Use of Cookies
We, our Service Providers, marketing providers, and advertisers use cookies, other similar technologies (such as pixel tags), and resettable device identifiers for various reasons. This section explains the types of technologies used, what they do, and your corresponding choices. To choose whether or not to receive cookies and similar technologies, please see the section below “How can I exercise choice regarding these technologies?”
Cookies and Similar Technologies, Pixel Tags, and Resettable Device Identifiers
Cookies are small data files that are commonly stored on your device when you access websites and online services. The text in a cookie contains a string of numbers and letters that may uniquely identify a device and can contain other information as well. This allows the web server to recognize your browser each time it connects to that web server.
We use other technologies such as browser storage and plugins (for example, HTML5, IndexedDB, and WebSQL). Like cookies, these other technologies may store small amounts of data on a Device. Pixel tags often work in conjunction with cookies. In many cases, declining cookies will impair the effectiveness of pixel tags associated with those cookies.
If you use a Veels app on a mobile device, tablet, or streaming media Device, we may collect a resettable device identifier from your Device. Resettable Device identifiers can be used like cookies and are found on many mobile devices and tablets (for example, the “Identifier for Advertisers” on Apple iOS devices and the “Google Advertising ID” on Android devices), and certain streaming media devices. Like cookies, resettable device identifiers are used to make online advertising more relevant, and for analytics and optimization purposes.
Why Does Veels Use These Technologies?
We use these types of technologies for various reasons, including to provide our Service (for example, by making it easy to access our Service by remembering you when you return); to administer and operate our business, to research, analyze and improve our services (for example, to improve site performance, monitor visitor traffic and actions on our site, and to test the effectiveness of our user interface); to send marketing and informational messages (for example, to deliver and tailor our marketing, and to understand interactions with our emails, marketing, and marketing on third party services); to operate our ad supported subscription plan; for safety, security and fraud prevention; and to comply with law and enforce our Terms of Use.
These technologies enable our marketing providers to collect personal information (such as the pages you visit and device and network information) when you use our services, and our marketing providers may also collect information about your online activities over time across different websites.
We use pixel tags in our emails to understand how members interact with Service. Our use of pixel tags helps us understand when links within messages are clicked, or the emails are opened.
Veels uses resettable device identifiers to display marketing for our service or Veels content on third party services, and to operate our ad supported subscription plan (including delivering Advertisements to you).
How can I exercise choice regarding these technologies?
To exercise choice regarding cookies For more information about cookies set through our service and to exercise choices regarding cookies click here [INSERT LINK]. We do not currently respond to web browser “do not track" signals.
To exercise choice regarding resettable Device identifiers To exercise choice regarding our use of resettable Device identifiers (for marketing the Service or Veels content, or as used in connection with an ad supported subscription plan), please configure the appropriate setting on your Device (usually found under "privacy" or "ads" in your Device settings). If you choose not to allow this, you may still see marketing messages promoting Veels (and Advertisements if you subscribe to an ad supported subscription plan) on that Device but it will not be selected based on the use of a resettable Device identifier. Note that your choice regarding the resettable device identifier is specific to that Device.
To exercise choice regarding other similar technologies In addition to any choices we may offer you in the Service, there are several ways to exercise choice regarding technologies that are similar to cookies, such as browser storage and plugins (for example, HTML5, IndexedDB, and WebSQL). For example, many popular browsers provide the ability to clear browser storage, typically in the settings or preferences area. See your browser's help function or support area to learn more. Most email clients have settings that allow you to prevent the automatic downloading of images, including pixel tags, and the automatic connection to the web servers that host those images. Other technologies may be cleared from within the application.
Sharing your Personal Information
a. Third Party Service Providers
We share your Personal Information with third party service providers to help us use your Personal Information, as described above. For example, we use Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, and LinkedIn Insight to help us understand how our customers use the Website.
In general, these third-party service providers will only collect, use, and disclose your information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform the services they provide to us. However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment transaction processors, have their own privacy policies with respect to the information we are required to provide to them for your purchase-related transactions. For these third-party service providers, it's mandatory that you read their privacy policies so you can understand the manner in which your personal information will be handled. Remember that certain third-party service providers may be located in, or have facilities that are located in, a different jurisdiction than either you or us. So if you elect to proceed with a transaction that involves the services of a third-party, then your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which that third party service provider or its facilities are located. As an example, if you are located in Canada and your transaction is processed by a payment gateway located in the United States, then your personal information used in completing that transaction may be subject to disclosure under United States legislation, including the Patriot Act.Once you leave our Website or Service, or are redirected to a third-party website, service, or application, you are no longer governed by this Privacy Policy or our Terms of Use.
