This Privacy Policy describes how BabyNameMatch.com (“BabyNameMatch,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and shares information when you use babynamematch.com and related services (the “Service”). By using the Service, you agree to this Policy.
If you are in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, we process your personal data on these legal bases: performance of a contract (to provide the Service you request); consent (for marketing emails and any non-essential cookies, which you may withdraw at any time); legitimate interests (to secure, analyze, and improve the Service, balanced against your rights); and legal obligation (to comply with applicable law).
We use a small number of technologies that are strictly necessary to run the Service: a session cookie that keeps you signed in, and browser local storage that remembers your preferences and saved names on your device. We do not currently use third-party advertising cookies or cross-site tracking. You can clear cookies and local storage through your browser settings, though doing so may sign you out and clear locally saved preferences. When you use “Sign in with Google,” Google’s Identity Services library loads from Google, and Google may set its own cookies or receive your device information (such as your IP address) as part of signing you in; that processing is governed by Google’s Privacy Policy.
We do not sell your personal information. We share information only as follows:
If our data practices change in the future, we will update this Policy and provide any choices required by law before doing so.
Transactional emails (such as your sign-in link) are necessary to use the Service and are not marketing. Marketing emails (our newsletter, including offers relating to products for your growing family) are sent only if you opt in, and you can unsubscribe at any time using the link in every such email or by contacting us.
We retain your account information and content for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Service. Server logs are retained for a limited period for security and analytics. We will delete or de-identify your personal information when it is no longer needed, or upon a valid deletion request, unless we are required to retain it by law.
We protect your information using industry-standard measures, including encryption in transit (HTTPS), hashed single-use sign-in tokens, and access controls. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
You can review and update your saved names, lists, and account details while signed in, unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time, and request access to or deletion of your personal information by contacting us through our contact form.
If you are a California resident, you have the right to know the categories and specific pieces of personal information we collect, to request correction or deletion, and to opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of personal information. We do not sell or share your personal information as those terms are defined under California law. We collect the categories of information described in Section 1 (identifiers such as email and IP address, internet activity, and the content you submit), collected from you directly, automatically through your use of the Service, and from Google if you choose to sign in with Google. You will not be discriminated against for exercising your rights. To submit a request, use our contact form; you may use an authorized agent, and we will verify your request before responding.
If you are in the EEA or UK, you have the right to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to our processing of your personal data, the right to data portability, and the right to withdraw consent at any time. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority. The data controller is BabyNameMatch.com; you can reach us through our contact form. Because we operate in the United States, your information is processed in the U.S.; where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards for international transfers.
The Service is intended for adults (for example, expectant parents) and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 (or under 16 in the EEA/UK). If you believe a child has provided us personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.
The Service may link to third-party websites we do not control. This Policy does not apply to those sites, and we encourage you to review their privacy policies.
We may update this Policy from time to time. We will post the updated version here and revise the “Effective date” above. Material changes will be communicated as appropriate.
Questions or requests about this Policy or your information can be submitted through our contact form. BabyNameMatch.com is operated from McLennan County, Texas, United States of America.
