Some of the technologies we use to collect information automatically include:

Cookies: Cookies are small text files that websites send to your computer or other Internet-connected device to uniquely identify your browser or to store information or settings in your browser. Your browser may tell you how to be notified when you receive certain types of cookies and how to restrict or disable certain cookies. Some cookies may exist for only a single session and some are persistent for multiple sessions over time. We may use cookies that are managed by Apoyo Seguro Inc. or by third parties (such as social media website cookies) for the purposes provided in this Privacy Statement, including for session management, authentication, user preference storage, Website performance and personalization, Website analytics, advertising (including affiliate marketing), content management, e-commerce, search, security, and social media integration.

Web server logs: In conjunction with obtaining information through cookies, our web servers may log details regarding your device, operating system, or information about your Website usage.

Web beacons, pixels, and analytics software: To control which web servers collect information described above, we may place tags on our Website or in emails called “web beacons” or “pixels.” These are computer instructions that link web pages to particular web servers and their cookies. Web beacons and pixels can be used to track the pages you view, links that you click, or other online behavior. These tools may also be used to measure the effectiveness of our email campaigns by identifying the individuals who open or act upon an email message, when an email message is opened, how many times an email message is forwarded, the type of software, device, operating system and browser used to deliver the email, and any URL accessed through our email message. Such tools are also used in connection with online advertisements on our Website and on third-party websites to collect the same types of information with respect to individuals who click on advertisements.

Other: we may use other technology to collect information for the purposes described in this Privacy Statement.

Such technologies may permit collection of data elements such as demographic data, browser type, MAC address and other unique device information, operating system type and settings, domain, the address of the web page that linked you to our Website, IP address, pages visited, whether you have visited us before or are new to the Website, activities conducted on the page (such as search queries), and the day and time of your visit. If you access our Websites from a mobile device, we may collect your precise location using GPS, cell tower, Bluetooth, or Wi-Fi signals. You may turn this feature off in your device settings at any time. This information may be correlated to other data that identifies you specifically.

At this time, we do not honor “do not track” signals from website browsers. However, you may refuse or delete cookies. If you refuse or delete cookies, some of the functionality of our Websites may be impaired. If you turn off cookies, Web beacon and other technologies will still detect visits to our Websites, but the information they generate cannot be associated with other non-identifiable cookie information and are disregarded. Please refer to your browser Help instructions to learn more about how to manage cookies and the use of similar technologies.
