When you interact with our Product(s), you may choose to provide information that could reasonably be used to contact you, or to identify you personally, or that otherwise relates to your person (“Personal Information”), such as:

  • Your contact information (e.g., name, e-mail address, postal address, and telephone number);

The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Information We Automatically Collect or Receive When You Use Our Product(s).

Whenever you interact with our Product(s), we, as well as any of our service providers, may use a variety of technologies that automatically or passively collect information about how the Product(s)s are accessed and used (“Usage Information”). Usage Information may include, among other things:

  • Your browser type and operating system;
  • Sites you visited before and after visiting the Product(s);
  • Pages, video, and links you click and the duration you view the Product(s);
  • Information collected through cookies, web beacons, and other technologies; and
  • Information about your interactions with e-mail messages, such as the links clicked on and whether the messages were opened or forwarded.

Usage Information is generally non-identifying, but if we associate it with you as a specific and identifiable person, we will treat it as Personal Information. We do not alter our Site’s data collection and use practices when we see a Do Not Track signal from your browser.

Device Identifiers.

In the course of collecting Usage Information, we may also automatically collect your IP address, or other unique identifiers (“Device Identifier”) for the computer, mobile device, Wi-Fi card, technology, or other devices (collectively, “Device”) you use to access the Product(s).

A Device Identifier is a number that is automatically assigned to your Device when you access a website or its servers, and our computers identify your Device by its Device Identifier. When you visit the Product(s), we may view your Device Identifier. We use this information to determine the physical location of your Device, including longitude and latitude information. We may also use this information to enhance the Product(s) and we may associate your Device Identifier with your Personal Information.

Cookies and Similar Technologies.

We may use cookies, pixel tags, Local Shared Objects (sometimes referred to as “Flash Cookies”), and similar technologies to automatically collect this information. Cookies are small bits of information that are stored by your computer’s web browser. Pixel tags are very small images or small pieces of data embedded in images, also known as “web beacons” or “clear GIFs,” that can recognize cookies, the time and date a page is viewed, a description of the page where the pixel tag is placed, and similar information from your computer or device. Local Shared Objects or Flash Cookies are similar to standard cookies except that they can be larger and are downloaded to a computer or mobile device by the Adobe Flash media player.

We may allow third parties to place and read their own cookies, web beacons, Local Shared Objects, and similar technologies to collect information through the Product(s). For example, our third-party service providers may use these technologies to collect information that helps us with traffic measurement, research, and analytics.

By using the Product(s), you consent to our use of cookies and similar technologies. You can decide if and how your computer will accept a cookie by configuring your preferences or options in your browser. However, if you choose to reject cookies, you may not be able to use certain online products, services, or features on the Product(s). Please note that you may need to take additional steps beyond changing your browser settings to refuse or disable Local Shared Objects and similar technologies. If you choose to refuse, disable, or delete these technologies, some of the functionality of the Product(s) may no longer be available to you.
