COOKIE POLICY
Last Updated: December 5, 2022
- Introduction
a) When you visit or interact with our services, applications, tools or messaging, we or our authorized service providers may use cookies, web beacons and other similar technologies for storing information to help provide you with a better, faster and safer experience, and for advertising purposes.
b) Our cookies and similar technologies are either necessary for the functioning of our services, help us improve our performance, give you extra functionalities or help us to serve you relevant and targeted ads. We use cookies and similar technologies that only remain on your device for as long as you keep your browser or application and cookies and similar technologies that remain on your device for a longer period (persistent). You’re free to block, delete or disable these technologies if your device allows this. You can manage your cookies and your cookie preferences in your browser or device settings.
c) Where possible, security measures are set in place to prevent unauthorized access to our cookies and similar technologies. A unique identifier ensures that only we and/or our authorized service providers have access to cookie data.
- Introduction
a) Cookies are essentially small data files placed on your computer, tablet, mobile phone or other devices (referred to collectively as a “device”) that allow us to record certain pieces of information whenever you visit or interact with our services, applications, messaging, tools, and to recognize you across devices. Cookies are widely used by Service owners in order to make their Services work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.
b) Cookies set by the Service owner (in this case, Company) are called “first party cookies”. Cookies set by parties other than the Service owner are called “third party cookies”. Third party cookies enable third party features or functionality to be provided on or through the Service (e.g. advertising, interactive content and analytics). The parties that set these third-party cookies can recognize your computer both when it visits the Service in question and also when it visits certain other Services.
- Why Do We Use Cookies?
a) Company uses first- and third-party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons in order for our Service to operate, and we refer to these as “essential” or “strictly necessary” cookies. Generally, these technologies allow our Services, services, applications, and tools to store relevant information in your browser or device and later read that information in order to identify you to our servers or internal systems. Where applicable, we protect our cookies and other similar technologies to help ensure that only we and/or our authorized service providers can interpret them by assigning them a unique identifier that is designed for interpretation only by us. We do not store any of your personal information on any of our cookies or other similar technologies.
b) We also offer certain features, services, applications, and tools that are available only through the use of these technologies. Other cookies enable us to track and target the interests of our Users to enhance the experience on our Services. Third parties serve cookies through our Services for advertising, analytics and other purposes.
c) We engage with one or more third-party service providers to track and analyze both individualized usage and volume statistical information from interactions with our Company Services.
d) Any personal information that we collect and store through use of these technologies is first obtained through notice and consent: We obtain your consent by providing you with transparent notice of use of the technologies and, to the extent described herein providing you with the opportunity to make a choice to disable these technologies as set forth above.
e) You are always free to block, delete, or disable these technologies if your browser, installed application, or device so permits. However, if you decline cookies or other similar technologies, you may not be able to take advantage of certain Services features, services, applications, or tools. You may also be required to re-enter your password more frequently during your browsing session. For more information on how you can block, delete, or disable these technologies, please review your browser or device settings.
- Web Beacons
a) Cookies are not the only way to recognize or track visitors to a Service. Web beacons (sometimes called “tracking pixels” or “clear gifs”) are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enable us to recognize when someone has visited our Services or taken an action in relation to our Services. We also facilitate our organizer’s ability to learn more about your interest in their event at their request through their use of these tracking pixels on our Services. In many instances, these technologies are reliant on cookies to function properly. As a result, declining cookies will impair their functioning.
- Flash Cookies or Local Shared Objects
a) Our Services may also use so-called “Flash Cookies” (also known as Local Shared Objects or “LSOs”) to, among other things, collect and store information about your use of our Services, fraud prevention and for other Services or Application operations.
b) Please note that setting the Flash Player to restrict or limit acceptance of Flash Cookies may reduce or impede the functionality of some Flash applications, including, potentially, Flash applications used in connection with our Services.
c) If you do not want Flash Cookies stored on your computer, you can adjust the settings of your Flash player to block Flash Cookies storage using the tools contained in the Service Storage Settings Panel.
- Email Campaign Cookies
a) We automatically place single pixel gifs, also known as web beacons, in every email sent by our Users. These technologies record each Contact’s email address, IP address, date, and time associated with each open and click for a campaign. We use this data to create reports for our Users about how an email campaign performed and what actions Contacts took.
- Third-Party Service Providers
a) We may work with third-party companies, commonly known as service providers, who are authorized to place third-party cookies, web beacons, or similar technologies for storing information on our Services or in our services, applications, and tools. We do not permit any third-party content on Services (such as item listings, User-to-User communications, classified listings, comments, reviews, etc.) to include or utilize any cookies, web beacons, local storage, or similar technologies for tracking purposes or to collect your personal information. If you believe a listing or other third-party content might be collecting personal information or using tracking technologies on one of our Services, please report it to Support@BelieveIt.App.
b) Our third-party service providers may also use cookies or web beacons to collect information about your visits to our Services and/or other Services to measure and track the effectiveness of advertisements and our online marketing activities (for example, by collecting data on how many times you click on one of our ads). The information collected by these third parties does not include personal information that enables you to be specifically identified (e.g. by reference to your name or email address).
c) If you have any questions regarding the cookies or web beacons collected by these Services, please refer those providers’ policies.
- Authorized Third Parties Ad Networks
a) We may use third parties, such as advertising networks and exchanges, to allow us to serve you advertisements. These third-party ad networks and exchange providers may use third-party cookies, web beacons, or similar technologies to collect information. They may also collect your device identifier, IP address, or identifier for advertising (IDFA). The information that these third parties collect may be used to assist us in providing you with more relevant advertising that we serve on our Services or elsewhere on the web, and as described above. Third-party cookies are covered by the third parties’ privacy policy.
- Users’ Section Cookies
a) If a User elects to use Company’s add-ons or features, they permit or assent to additional cookies or tracking technologies to be employed.
- Do Not Track
a) The law requires us to let you know how we respond to web browser Do Not Track (DNT) signals. Because there currently isn’t an industry or legal standard for recognizing or honoring DNT signals, we don’t respond to them at this time. We await the result of work by the privacy community and industry to determine when such a response is appropriate and what form it should take.
- Do Not Track
a) You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can exercise your cookie preferences by clicking on the appropriate opt-out links provided in the cookie table above, or you can set or amend your web browser controls to accept or refuse cookies. If you choose to reject cookies via your browser, you may still use our Services through your access to some functionality may be restricted. As the means by which you can refuse cookies through your web browser controls vary from browser-to-browser, you should visit your browser’s help menu for more information.
