1. Information Collection and Use
In general, we collect and use your information to provide the Services to you.
- Information provided by you: We collect information that you submit in the process of creating or editing your user profile on the Services. [For example, our registration and login process requires you to provide us with a valid e-mail address. Additionally, we collect any information that you voluntarily enter, including personal information, into any postings, comments or forums within the Services.] And, if you send an e-mail to us, we will collect your e-mail address and the full content of your e-mail, including attached files and other information you provide.
- information gathered by third-party service providers: The Services use a variety of third-party services and applications to help us to provide the Services, [for example hosting services to host our website and Google Analytics to help us understand how you and other users interact with the Services]. These third-party services and applications may collect non-personally identifiable data sent by your browser as part of a web page request, including but not limited to data regarding how frequently visitors access our Services, what actions they took on our Services and their duration of use of our Services. We do this to improve the Services.
- Email communications: We may receive a confirmation when you open an email from us. We use this confirmation to improve our customer service. You may send us an email. We may use your email address and the information provided in your email to correspond with you and to improve our Services and customer service.
- IP Address Information and Other Information Collected Automatically: We automatically receive and record information from your web browser when you interact with the Services, including your IP address, location, browser type and cookie information. This information is used for fighting spam/malware and also to facilitate collection of data concerning your interaction with the Services (e.g. what links you have clicked on). Generally, the Services automatically collect usage information, such as the number and frequency of visitors to the Services. We may use this data in aggregate form, as a statistical measure, but not in a manner that would identify you personally. This type of aggregate data enables us and third parties authorized by us to figure out how often individuals use parts of the Services so we can analyze and improve them.
- Information Collected Using Cookies: “Cookies” are small pieces of information that an application sends to your device or network while you are viewing the application. Cookies can enhance your online experience by automatically saving your preferences. We use cookies because they help us to improve your online experience. The information we collect through the use of cookies on our Services allow us to know when and for how long you used the Services. Most Internet browsers have an option for turning off the cookie feature, which will prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, as well as (depending on your browser software) allow you to decide on acceptance of each new cooking in a variety of ways. We recommend that you leave cookies active. If you decline to receive cookies, you may have difficulty using certain features of the Services. This Privacy Policy covers our use of cookies only and does not cover the use of cookies by third parties. We do not control when or how third parties place cookies on your computer. For example, third party websites to which a link points may set cookies on your computer.
- Web Beacons: In addition to cookies, we may use “web beacons,” sometimes referred to as “clear gifs” or “web bugs,” to help improve and personalize your online experience. Web beacons are typically invisible to you and are generally embedded in very small clear graphics files. We may use web beacons to monitor certain non-personally identifiable information about you, including the URL visited, the type of browser used, the IP address of your computer and the time you viewed the web beacon. We may also use web beacons to increase the effectiveness of advertising. Advertisements may be served by us or we may allow third parties’ advertisements to be served through the Services. These advertisements are sometimes targeted and served to particular users (for example, “users in New York”) and may come from third party companies called “ad networks.” “Ad networks” include third party ad servers, ad agencies, ad technology vendors and research firms. Web beacons allow ad networks to provide anonymized, aggregated auditing, research and reporting to us and to advertisers. For example, web beacons allow ad networks to determine how may people view an advertisement and/or click through and they enable ad networks to serve targeted advertisements to you when you use the Services and when you visit other websites. Your web browser must request these advertisements and web beacons from the ad network’s servers, which allows ad networks to view, edit or set their own cookies, just as if you had visited a web page from their website.
