privacy and do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties. We may share your information with service providers who assist us in our operations, such as payment processing and product fulfillment and shipping, under strict confidentiality agreements.

Your Choices and Rights

You have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal information that is stored with us. You can also opt-out of receiving promotional communications at any time by following the unsubscribe link in our emails.

Security Measures

We implement robust security measures to protect your information from unauthorized access, alteration, or destruction. However, no internet-based site can be 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Advertisements, Affiliate Offerings, and Sponsored Links

If you click on a third party advertisement or an affiliate link (such as one that links to Amazon.com) on UniGuide, and you go to a third party’s website, that third party site may track information regarding your visit or collect personal information that you submit. UniGuide does not have control over, or knowledge of, how or whether this occurs so you should read that site’s privacy policy if you want to learn about how that site might use your information.

Mediavine Programmatic Advertising (Ver 1.1)

The Website works with Mediavine to manage third-party interest-based advertising appearing on the Website. Mediavine serves content and advertisements when you visit the Website, which may use first and third-party cookies. A cookie is a small text file which is sent to your computer or mobile device (referred to in this policy as a “device”) by the web server so that a website can remember some information about your browsing activity on the Website.

First party cookies are created by the website that you are visiting. A third-party cookie is frequently used in behavioral advertising and analytics and is created by a domain other than the website you are visiting. Third-party cookies, tags, pixels, beacons and other similar technologies (collectively, “Tags”) may be placed on the Website to monitor interaction with advertising content and to target and optimize advertising. Each internet browser has functionality so that you can block both first and third-party cookies and clear your browser’s cache. The “help” feature of the menu bar on most browsers will tell you how to stop accepting new cookies, how to receive notification of new cookies, how to disable existing cookies and how to clear your browser’s cache. For more information about cookies and how to disable them, you can consult the information at All About Cookies.

Without cookies you may not be able to take full advantage of the Website content and features. Please note that rejecting cookies does not mean that you will no longer see ads when you visit our Site. In the event you opt-out, you will still see non-personalized advertisements on the Website.

The Website collects the following data using a cookie when serving personalized ads:

• IP Address
• Operating System type
• Operating System version
• Device Type
• Language of the website
• Web browser type
• Email (in hashed form)

Mediavine Partners (companies listed below with whom Mediavine shares data) may also use this data to link to other end user information the partner has independently collected to deliver targeted advertisements. Mediavine Partners may also separately collect data about end users from other sources, such as advertising IDs or pixels, and link that data to data collected from Mediavine publishers in order to provide interest-based advertising across your online experience, including devices, browsers and apps. This data includes usage data, cookie information, device information, information about interactions between users and advertisements and websites, geolocation data, traffic data, and information about a visitor’s referral source to a particular website. Mediavine Partners may also create unique IDs to create audience segments, which are used to provide targeted advertising.

If you would like more information about this practice and to know your choices to opt-in or opt-out of this data collection, please visit National Advertising Initiative opt out page. You may also visit Digital Advertising Alliance website and Network Advertising Initiative website to learn more information about interest-based advertising. You may download the AppChoices app at Digital Advertising Alliance’s AppChoices app to opt out in connection with mobile apps, or use the platform controls on your mobile device to opt out.

Children

UniGuide’s main audience is not children and we do not create content designed for children. However, we may share stories about children in some of our content, such as in folklore and mythology, or share information about products and services that are designed for children, but we do not collect, either online or offline, Personal Information from children. We do not want children to comment on UniGuide blog posts. If we learn that we have collected any personal information from a child under the age of 13 without verifiable parental consent, we will delete that information from our database as quickly as possible. If you believe that we have received information from a person under 13, please contact us by sending a message at support@uniguide.biz.
