As you use the Services, we also collect [information about the individual web pages or products that you view, what websites or search terms referred you to our site, and information about how you interact with our site]. Additionally, we may receive the categories of information described above from other sources, such as third-party services and organizations. For example, if you access any social media or similar services through the Services to login or to share information about your experience with our Services with others, we may collect information from those third-party services. We may aggregate or de-identify the information described above and once aggregated or de-identified, such data is not subject to this Privacy Policy.

When do we share your information
We are committed to maintaining your trust, and we want you to understand when and with whom we may share the information we collect.

How we use cookies and other advertising technology
When you use our Services, we and our third-party advertising partners use cookies, pixel tags, local storage, and other similar technologies (collectively, “cookies”) to collect information from your browser or device. By using the Services, you consent to our use of cookies and similar technologies.
The cookies we use fall in two broad categories: essential and advertising. The following types of cookies are used on our Services:
- Essential cookies. These cookies enable you to use our Services and track the performance of our websites. These cookies are essential to enable you to browse our Services and use certain features. Disabling them may prevent you from using certain parts of the Services. These cookies also help keep our Services safe and secure.
- Preference cookies. These cookies store information such as your preferred country and language selection and website preferences. Without these cookies, our Services may not be able to remember certain choices you’ve previously made or personalize your browsing experience by providing you with relevant information. These cookies can also be used to recognize your device so that you do not have to provide the same information more than once.
- Business transfers. We may share your information in connection with a substantial corporate transaction, such as the sale of a business or other business combination.
- Performance cookies. These cookies collect information about how you use our Services such as which pages you visit regularly. These cookies are used to provide you with a high-quality experience by doing things such as tracking page load, site response times, and error messages.
You may be able to refuse or disable cookies by adjusting your web browser settings. Some browsers have options that allow the visitor to control whether the browser will accept cookies, reject cookies, or notify the visitor each time a cookie is sent. Because each web browser is different, please consult the instructions provided by your web browser (typically in the “help” section). In addition, some of our third-party partners are members of the Network Advertising Initiative, which offers a single location to opt out of ad targeting from member companies. To learn more, please click here or http://www.aboutads.info/.
Note that because of differences in how web browsers incorporate and transmit “do-not-track” signals, we currently do not take action in response to these signals.

To the extent you are a resident of a country other than the United States, you consent to the transfer of such data to the United States for processing by us in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
We do not collect information from children
