Our Service uses session cookies (which expire when you close your browser) and persistent cookies (which expire at a set expiration date or when you manually delete them). We incorporate both first party cookies (which are cookies served directly by us) and third party cookies (which are cookies served by third parties we work with).

There are various types of pixels, including image pixels (which are one-pixel transparent images) and JavaScript pixels (which contain JavaScript code). Pixels are often associated with cookies and are used for similar purposes. When you access a service that contains a pixel, the pixel may permit us or a third party to drop or read cookies on your browser, or collect other information about your browser or device.

     4.     How We Disclose Information.

 

We disclose the information we collect in accordance with the practices described in this Privacy Policy. The categories of persons to whom we disclose information include:

 

• Service providers. Many of the third parties we work are service providers that collect and process information on our behalf. Service providers perform services for us such as payment processing, data analytics, marketing, website hosting, and technical support. To the extent required by law, we contractually prohibit our service providers from processing information they collect on our behalf for purposes other than performing services for us, although we may permit them to use non-personal information for any purpose to the extent permitted by applicable law.

 

• Third party vendors and related parties. Some of the third parties we work with to perform services act as our service providers in some contexts, but in other contexts independently control the purposes and means of processing your information. For example, we disclose information to ad networks, technology providers, and other third parties that help provide targeted advertising, but may also use information for their own purposes. For these third parties, we encourage you to familiarize yourself with and consult their policies and terms of use.

 

• Business partners. We disclose information to our business partners in connection with offering co-branded services, selling or distributing our products, or engaging in joint marketing or promotional activities.

 

• Affiliates. We disclose information to our affiliates and related entities, including where they act as our service providers subject to this Privacy Policy or use the information in accordance with their own privacy policies.

​

• Recipients in a merger or acquisition. We disclose information in connection with, or during negotiations of, any proposed or actual merger, purchase, sale or any other type of acquisition or business combination of all or any portion of our assets, or transfer of all or a portion of our business to another business.

 

• Recipients for security and enforcement. We disclose information to comply with the law or other legal process, and where required, in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements. We also disclose information to protect the rights, property, life, health, security and safety of us, the Service or anyone else.

 

• Recipients at your direction or with your consent. We disclose information where you direct us to or with notice to you and your consent.

 

Sometimes we aggregate or de-identify information so it is no longer considered personal information. We may disclose non-personal information for any purpose to the extent permitted by applicable law. For details on your choices around disclosure of your information, see the Your Privacy Choices section below.

 

     5.     Third Parties.

 

We may link to or offer parts of our Service through websites and services controlled by third parties. An example of where you may interact with a third party include links, such as hyperlinks to third party websites and services. In addition, we may integrate technologies, including those disclosed in the How We Collect Information section above, controlled by third parties. Except where third parties act as our service providers, they, and not us, control the purposes and means of processing any information they collect from you, and you should contact them directly to address any concerns you have about their processing. Third party data practices are subject to their own policies and disclosures, including what information they collect, your choices, and whether they store information in the U.S. or elsewhere. We encourage you to familiarize yourself with and consult their privacy policies and terms of use.
