  1. Information We Collect

We may collect and store information about you in connection with your use of the Service, including any information you transmit to or through the Service.  Such information may be collected in three ways: (1) you voluntarily provide information to us, such as by creating an account, or signing up for email alerts, (2) we collect information automatically, such as through tracking tools like browser Cookies, and/or (3) from third parties, such as ad networks or social networks, may provide information to us.  Each of these methods is described in more detail below.

Information You Choose to Provide

We may ask you to provide us with certain categories of information, such as: (1) personally identifiable information, which is information that identifies you personally, such as your first and last name, phone number, gender, birth date, credit card, mailing address, username and password, location and email address (“Personal Data”).

The following are some examples in which you may choose to provide Personal Data to us:

  • When you choose to register for an account to use the Service;
  • When you purchase something from us or otherwise engage in a transaction with us;
  • When you contact us for any reason (e.g.  through “contact us” forms), including for technical support or customer service; or
  • When you choose to subscribe to our emails or to receive other information from us.

 

Information Collected Automatically When You Use Our Service

In addition to any information that you submit to us through the Service, we and our third-party service providers may collect or store certain information automatically (or passively) whenever you visit or otherwise interact with the Service (“Usage Information”). We may use various methods and technologies to store or collect Usage Information (“Tracking Technologies”), which may be downloaded to your personal computer, browser, laptop, tablet, mobile phone or other device (each a “Device”). We typically aggregate the data that we collect automatically and use it in statistical form to determine trends among groups of users, rather than using it to identify individuals. To the extent we associate Usage Information with Personal Data that we collect directly from you through the Service, or if the information collected automatically identifies you  individually, we will treat it as Personal Data.  

The following are examples of Usage Information we may collect:

  • Your IP address, UDID or other unique identifier (“Device Identifier”).  A Device Identifier is a number that is automatically assigned to your Device used to access the Service, and our computers identify your Device by its Device Identifier;
  • Other Cookies also collect information on your behavior by collecting referring URLS (where our visitors come from, which banners they clicked on and which directed them to our Service), pages accessed, times of visits. 
  • Your Device location.

 

Information Third Parties Provide About You

We may supplement the information we collect directly from you on our Service with outside records from third parties (e.g., delivered by advertising agencies, analytics providers, etc.)  for various purposes, including so that we can deliver the products you have requested, to enhance our ability to serve you, to tailor our content to you, and to offer you opportunities that may be of interest to you.

We collect this information:

  • when you use a third-party service like Google, or log into the Service via a social media account such as Facebook.  For example, social networks may provide us with certain information about you from your profile on their website such as contact information, demographics, and other information you provided to that website such as your photo, user name, and potentially any and all information that you agreed the social network or other party could provide to us.
  • when you request information from or provide information to third parties.  For example, you may be presented with an option on our Service to receive certain information and/or marketing offers directly from third parties or to have us send certain information to third parties or give them access to it.

Please note, third parties may retain any information used or provided in any such communications or other activities and these third parties’ practices are not subject to our Privacy Policy.  For example, if you post content to a third-party service through the Service, that third party service will also receive that content, which will be visible to anyone that has access to it through that third-party service. Further, when you use third-party sites or services, you are using their services and not our services and they, not we, are responsible for their practices or use of their use of your information. You should review the applicable third-party privacy policies before using such third-party tools on our Service.
