Personal Information. “Personal Information” means information that identifies, relates to, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or describes, directly or indirectly, a particular individual, such as: name, address, email address, or phone number.

User-Generated Content. This Privacy Policy does not apply to information you post online that is viewable to the public. We urge you to be very careful when deciding to disclose your personal data, or any other information, on our Sites. This Privacy Policy does not apply to such publicly posted information.

Information You Provide. We may collect and store the following Personal Information when you submit it: (1) through our Sites; (2) at an informational pre-planning seminar we conduct; (3) by phone; or (4) by mail. We may use this information for typical business purposes (including auditing our interactions with our clients or Site visitors, for internal reporting purposes, or security and anti-fraud purposes) and as described more specifically below:

Personal Identifiers. We receive personal identifiers that you provide to us (such as your name, address, phone number, email address, billing address, shipping address, date of birth, insurance policy number, signature, and social security number in certain instances) and use them to respond to your requests; to create new member accounts at your request; to fulfill your orders for merchandise and services; to communicate with you for marketing and informational purposes (you may opt out of receiving marketing emails from us at any time by requesting to be removed via email); to provide you with the products and services you request from us pursuant to the terms of an advance (pre-need) and to provide you with information about our products and services that you request from us. We will also create a client number when you make a purchase so that we can identify you.
Message Content. We collect the messages you submit to us through contact, sign-up, and purchase forms on the Sites, such as customer service requests, messages you would like us to provide to delivery recipients, and delivery instructions. We use this information to respond to and fulfill your requests, and to improve our Sites and our service and merchandise offerings.
