7. PASSIVE COLLECTION OF INFORMATION
  1. As you navigate this website, anonymous information can be passively collected (that is, gathered without you actively providing the information) using various technologies including (without limitation), cookies, tracking, Internet tags or web beacons, and navigational data collection (log files, server logs, clickstream) to collect data on our users’ behaviour and their devices (e.g. device's IP addresses (captured and stored in anonymized form), device screen size, device type (unique device identifiers), browser information, geographic location (country only), preferred language used to display our website. This is stored in a pseudonymized user profile. We do not use this information to identify individual users or to match it with further data on an individual user. Your Internet browser automatically transmits to this site or that of our service provider some of this anonymous information, including (without limitations) such as the URL of the website you just came from and the Internet Protocol (IP) address and the browser version your computer is currently using. This site may also collect anonymous information from your computer through cookies, tracking, and Internet tags or web beacons. You may set your browser to notify you when a cookie is sent or to refuse cookies altogether, but certain features of this site might not work without cookies. You can opt-out to the creation of a user profile, storing of data about your usage of our site and the use of tracking and tracking cookies on other websites by following the instructions in your browser regarding disabling cookies or enabling the “do not track” option or the like.
  2. This passively collected anonymous information is used to understand user experience ( e.g. how much time they spend on which pages, which links they choose to click, what users do and don’t like, etc.) and this enables us to build and maintain our services with user feedback and to provide better service to site visitors, customize the site based on your preferences, compile and analyze statistics and trends, and otherwise administer and improve the site for your use. We may use the information we collect in order to personalise offers and the website for our users (for example, recommend products or features to you based on what you have liked in the past).
  3. What is passively collected information?
    1. A "cookie" is a bit of information that a website sends to your browser that helps the site remember information about you and your preferences.
    2. "Session" cookies are temporary bits of information that are used to improve navigation, block visitors from providing information where inappropriate (the site "remembers" previous entries of age or country of origin that were outside the specified parameters and blocks subsequent changes) and collect aggregate statistical information on the website. They are erased once you exit your web browser or otherwise turn off your computer.
    3. "Persistent" cookies are more permanent bits of information that are placed on the hard drive of your computer and stay there unless you delete the cookie. Persistent cookies store information on your computer for a number of purposes, such as retrieving certain information you have previously provided (such as your age, which we use to personalize the web experience), helping to determine what areas of the website visitors find most valuable, and customizing the website based on your preferences on an ongoing basis. Persistent cookies placed by this site on your computer do not hold personally identifiable information. If you have registered or have otherwise consented to the retention of personally identifiable information you have provided to the site, then the contents of cookies may be used to identify you to the site, so that the site may provide you services, such as the ability to view premium content and the ability to post messages
    4. You can set your browser to accept all cookies, to reject all cookies, or to notify you whenever a cookie is offered so that you can decide each time whether to accept it. To learn more about cookies and how to specify your preferences, please search for "cookie" in the "Help" portion of your browser.
    5. A site may use Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. The IP address can be used to diagnose problems with a server, report aggregate information, determine the fastest route for your computer to use in connecting to a site, and administer and improve the site.
    6. "Internet tags" (also known as single-pixel GIFs, clear GIFs, invisible GIFs, and 1-by-1 GIFs) are smaller than cookies and tell the website server information such as the IP address and browser type related to the visitor's computer. Tags may be placed both on online advertisements that bring people to the site and on different pages of the site. Such tags indicate how many times a page is opened and which information is consulted.
    7. "Navigational data" (log files, server logs, and clickstream data) are used for system management, to improve the content of the site, market research purposes, and to communicate information to visitors.
