We may receive and store certain information about you and your device(s) automatically when you access or use our Website and Services. This information may include:

• Technical Information: We collect technical information associated with your activity on our Website. This may include information related to your browser and operating system, IP address (the internet address of your computer), unique device identifiers, and other information such as your device type. We use such information for diagnostic and statistical purposes and to administer our Services.
• Site Usage Information: We collect information to better understand customer traffic patterns and Website usage. This may include the webpage that you were visiting before accessing our Website or mobile application, the pages or features of our Website or mobile application you browsed, to inform us which part of our Website app and Services you visit and how much time you spend there.

Use of Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies

We use cookies, web beacons, pixels, and similar technologies to collect information and personalize your experience with our Services.

Cookies

Cookies are small web files that a site or its provider transfers to your device’s hard drive through your web browser that enables the site’s or provider’s system to recognize your browser and remember certain information.

• How We Use Cookies: We use first-party and third-party cookies for the following purposes:
• to make our Services function properly;
• to improve our Services;
• to recognize you when you return to the Website (or one of our other Services) and to remember information you have already provided;
• to collect information about your activities over time and across third party websites or other online services in order to deliver content and advertising tailored to your interests; and
• to provide a secure browsing experience during your use of our Services.

How to Manage Cookies

You may disable the use of cookies by modifying your browser settings. If you choose to disable cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of our Services. For more information on cookies and how to disable cookies, visit www.ftc.gov/ftc/cookies.shtm or https://www.usa.gov/optout_instructions.shtml.

Web Beacons

Web beacons, also known as web bugs, pixel tags, or clear GIFs, are tiny graphics with a unique identifier that may be included on our Website to deliver or communicate with cookies in order to track and measure the performance of our Website and Services, monitor how many web visitors we have, and to monitor the effectiveness of our advertising. Unlike cookies, which are stored on the user’s hard drive, web beacons are typically embedded invisibly on webpages (or in an email).

Online Analytics and Advertising Technologies

We and our third-party vendors may use automated technologies (including cookie identifiers on our Website) along with other collected information to tailor ads or deliver content when you are on our Services or on other devices, apps, or websites.

Interest-Based Advertising

We (or our service providers) may use the information we collect, for instance, IP addresses and unique mobile device identifiers to locate or try to locate the same unique users across multiple browsers or devices (such as smartphones, tablets, or computers), or work with providers that do this in order to better tailor content and features and provide you with a seamless experience across devices. If you wish to opt-out of cross-device tracking for purposes of interest-based advertising, you may do so through your device settings. We may also use cross-device targeting to help identify our users and serve advertising. This type of advertising is often called “interest-based” or “personalized” advertising—and when it occurs on mobile apps “cross-app” advertising.

You can learn more about interest-based advertising and how to opt-out of receiving tailored advertising by visiting:

• (i) the Network Advertising Initiative’s Consumer Opt-Out link; or
• (ii) the Digital Advertising Alliance’s Consumer Opt-Out link. To opt out of Google Analytics for display advertising or customize Google display network ads, you can visit the Google Ads Settings page.

Please note that even if you opt-out, you may still receive advertisements from us. However, in that case, the advertising will not be tailored to your interests. Also, we do not control any of the above opt-out links or whether any particular company chooses to participate in these opt-out programs.

Mobile Applications

Depending on your permissions, we may receive your Personal Information from your Internet service and mobile device providers. Users of mobile devices who do not want to receive interest-based advertising may opt-out in several ways. Learn more about your choices for mobile devices by visiting http://www.aboutads.info/appchoices. Each operating system (iOS for Apple phones, Android for Android devices, and Windows for Microsoft devices) provides its own instructions on how to prevent the delivery of tailored in-application advertisements. You should view your device or system “Settings” to determine how you can opt-out of use of your device ID for “cross-app” personalized advertising.

Use of Your Personal Information

We may use the information we collect or receive about you for various purposes, including:

• To provide you with our Services. For example, we use credit card information to complete a transaction or an address to fulfill your purchase order. If the applicable information is to be provided or Service is to be performed by a third party, then we will disclose the applicable Personal Information to the third party providing the information or performing applicable Services. Your information may be available or provided to third-party service providers (such as the post office, credit card companies, and payment processing companies) that are contractually obligated to protect your information as disclosed in this Policy.
• To maintain, improve, and personalize the Services. We use your information for our everyday business operations such as auditing, administration of the Services, forum management, fulfillment, and analytics. Your information may also be used to improve the content and/or functionality of the Services. For example, it may be used to help us improve our offerings. We also use your information to personalize your experience. For example, we may personalize the content and features you see when visiting our Services. In addition, we may personalize advertisements, marketing communications, and recommendations to make them more tailored to your interests.
• To communicate with you. We use your information to communicate with you. We may contact you with promotional offerings or other communications that may be of interest to you. If we send you marketing emails about services that may interest you, each email will contain instructions permitting you to “unsubscribe” from receiving future marketing or other communications within 10 days.
• To maintain legal and regulatory compliance. Our Services are subject to certain laws and regulations which may require us to process your Personal Information. For example, we process your information to fulfill our business obligations or as necessary to manage risk as required under applicable law.
• To enforce compliance with our Terms and Conditions and Policies. When you access or use our Services, you are bound to our Terms and Conditions and this Policy. To ensure you comply with them, we process your Personal Information by actively monitoring, investigating, preventing, and mitigating any alleged or actual prohibited, illicit, or illegal activities on our Services. We also process your Personal Information to investigate, prevent, or mitigate violations of our internal terms, agreements, or policies and to enforce our agreements with third parties and business partners.
• To protect you, others, and our business. We use your information to protect you, others, and our business, including without limitation using information for fraud prevention, for enforcement of our Terms and Conditions, to comply with the law, and to protect against security risks.
• For our business purposes. We may use your information for any other purpose disclosed to you at the time we collect or receive the information or otherwise with your consent.
