Third-Party Websites

Our website may include links to blogs, social media, and third-party websites. These third-party sites have their own privacy policies and terms of use and are not controlled by this policy. You should carefully review any terms, conditions, and policies of such third-party sites before visiting them or supplying them with any personal information. If you follow a link on our website to any third-party site, any information you provide to that site will be governed by its own terms of use and privacy policy and not this policy. You may be able to use social media widgets (e.g., the Facebook “Like” button) while using our website. These widgets will collect your IP Address and identify which page you are visiting on our website and make your preference information available to third parties. The information collected by such widgets is controlled by third-party privacy policies.

Use and Disclosure of Aggregated or De-Identified Data

We may convert or combine some Personal Information of users into de-identified or aggregated data that does not disclose any of the Personal Information of any individual user. We may use and disclose to third parties any such de-identified or aggregated data (including traffic and usage data that does not identify you personally) for any lawful purpose.

Use of Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to track and analyze certain traffic and usage statistics regarding the use of our website, such as the number of visitors to our website, how visitors are navigating to our website, visitors’ general geographic region information, how long individuals are visiting our website, and information about the equipment individuals are using to access our website (e.g., browser version and operating system). Google Analytics may use a Google Analytics cookie and may collect your IP address or mobile device ID as part of this service (but neither we nor Google Analytics otherwise collects or processes any of your Personal Information in connection with our use of the Google Analytics services). We use this traffic and usage information to gauge, internally, the effectiveness of our advertising efforts and to make improvements to our website and our marketing and promotional efforts.

For more inform8 ation, please review the following:

You can opt out of our use of certain Google Analytics features by updating the “Ads Settings” in your browser (www.adssettings.google.com/authenticated) or mobile device (www.support.google.com/ads/answer/1660762#mob), by enabling the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-On in your browser by visiting https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout, or by visiting the Network Advertising Initiative’s Consumer Opt-Out page at www.optout.networkadvertising.org/. Because those opt-out and preference control pages are specific to the individual browser used to visit them, and because those pages are not operated by us, we are unable to perform the opt-outs on your behalf.

Tracking and “Do Not Track”

Tracking involves the use of cookies, web beacons, or other embedded code or tracking technologies to collect, analyze, and store information on a user’s behavior over time on multiple sites, including information on the sites visited, products viewed, products purchased, and other online interactions. Tracking information can be used to enable companies to make interest-based (behavioral) advertising available to users on multiple sites that they visit.

We do not currently collect Personal Information about your online activities over time and across third-party sites for tracking purposes. In addition, except to the limited extent described above in the section titled “Use of Google Analytics,” we do not currently allow third parties to collect Personal Information through or using our website that could be used by them to analyze and store information about your online activities over time and across third-party sites for tracking purposes. Therefore, our website does not respond to any “DO NOT TRACK” signals sent by your browser or mobile device. If your browser or mobile device sends a “DO NOT TRACK” signal to our website, our website will not treat you differently from users who do not send such signals.

  • We may disclose Personal Information to any contractors, service providers, and other third parties who need to know such information to provide services to us that support the hosting, maintenance, operation, and promotion of our website and our permitted uses of Personal Information under this policy. For example, we may use a third-party cloud-hosting infrastructure service provider (e.g., Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud, or Microsoft Azure) to store certain elements of your Personal Information securely, and we use Google Analytics in connection with our website as described above in the section titled “Use of Google Analytics.”
  • We may disclose Personal Information to a buyer or other successor to our business in the event of a sale of equity or assets, reorganization, merger, or a similar corporate transaction, and any due diligence review with respect to any such proposed transaction.
