  • When you interact with our advertising and applications on third-party websites and services, if those applications or advertising include links to this Privacy Policy.

  • By any means whatsoever outside of the foregoing wherein a link to this Privacy Policy is provided.

It does not apply to information collected by:

  • Us offline or through any other means, including on any other website operated by Company or any third party for which a separate privacy policy is applicable; or 

  • Any third party, including through any application or content (including advertising) that may link to or be accessible from the Service.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are under 13, do not use or provide any information on the Service or through any of its features, register on the Service, make any purchases through the Service, use any of the interactive or public comment features of the Service, or provide any information about yourself to us, including your name, address, telephone number, email address, or any screen name or user name you may use.

Following receipt, we will make commercially reasonable efforts to remove the relevant information from prospective public view or anonymize it so the minor cannot be individually identified to the extent required by applicable law.

We collect several types of information from and about users of the Service, including information:

Your User Contributions are posted on and transmitted to others at your own risk. Although we may limit access to certain pages, please be aware that no security measures are perfect or impenetrable. Additionally, we cannot control the actions of other users of the Service with whom you may choose to share your User Contributions. Therefore, we cannot and do not guarantee that your User Contributions will not be viewed by unauthorized persons.

Information We Collect Through Automatic Data Collection Technologies 

As you navigate through and interact with the Service, we may use automatic data collection technologies to collect certain information about your equipment, browsing actions, and patterns, including:

  • Details of your visits to the Service, including traffic data, location data, logs, referring/exit pages, and other communication data and the resources that you access and use on the Service.

  • Information about your computer and internet connection, including your IP address, device, operating system, and browser type.

We also may use these technologies to collect information about your online activities over time and across third-party websites or other online services (behavioral tracking). Like many online services, we currently do not alter our practices when we receive a “Do Not Track” signal from a visitor’s browser. For more information about “Do Not Track,” please visit https://allaboutdnt.com/; provided, however, that we are not responsible for any information provided therein.

The information we collect automatically may include personal information, or we may maintain it or associate it with personal information we collect in other ways or receive from third parties. It helps us to improve the Service and to deliver a better and more personalized service, including by enabling us to:

  • Estimate our audience size and usage patterns. 

  • Store information about your preferences, allowing us to customize the Service according to your individual interests. 

  • Speed up your searches. 

  • Recognize you when you return to the Service. 

The technologies we use for our automatic data collection may include:

  • Cookies (or browser cookies). A cookie is a small file placed on the hard drive of your computer. You may refuse to accept browser cookies by activating the appropriate setting on your browser. However, if you select this setting you may be unable to access certain parts of the Service. Unless you have adjusted your browser setting so that it will refuse cookies, our system may issue cookies when you direct your browser to the Service.

  • Flash Cookies. Certain features of the Service may use local stored objects (or Flash cookies) to collect and store information about your preferences and navigation to, from, and on the Service. Flash cookies are not managed by the same browser settings as are used for browser cookies. For information about managing your privacy and security settings for Flash cookies, see Choices About How We Use and Disclose Your Information below.

  • Web Beacons. Pages of the Service and our e-mails may contain small electronic files known as web beacons (also referred to as clear gifs, pixel tags, and single-pixel gifs) that permit the Company, for example, to count users who have visited those pages or opened an email and for other related website statistics (for example, recording the popularity of certain website content and verifying system and server integrity).

  • Embedded Scripts. Certain programming code designed to collect information about your interactions with the Service is considered an embedded script. Such embedded scripts may be temporarily downloaded onto your computer from our web server, or from a third party that we work with, and is active only while you are connected to the Service, and deleted or deactivated thereafter.

  • Device Recognition Technologies. Particular technologies, such as application of statistical probability to data sets, as well as linking a common unique identifier to different device use (e.g., Facebook ID), which attempt to recognize or make assumptions about users and devices (e.g., that a user of multiple devices is the same user or household).

  • Location Identification Technologies. Global Positioning Systems software, geo-filtering and other location-aware technologies locate you (sometimes precisely), or make assumptions about your location, for purposes such as verifying your location and delivering or restricting content, including third party ads, based on your location. If you have enabled such software or use other location-based features on the Service, your device location may be tracked by us and third parties. Our store finder feature may access and use information about your device location (such as based on IP address or GPS, as applicable), or your account information, to suggest appropriate store locations. The Service’s content may be personalized based on various information we may have about you to try to provide you with more location-relevant content.

  • In-App Tracking. A variety of tracking technologies may be included in your mobile applications, and these are not browser-based like cookies and cannot be controlled by browser settings. Some use device identifier, or other identifiers such as “Ad IDs” to associate app user activity to a particular app and to track user activity across apps and/or devices.

  • SMS Messages. Certain text and media messages may be sent or received to facilitate communication between you and the Company.

  • Order Information. When you make a purchase on the Service or attempt to make a purchase through the Service, we collect certain information from you, including without limitation, your name, billing and shipping addresses, payment information (including credit card numbers), email address, phone number, and certain ordering preferences.

We do not purposefully collect personal information automatically, but we may tie this information to personal information about you that we collect from other sources or you provide to us.

Third-Party Use of Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies

Some content or applications, including advertisements, on the Service are served by third-parties, including advertisers, ad networks and servers, content providers, and application providers.

  • Targeted Advertising. We may serve ads on third-party services that are targeted to reach users of those services that are also identified on one of more of our databases. As an example, we may use the ad services offered by Facebook or Twitter (and other third-party services). We are not responsible for the foregoing services, including without limitation their security of the data. If we utilize Facebook to serve ads on its services, you can typically hover over the box in the right corner of an applicable ad, or go to your account settings, and find out what options Facebook offers you to control such ads. If we use Twitter’s ads, you should be able to review your ad options in your account settings on Twitter. We are not responsible for such third parties’ failure to comply with your or our opt-out instructions, they may not give us notice of opt-outs to our ads that you give to them, and they may change their options without notice to us or you. 

We do not control third parties’ collection or use of your information to serve interest-based advertising. However these third parties may provide you with ways to choose not to have your information collected or used in this way.
