The Sophisticated Matchmaking website uses “cookies” to help personalize your online experience. A cookie is a text file placed on your hard disk by a web server. Cookies cannot run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. They are uniquely assigned to you and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie.
One primary purpose of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. A cookie tells the web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalize Sophisticated Matchmaking pages or register with the Sophisticated Matchmaking site or services, a cookie helps us recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as billing and shipping addresses. When you return to the same Sophisticated Matchmaking website, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the features you customized.

If you choose to decline cookies, you may not fully experience the interactive features of the Sophisticated Matchmaking services or websites you visit.
Sophisticated Matchmaking secures your personal information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. We store the personally identifiable information you provide on computer servers in a controlled, secure environment protected from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. When personal information (such as a credit card number) is transmitted to other websites, it is protected through the use of encryption such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol.
Sophisticated Matchmaking may occasionally update this privacy statement to reflect company and customer feedback. We encourage you to periodically review this statement to stay informed about how Sophisticated Matchmaking is protecting your information.
