What This Privacy Policy Covers
This Privacy Policy applies to the personal information that CignaDentalPlans.com, brought to you by DentalPlans.com, receives from you and thereafter stores in the company’s database, including but not limited to information relating to your past use of DentalPlans.com products and services. “Personal information” is information about you such as your name, street address, email address, telephone number, and such other similar information that is received from you by DentalPlans.com.
This Privacy Policy does not apply to the practices of individuals or companies that DentalPlans.com does not own or control or to individuals or other business entities that DentalPlans.com does not employ and manage. Although DentalPlans.com requires DentalPlans.com affiliates and publishers to adhere to good business practices as a condition of their doing business with DentalPlans.com, DentalPlans.com does not own or control such affiliates and publishers, and as such, DentalPlans.com is not responsible for the information use and/or information gathering practices of any affiliate or publisher. Affiliates and publishers are not employees or agents of DentalPlans.com, and the user should understand that affiliates and publishers may collect personal information from or about users in manners and/or for purposes that are not consistent with the DentalPlans.com Privacy Policy. The collection, use, and disclosure of information by affiliates and publishers are subject to their own respective privacy policies, which may materially differ both in form and substance from the DentalPlans.com Privacy Policy.

"Cookies" are small pieces of information that are stored by an Internet User’s browser on the Internet User’s hard drive.

Information Sharing And Disclosure
DentalPlans.com does not rent, sell, or share personal identifying information about you with nonaffiliated individuals or companies except 1) where it is necessary to provide the information to acquire the products or services that you’ve requested and where we have your permission to do so; or 2) under the following circumstances: (a) we provide the information to nonaffiliated individuals or companies under confidentiality agreements for the purpose of allowing them to use your personal information to help DentalPlans.com communicate with you or others about offers from DentalPlans.com and/or our marketing partners, however, these companies do not have any independent right to share this information or to use this information for any purpose not consistent with the limited use identified in the foregoing sentence, or (b) we provide the information to nonaffiliated individuals or companies under confidentiality agreements for the purpose of allowing them to use your personal information to assist DentalPlans.com in understanding user behavior to better tailor our product offerings; or 3) we also share your personal identifying information in response to subpoenas, court orders, or other legal process, and/or to establish and/or exercise our legal rights and/or to defend against legal claims, and we will also share your information at such times and under such circumstances that we determine, in our sole discretion, that it is necessary to share the information in order to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, violations of the DentalPlans.com Terms of Use, or as otherwise required by law; or 4) we will transfer information about you if DentalPlans.com is acquired by or merged with another company, and in this event, DentalPlans.com will notify you before information about you is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.
Additionally, DentalPlans.com displays targeted advertisements based on personal information. Advertisers (including ad serving companies) may assume that people who interact with, view, or click on targeted ads meet their targeting criteria – for example, women ages 18-24 from a particular geographic area. DentalPlans.com does not provide any personal information to the advertiser when you interact with or view a targeted ad. However, by interacting with or viewing an ad, you are consenting to the possibility that the advertiser will make the assumption that you meet the targeting criteria used to display the ad. DentalPlans.com advertisers include financial service providers (such as banks, insurance agents, stock brokers and mortgage lenders) and non-financial companies (such as stores, airlines, and software companies).
Cookies
DentalPlans.com may set and access DentalPlans.com cookies on your computer. Advertisers or other companies do not have access to DentalPlans.com’s cookies. DentalPlans.com uses web beacons to access DentalPlans.com cookies inside and outside of our network of web sites and in connection with DentalPlans.com products and services.
DentalPlans.com may use third-party advertising companies to serve ads on our site, and it may also allow the companies that show advertisements on some of our pages to set and access their own cookies on your computer.

Any information that these third parties collect via cookies and action tags is completely anonymous. These cookies are set and subsequently accessed on an Internet User’s computer after the user interacts with, views, or clicks on a targeted ad. If you do not wish to have other companies’ cookies set on your computer, do not interact with, view or click on the targeted ads. These other companies’ use of their cookies is subject to their own privacy policies and not the DentalPlans.com Privacy Policy, and as such, their privacy policy may materially differ in both form and substance from the DentalPlans.com Privacy Policy.
