Personalized advertising (formerly known as interest-based advertising)
Our website allows our partners to collect certain information about you in order to provide you with personalized advertising. Our partners are leading advertising groups, based on the effectiveness of digital technology, who work hard to ensure that your personal information is secure and used appropriately. They may collect certain information from your computer or device, such as:
- your gender;
- your age;
- your location;
- your areas of interest.
They may also collect certain information related to your PC, laptop, cell phone, or other device attributes, as well as traffic/session information such as:
- The model of your computer or device;
- the brand of your computer or device;
- the agent details of your computer or device;

Using information for personal advertising
Information collected by our affiliates is used to analyze trends, understand user actions and gather demographic information to enable, manage and develop their personalized advertising and related services. Our partners may share such information with their affiliates. To do this, our affiliates use technologies such as cookies and web beacons to collect information about your interactions with our website and third party websites. This type of information does not identify you personally and is usually combined with other data to create segments – user groups and general categories of interest that are inferred based on a number of factors (e.g., “sports fan”). Our partners use this information to form a more accurate picture of the interests of the audiences they interact with, including you, so that their ads are more relevant to those interests.
In addition, our partners may use the information collected through these types of cookies or similar technologies for a variety of other purposes, including:
- In conjunction with advertisements that appear on other third-party websites;
- to measure the effectiveness of online and email advertising;
- for reporting website traffic, statistics, advertising data and other interactions with ads and the websites they serve.
Our partners retain your information for processing for their legitimate business purposes. The information is then deleted, archived for limited legitimate interests, or anonymized. Non-identifying information may be stored without time or use restrictions. We have no access to or control over cookies or other features that our partners may use, and the information practices of our partners and third-party websites are not governed by this Policy. Contact them directly for more information about their privacy policies.
Why do you want to receive personalized advertising?
Consumers like to receive personalized advertising for a variety of reasons. Personalized ads are useful because they are more relevant to your interests. Personalized ads are more likely to help you discover new products and services that really match you and your interests. In short, getting personalized ads can help improve your access to new products, services and features that are most relevant to you. What’s more, you won’t see the same ads over and over again because the number of times you see a particular personalized ad is limited. By opting out of personalized ads, you will lose all of these benefits.
Opting out of receiving personalized ads
If you do not want our website to show you personalized ads, we recommend that you do one of the following
- Use the Google service that allows you to opt out of seeing personalized ads by clicking on the Google Ads Help to turn off personalized ads and follow the instructions;
- use the general opt-out mechanism for third-party advertisers who are members of the Network Advertising Initiative (NAI) by clicking NAI Opt Out of Interest-Based Advertising and follow the instructions;
Please note that if you choose to opt out, your opt-out will be managed by cookies. If you delete these cookies or use a different browser or computer, you will have to make the same choice again.
When you opt-out of personalized advertising, you may continue to see online advertisements on the Service and/or our advertisements on other websites and online services.

Security
We strive to use reasonable organizational, technical and administrative measures to protect your IP address and other personal information within our organization, and we regularly monitor our system for vulnerabilities. However, because the Internet is not a 100% secure environment, we cannot guarantee or warrant the security of your information. Please note that electronic communication, especially email, is not necessarily secure from interception. For these reasons, we ask that you refrain from sending us any personal information about you or any other person via the World Wide Web, unless absolutely necessary.
Changes to this Policy
If we decide to amend this Policy, we will post the amendments on this Web site before they take effect. In addition, we will indicate the effective date when this Policy is amended. You will then have the opportunity to decide whether you wish to continue to use our website in accordance with the amended Privacy Policy.
