Tribute Technology Updates Privacy Policy Amid Growing Data Concerns
MIDDLETON, Wis. — Tribute Technology, a leading provider of funeral technology services, has updated its privacy policy to address growing concerns over data collection and user privacy. The changes, effective as of April 20, 2023, aim to clarify how personal information is collected, used, and protected across its platforms, including funeral home websites and tribute archives.
The updated policy outlines the types of personal information Tribute Technology collects, such as contact details, payment information, and usage data. It also details how this information is shared with third-party vendors, service providers, and affiliates. The company emphasized its commitment to protecting user data while complying with applicable laws and regulations.
“We are committed to safeguarding the personal information of our users,” a Tribute Technology spokesperson said. “This updated policy reflects our ongoing efforts to ensure transparency and security in how we handle data.”
Tribute Technology’s services include website hosting, payment processing, and funeral-related software for funeral homes and other professionals. The company also maintains the Tribute Archive, a repository of obituaries and funeral-related content, which may collect personal information from users who interact with the platform.
The policy update comes amid heightened scrutiny of data privacy practices across the tech industry. Tribute Technology’s new guidelines align with global privacy standards, including the European Union‘s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and California‘s Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).
Users are encouraged to review the updated policy and contact Tribute Technology with any questions or concerns. The company has also provided options for users to opt out of certain data collection practices, including the use of cookies and Google Analytics.
