We use this data to send you promotional and other electronic and hardcopy communications. We may use third-parties or service providers to deliver communications to you.
Feedback. When you provide comments or feedback about our App, the content of our App, or our products or services ("Feedback"), we will not treat that Feedback as confidential and we may use that Feedback for any purpose in our sole discretion so long as it does not personally identify you. Feedback will be used without attribution or compensation to you.
Personal Information Collected Automatically. We automatically collect certain information from you when you access our App.
Account Activity. We may collect data about how you use your online account for the App when you are logged into your account. We may combine data automatically collected from you with other Personal Information about you.
Cookies & Other Tracking Technologies. We may use cookies, web beacons, pixel tags and other tracking technologies (collectively “Cookies”) on our App.
What are cookies and web beacons / pixel tags? A cookie is a small text file that our App saves onto your computer or device when you use the App that provides us certain information about your activities. Cookies allow the App to remember your actions and preferences and recognize you or your browser. Web beacons / pixel tags are small graphics on a webpage that monitor your activity when viewing a webpage.
Why do we collect Cookies? We use Cookies to:
-
make our App function properly;
-
provide personalized experiences;
-
tailor our interactions with you, including remembering the information that you have already provided to us;
-
help with our marketing efforts;
-
provide us with valuable data and statistics about the usage and effectiveness of our App and to help us improve our App; and

help us improve our services.
What type of information do Cookies collect? The Cookies on our App may collect information such as:
-
the IP addresses assigned to the computers and other devices you use;

your internet service provider;

How long do Cookies last? A Cookie can either be a “session” Cookie or a “persistent” Cookie. Session Cookies exist only for so long as you are visiting the applicable App and are typically deleted when you exit your web browser. Persistent Cookies exist for a set period of time, for example, up to several months or years. Each time you visit the App that has implemented a persistent Cookie, the persistent Cookie is renewed and that Cookie will remain active until its predetermined expiration date. You can manually delete persistent Cookies through your browser settings.
Flash cookies differ from other browser cookies regarding the amount and types of data collected and how the data is stored. Your browser will not remove and cannot manage Flash cookies in the same way as other Cookies. To learn about managing your Flash cookie settings, visit the Flash player settings page on Adobe’s website here.
First-party versus third-party Cookies. Cookies may either be “first-party” or “third-party” Cookies. A first-party Cookie allows your web browser to talk to the actual App that you are visiting. A third-party Cookie allows your web browser to talk to a third-party website, such as the source of an ad that appears on the website you are visiting or a third-party analytics provider. We do not have control over how information gathered by third-party Cookies is used by third parties.
How do you manage Cookies or opt-out? Most browsers automatically accept cookies. You can disable this function by changing your browser settings, but disabling cookies may impact your use and enjoyment of the App. Not all features or functions of the App may work properly if you disable Cookies. You cannot disable all Cookies, such as Cookies that are essential to the functioning of the App.
“Do-Not-Track”. We currently do not respond to “Do Not Track” requests.
Analytics. We use Analytics providers including Google Analytics to collect and process information about your use of the App. Google sets cookies on your browser or device, and then your web browser will automatically send information to Google. Google uses this information to provide us with reports that we use to better understand and measure how users interact with our App.
To learn more about how Google uses data, visit Google’s Privacy Policy and Google’s page on “How Google uses data when you use our partners’ sites or apps.” You may download the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on for each web browser you use, but this does not prevent the use of other analytics tools.
