Automated technologies or interactions: As you interact with our Services, we may automatically collect Technical Data and other related information about your interactions with the Services. Some of the ways in which we or our Services may collect information are further described below:

  • Cookies and other technologies: The Website may use cookies, a type of technology that installs a small amount of information on a user’s computer or browser to permit a Website to, for example, recognize future visits using that computer or device. The Website may use other similar technologies (including, without limitation, tracking pixels, as described further below, and other  identifiers) to gather information about you, such as IP addresses and location data, to customize your visit, to enable us to enhance our Based Service, or for other purposes.
  •  Interest- Advertising:  We may engage third-party vendors to collect and use your information from our Services in connection with information they have independently collected on other digital properties to deliver targeted advertising to you when you visit other websites and applications. Cookies, described above, may be used in this process. For example, if you are searching for information on a particular product, our vendor may cause an advertisement to appear on other websites you view with information on that product. This form of advertising is called “interest-based advertising” or “online behavioral advertising.” We believe that such advertising is helpful because you will see ads that are relevant to your interests. However, if you would like to opt-out of these interest-based advertisements, please see the Opt-Out section below.
  • Clickstream Data: As you use the Internet, a trail of electronic information is left at each website you visit. This information, sometimes referred to as a “clickstream data,” can be collected and stored by a website. For example, clickstream data can tell a website the type of operating system and browser you use and the website you visited immediately before arriving at it. The Website may collect and use clickstream data as a form of aggregate information to determine how much time visitors spend on each page of our Website, how visitors navigate throughout the Website, and how we may tailor our Website to better meet the needs of visitors. This information often will be used to improve our Website and our Services. Any collection or use of clickstream data will be de-identified and aggregated. 
  • Location Data: The Website, when given permission, will collect the location (including the latitude and longitude coordinates) of your device. We use this information to help us improve the Website in order to set the Website to the relevant city.
