Transactions.
If you conduct a financial or other transaction on the website, such as purchase products or services offered on the website, we will ask you to complete an order form that will request certain information from you, including contact information and financial information. We may also request demographic information. In some instances, we may direct you to a third party vendor site that will collect this information from you directly. Even though the collection form may have the look and feel of our website, you will be giving your information directly to the third party vendor, and in some instances such third party vendor’s privacy policy will govern the collection of your personal information. Please reference the privacy policies available from these pages for any privacy related concerns.
We and/or our vendors will use this information to complete the financial or other transaction that you have requested, that is, to deliver the information, products or other services that you request or purchase and to collect funds or invoice you.
Other Sources.
We may receive information about you (for example, a missing street number) from other sources and add it to your personal information.
INFORMATION COLLECTED THROUGH AUTOMATIC DATA COLLECTION TECHNOLOGIES
Website Usage Information.
We may receive and store certain types of internet usage information whenever you visit the website, such as your traffic data, location data, pages visited, IP address, operating system, and metadata for items made available through the website, such as the date, time or location that a scanned photograph or video was taken or posted. We may combine this information with personally identifiable information we obtain from you directly on the website, or from third parties. This data helps us analyze how visitors arrive at the website, what type of content is most popular, and what type of visitors in the aggregate are interested in particular kinds of content and advertising.
Browser Cookies.
A cookie is a small file placed on the hard drive of your computer. These small bits of code automatically identify your browser to the website whenever your computer is used to visit the website. Cookies also let us know how many people visit the website and where visitors go on the website, as well as non-personally identifiable information, like how many times a user has been on certain pages. For registered users, cookies can make using the website easier for you by saving information such as your passwords or preferences.
By tracking how and when you use the website, cookies help us determine which areas of the website are popular or useful, and which are not. Improvements and updates to the website may be based on data obtained from cookies. Accepting cookies allows you, among other things, to personalize your experience on the website. Cookies may also allow the website to present to you advertising which may be of interest to you. If you do not want information collected through the use of cookies, your browser has a setting that allows you to refuse to accept cookies. Even if you disable or delete cookies related to our web site, we may still be able to recognize users of the website by cross-referencing other data we collected. Some areas of the website may not provide you with a personalized experience if you have disabled the use of cookies.
Flash Cookies.
We may use local shared objects, also known as flash cookies, to store your preferences and navigation to, from and on our website. Third parties that provide certain features on our site or to display advertising based upon your Web browsing activity use flash cookies to collect and store information. Cookie management tools provided by your browser will not remove flash cookies. To learn more about and how to manage settings for flash cookies, please visit adobe.com. Disabling cookies may affect features or functionality of the website.
Web Beacons and Other Tracking Technology.
The website may use a variety of technologies for tracking purposes, including web beacons. Web beacons are small pieces of data that are embedded in images on the pages of websites. We may use these tracking technologies to analyze the traffic patterns on the website, such as the frequency with which our users visit various parts of the website. These technologies may involve the transmission of information either directly to us or to another party. We also may use these technologies in HTML emails that we send to determine whether the recipients have opened those emails and/or clicked on links in those emails. The information from use of these technologies may be collected in a form that is personally identifiable.
Some web browsers incorporate a “Do Not Track” (DNT) or similar feature that signals to digital services that a visitor does not want to have his or her online activity tracked. If a digital service that responds to a particular DNT signal receives the DNT signal, the browser can block that digital service from collecting certain personal information about the browser’s user. Not all browsers offer a DNT option and DNT signals are not uniform. For this reason, we and many other digital service operators may not respond to DNT signals.
Analytics.
We may use Google Analytics or similar services that use technologies such as those described above to analyze use of the website and provide statistics and information about trends. You can visit Google’s website to learn more about Google’s privacy practices.
