K. Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies
We, along with third parties, use cookies, local storage objects, Web beacons, and other technologies. These technologies are used for tracking, analytics, and personalization and optimization of the Subscription Service.
Cookies, understood within this Privacy Policy to mean both traditional cookies and other types of tracking technologies that provide “cookie-equivalent functionality,” such as software development kits, device identifiers, and statistical IDs, are small text files or pieces of code that enable the Subscription Site and the App to capture and remember certain information.
Customers and Users can instruct their devices to stop accepting cookies. But, if they do not accept cookies, they may not be able to use all portions of all functionality of the Subscription Service.
- Persistent cookies remain on the Customer’s or User’s device until they have either been deleted or expire.
- Session cookies disappear from the Customer’s or User’s device when they close the App.
Flash cookies (also known as local shared objects) are data files that can be created on a Customer’s or User’s device by the websites or apps they visit, and are a way for websites or apps to store information for later use. Flash cookies are stored in different parts of a Customer’s or User’s device from ordinary browser cookies. Customers and Users can disable the storage of flash cookies. For additional information about managing and disabling flash cookies, please visit: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/disable-local-shared-objects-flash.html.
Web beacons are small strings of code that provide a method for delivering a graphic image on a web page or in an email message for the purpose of transferring data. Customers and Users can disable the ability of web beacons to capture information by blocking cookies.
We may deliver advertisements to Customers and Users. We may work with third-party advertising companies that help deliver these advertisements. To learn more about third-party online advertising and to opt out of certain types of advertising, please see http://optout.networkadvertising.org/?c=1#!%2F. Note that clearing cookies from a device will remove the above opt-outs because they are stored in cookies.
We use cookies and other tracking technologies on the Subscription Service to help us understand and save Customers’ and Users’ preferences and interests, so We can personalize their future visits and compile aggregate data about Subscription Service traffic and Subscription Service interaction to offer better Subscription Service experiences and tools in the future.
Some of our business partners, such as our analytics providers and advertising networks, also use cookies and other tracking technologies on the Subscription Service, some of which may track Customers and Users across online services and over time.
IV. Security
We implement a variety of security measures to protect the safety of Customers’ and Users’ personal information when they enter, submit, or access their personal information.
While We take reasonable measures to protect the information Customers and Users submit via the Subscription Service against loss, theft, and unauthorized use, disclosure, or modification, We cannot guarantee its absolute security. No Internet, email, or mobile application transmission is ever fully secure or error free. Email or other messages sent through the Subscription Service may not be secure. Customers and Users should use caution whenever submitting information through the Subscription Service and take special care in deciding with which information they provide us.
We cannot guarantee that transmissions of Customer or User personal information will be fully secure and that third parties will never be able to defeat our security measures or the security measures of our partners. WE ASSUME NO LIABILITY FOR DISCLOSURE OF CUSTOMER OR USER INFORMATION DUE TO TRANSMISSION ERRORS, THIRD-PARTY ACCESS, OR CAUSES BEYOND OUR CONTROL.
Any information collected through the Subscription Service is stored and processed in the United States.
V. Data Retention Policy, Managing Your Information

We may maintain anonymized or aggregated data, including usage data, for analytics purposes. We may retain and use Customer or User information as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and/or for the period required by laws in applicable jurisdictions. Please note that some or all of the information We have collected may be required for the Subscription Service to function properly.
VI. Links to Other Websites or Applications
This Privacy Policy applies only to the Subscription Service. The Subscription Service may contain links to other websites or apps or may forward Customers or Users to other websites or apps that We may not own or operate and to which this Privacy Policy does not apply. The links from the Subscription Service do not imply that We endorse or have reviewed these websites or apps. The policies and procedures We describe here do not apply to these websites or apps. We neither can control nor are responsible for the privacy practices or content of these websites or apps. We suggest contacting these websites or app providers directly for information on their privacy policies. Nonetheless, We seek to protect the integrity of our Subscription Service, and welcome any feedback about these linked websites and mobile applications.

VIII. Information Collected from Other Websites
and Mobile Applications and Do Not Track Policy
A Customer’s or User’s browser or device may offer a “Do Not Track” option, which allows Customers or Users to signal to operators of websites, web applications, mobile applications, and services (including behavioral advertising services) that they do not wish such operators to track certain of their online activities over time and/or across different websites or applications. Our Subscription Service does not support Do Not Track requests at this time, which means that We or our analytics providers or other third parties with which We are working may collect information about Customers’ or Users’ online activity both during and after their use of the Subscription Service.
