The Services may integrate third-party advertising technologies (e.g., ad networks and ad servers such as Facebook, Google Ads, etc.) that use cookies and other technologies to deliver relevant content and advertising for Ro products on the Services, as well as on other websites you visit and other applications you use. The ads may be based on various factors such as the content of the page you are visiting, information you enter such as your searches, demographic data, and other information we collect from you. These ads may be based on your current activity or your activity over time and across other websites and online services.<\/span><\/p>\nWe sometimes provide our customer information (such as email addresses) to service providers, who may \u201cmatch\u201d this information in de-identified form to cookies (or mobile ad identifiers) and other proprietary IDs, in order to provide you with more relevant ads when you visit other websites and mobile applications.<\/span><\/p>\nWe neither have access to, nor does this Privacy Policy govern, the use of cookies or other tracking technologies that may be placed on your device you use to access the Services by non-affiliated third party advertising network services. If you are interested in more information about tailored browser advertising and how you can generally control cookies from being put on your computer to deliver tailored advertising, you may visit the Network Advertising Initiative\u2019s Consumer Opt-Out link, the Digital Advertising Alliance\u2019s Consumer Opt-Out link, or Your Online Choices to opt-out of receiving tailored advertising from companies that participate in those programs. If you are interested in more information about Criteo\u2019s privacy practices or opting-out of Criteo\u2019s advertising services, you may view their Privacy Policy. To opt out of Google Analytics for display advertising or customize Google display network ads, visit the Google Ads Settings page. We do not control these opt-out links or whether any particular company chooses to participate in these opt-out programs. We are not responsible for any choices you make using these mechanisms or the continued availability or accuracy of these mechanisms.<\/span><\/p>\nPlease note that if you exercise the opt out choices above, you will still see advertising when you use the Services, but it will not be tailored to you based on your online behavior over time.<\/span><\/p>\n\n- Mobile Advertising<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
When using mobile applications from us or others, you may also receive tailored in-application advertisements. We may use third-party service providers to deliver advertisements on mobile applications or for mobile application analytics. Each operating system, iOS for Apple phones, Android for Android devices, and Windows for Microsoft devices provides its own instructions on how to prevent the delivery of tailored in-application advertisements. We do not control how the applicable platform operator allows you to control receiving personalized in-application advertisements; thus, you should contact the platform provider for further details on opting out of tailored in-application advertisements. You may review the support materials and\/or the device settings for the respective operating systems to opt-out of tailored in-app advertisements.<\/span><\/p>\n\n- Notice Concerning Do Not Track<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

We maintain an enterprise-wide corporate information security and privacy program that includes technical, organizational, administrative, and other security measures designed to protect, as required by applicable law, against reasonably anticipated or actual threats to the security of your personal information (the \u201cSecurity Program\u201d). Our Security Program was created by reference to the obligations set forth under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (\u201cHIPAA\u201d). It includes, among many other things, procedures for assessing the need for, and as appropriate, either employing encryption and multi-factor authentication or using equivalent compensating controls. We therefore have every reason to believe our Security Program is reasonable and appropriate for our business and the nature of foreseeable risks to the personal information we collect. We further periodically review and update our Security Program, including as required by applicable law.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n- Our Incident Response and Management Plan<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
Despite the significant investment we\u2019ve made in, and our commitment to, the Security Program we cannot guarantee that your personal information, whether during transmission or while stored on our systems, otherwise in our care, or the care of our third-party vendors and service providers, will be free from either failed or successful attempts at unauthorized access or that loss or accidental destruction will never occur. Except for our duty under applicable law to maintain the Security Program, we necessarily disclaim, to the maximum extent the law allows, any other liability for any such theft or loss of, unauthorized access or damage to, or interception of any data or communications including personal information.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nAll that said, as part of our Security Program, we have specific incident response and management procedures that are activated whenever we become aware that your personal information was likely to have been compromised. Those procedures include mechanisms to provide, when circumstances and\/or our legal obligations warrant, notice to all affected data subjects within the timeframes required by law, as well as to give them such other mitigation and protection services (such as the credit monitoring and ID theft insurance) as may be required by applicable law. We further require in the contracts with our vendors and business partners that they notify us immediately if they have any reason to believe that an incident adversely affecting personal information we provided to them has occurred.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nFOR USERS IN ILLINOIS<\/span><\/h3>\nAuthorization to Share Information for Marketing Purposes<\/p>\n
