Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies

We use various technologies to collect information, and this may include placing cookies on your computer. A "cookie" is a small file containing a string of characters that is sent to your computer and stored on your hard drive when you visit a website; many major Web services use them to provide useful features for their users. Each web site can send its own cookie to your browser. Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies. You can reset your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent; however if you reject cookies, you will not be able to sign in to the Services or take full advantage of our Services.

We may also use "pixel tags," which are small graphic files that can collect information such as the IP address of the computer that downloaded the page on which the tag appears; the URL of the page on which the pixel tag appears; the time (and length of time) the page containing the pixel tag was viewed; the type of browser that retrieved the pixel tag; and the identification number of any cookie previously placed by that server on your computer. We may use pixel tags, either provided by us or by our third party advertisers and ad networks, to collect information about your visit, including the pages you view, the links you click and other actions taken in connection with our sites and Services and use them in combination with our cookies to provide offers and information of interest to you.

We also may allow certain analytic services and providers of applications used on the Services (e.g. sharing buttons) to collect information by placing cookies on the Services that will track certain performance of our Services, such as, web traffic, click-throughs, etc., in order to assist us and our service providers in better understanding the interests of our users and to better serve those interests.

We may use other companies under agreements with us to serve advertisements on our behalf and to provide analytics services. These companies may collect and use information about your visits to the Services and other Web sites (including your IP address, web browser, pages viewed, time spent on pages, links clicked and conversion information) in order to, among other things, provide advertisements about goods and services likely to be of greater interest to you and to better understand your online activities. These companies typically use a cookie, a third party web beacon and/or pixel tags to collect this information. To learn more about this behavioral advertising practice in general and the options that you have, including your option or to opt-out of this type of advertising, you can visit www.aboutads.info/choices.

We may also work with third parties to serve ads to you as part of a customized campaign on third-party platforms (such as Facebook or Instagram). As part of these ad campaigns, we or third-party platforms may convert information about you, such as your email address and phone number, into a unique value that can be matched with a user account on these platforms to allow us to learn about your interests and to serve you advertising that is customized to your interests.

Links to Third Party Sites

The sites displayed as search results or linked to by the Services are developed by people over whom GizmoGrind Inc exercises no control. These other sites may place their own cookies on your computer, collect data or solicit personal information. GizmoGrind Inc may present links in a format that enables us to understand whether they have been followed. We use this information to understand and improve the quality of GizmoGrind Inc's search technology. For instance, this data helps us determine how often users are satisfied with the first result of a query and how often they proceed to later results.

Social Media Plug-ins

Social media plug-ins of social networks such as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Yahoo, Windows and Google plus (among others) are integrated on GizmoGrind Inc's website. Where GizmoGrind Inc sites contain a plug-in to a social network, these are clearly marked (e.g. with a Facebook button). If you chose to click on one of these buttons or links, your browser connects directly to the servers of the relevant social network. The social network directly transmits the content of the plugin to your browser. If you are registered on the relevant social network and logged into your respective account the social network receives the information that the web page was used by you. If you interact with a social network plug-in (e.g. you press the Facebook "Like" feature, the Twitter "Tweet this" feature and Google plus "1+" button or equivalent) or drop a comment on the appropriate web page, the corresponding information is directly transmitted to the relevant social network from your browser. If you are not registered with the social network or you are logged out before you visit GizmoGrind Inc's website, there is the possibility that at least your IP address will be submitted to and stored by the social network. If you interact with us through a social media platform, plug-in etc. then you may be permitting us to have on-going access to some limited information from your social network profile (such as name, email address, photo, gender, location, the people/sites you follow etc.). If you do not want the social network to collect the information about you described above, or to share it with GizmoGrind Inc and other third parties, please review the privacy policy of the relevant social network and/or log out of the relevant social network before you visit GizmoGrind Inc's site. As with other sites, you may be able delete any existing cookies placed on your computer by the social network via your browser.

However, third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications, and other users may abuse or misuse your personal information that they collect from the site. Therefore, although we work very hard to protect your privacy, we do not promise, and you should not expect, that your personal information or private communications will always remain private.
