Advertising & Marketing

Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics’s third-party audience data such as age, gender, and interests to better understanding the behavior of our customers and provide advertising targeted to suit their interests and preferences. For example, you may see certain ads on other websites because we contract with Google and other similar companies to target our ads based on information they have collected from your online traffic. These companies also use automated technologies to collect information when you click on our ads, which helps track and manage the effectiveness of our marketing efforts.

Google Analytics and other similar services also track traffic and clicks on our website. These data are not personally identified and allow us to analyze and improve our website(s) and services.

 

Opt-Out

You may opt out of the automated collection of information by third-party ad networks for the purpose of delivering advertisements tailored to your interests, by visiting the consumer opt-out page for the Self-Regulatory Principles for Online Behavioral Advertising at http://www.aboutads.info/choices/.

You may edit or opt-out your Google Display Network ads’ preferences at http://www.google.com/ads/preferences.

 

Emails

Most emails sent for marketing purposes and mass distribution are sent via a third-party service, such as MailChimp. We may use tracking pixels and other technologies to track when emails have been opened and which links in an email have been clicked. This helps us to measure the performance of our email campaigns and provide you with more targeted information.

If you do not want to receive marketing emails from us, you can click unsubscribe at the bottom of the email.
 

How Your Information May Be Shared

We may share your information in the following ways:

  • With third-party service providers we use to support our business. These parties include third parties providing us with services such as website hosting, data analysis, web advertisements, online forms and surveys, digital file management and cloud services, IT services, social media, payment processing, email delivery, and other services. These third parties are authorized to use information only to the extent necessary to provide these services to us.
