The following privacy policy (“Privacy Policy”) is designed to inform you, as a User of the Platform, about the types of information that the Company may gather about or collect from you in connection with your use thereof.

Accordingly, each time you use the Platform you should check the date of this Privacy Policy (which appears at the end of this document) and review any changes since your last visit.

This Privacy Policy is expressly incorporated into our Terms of Service, which can be accessed by clicking the links contained herein. Any defined or capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in our Terms of Service.

Please note that this Privacy Policy does not apply to the practices of third parties who you may choose to share information with when you use the Platform. Please note that the collection and use of your information by these third parties is subject to their own privacy policies and terms.

Gathering, Use and Disclosure of Non-Personally-Identifying Information

Users of the Platform Generally

“Non-Personally-Identifying Information” is information that, without the aid of additional information, cannot be directly associated with a specific person. “Personally-Identifying Information,” by contrast, is information such as a name or email address that, without more, can be directly associated with a specific person. Like most website operators, the Company gathers from Users Non-Personally-Identifying Information of the sort that web browsers and mobile device applications, depending on their settings, may make available. That information includes a User’s Internet Protocol (IP) address, operating system, browser type and the locations of websites or apps the User views right before arriving at, while navigating and immediately after leaving the Platform, as more fully described herein. Although such information is not Personally-Identifying Information, it may be possible for Company to determine from an IP address a User’s internet service provider and the geographic location of the visitor’s point of connectivity as well as other statistical usage data. Company may analyze Non-Personally-Identifying Information gathered from Users to help the Company better understand how the Platform is being used. By identifying patterns and trends in usage, Company is able to better design the Platform to improve Users’ experiences, both in terms of content and ease of use. From time to time, Company may also release the Non-Personally-Identifying Information gathered from Users in the aggregate, such as by publishing a report on trends in the usage of the Platform.

Automatically Collected Information.

Certain data about the devices you use to connect with our Platform and your use thereof are automatically logged in our systems, including:

Mobile Device Information. If you use a mobile device to access the Platform, we may collect device information (such as your mobile device ID, model, and manufacturer), operating system, version information and IP address.

Log data. As with most websites and technology services delivered over the internet, our servers automatically collect data when you access or use our Platform and record it in log files. This log data may include the IP address, browser type and settings, the date and time of use, information about browser configuration, language preferences, and cookie data.

Usage information. This is information about the Platform and how you use it. We may also obtain data from our third-party partners and service providers to analyze how Users use our Platform. For example, we will know how many Users access a specific page on the Platform and which links they clicked on. We use this aggregated information to better understand and optimize the Platform.

Device information. This is data from your computer or mobile device, such as the type of hardware and software you are using (for example, your operating system and browser type), as well as unique device identifiers for devices that are using our software.

Web Cookies. Data obtained from cookies are described below and in our Cookie Policy.

Web Cookies

Web Cookies are small text files stored on your device and used by web browsers to deliver personalized content and remember logins and account settings. The Company uses Web Cookies and similar technologies, including tracking pixels and web beacons, to collect usage and analytic data that helps us provide our Platform to you, as well as to help deliver ads for relevant products and services to you when you visit certain pages on the Platform and then visit certain third-party sites. For more information on cookies and how the Company uses them, please see our Cookie Policy.

PLATFORM USERS WHO DO NOT WISH TO HAVE WEB COOKIES PLACED ON THEIR COMPUTERS SHOULD SET THEIR BROWSERS TO REFUSE WEB COOKIES BEFORE ACCESSING THE PLATFORM, WITH THE UNDERSTANDING THAT CERTAIN FEATURES OF THE PLATFORM MAY NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY WITHOUT THE AID OF WEB COOKIES. PLATFORM USERS WHO REFUSE WEB COOKIES ASSUME ALL RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY RESULTING LOSS OF FUNCTIONALITY.

Web Beacons.

A “Web Beacon” is an object that is embedded in a web page or email that is usually invisible to the user and allows website operators to check whether a user has viewed a particular web page or an email. Company may use Web Beacons on the Platform and in emails to count Users who have visited particular pages, viewed emails and to deliver co-branded services. Web Beacons are not used to access Users’ Personally-Identifying Information. They are a technique that the Company may use to compile aggregated statistics about Platform usage. Web Beacons collect only a limited set of information, including a number, time and date of a page or email view and a description of the page or email on which the Web Beacon resides. You may not decline Web Beacons. However, they can be rendered ineffective by declining all Web Cookies or modifying your browser setting to notify you each time a Web Cookie is tendered, permitting you to accept or decline Web Cookies on an individual basis.

Analytics.

We may use third-party vendors, including Google, who use first-party Web Cookies (such as the Google Analytics cookie) and third-party Web Cookies (such as the DoubleClick cookie) together to inform, optimize and serve ads based on your past activity on the Platform, including Google Analytics for Display Advertising. The information collected may be used to, among other things, analyze and track data, determine the popularity of certain content and better understand online activity. If you do not want any information to be collected and used by Google Analytics, you can install an opt-out in your web browser (https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout/) and/or opt out from Google Analytics for Display Advertising or the Google Display Network by using Google’s Ads Settings (www.google.com/settings/ads). More information on Web Cookies can be found in our Cookie Policy.

Aggregated and Non-Personally-Identifying Information

We may share aggregated and Non-Personally Identifying Information we collect under any of the above circumstances. We may also share it with third parties and our affiliate companies to develop and deliver targeted advertising on the Platform and on websites of third parties. We may combine Non-Personally Identifying Information we collect with additional Non-Personally Identifying Information collected from other sources. We also may share aggregated information with third parties, including advisors, advertisers, and investors, for the purpose of conducting general business analysis. For example, we may tell our advertisers the number of visitors to the Platform and the most popular features or services accessed. This information does not contain any Personally-Identifying Information and may be used to develop Platform content and services that we hope you and other Users will find of interest and to target content and advertising.

Additional Terms for Mobile Device Users

Geo-Location Information. Unless we have received your prior consent, we do not access or track any location-based information from your mobile device at any time while accessing our Platform on your mobile device, except that it may be possible for Company to determine from an IP address the geographic location of your point of connectivity, in which case we may gather and use such general location data.

Social Media. We may use hyperlinks on the Platform which will redirect you to a social network if you click on the respective link. However, when you click on a social plug-in, such as Facebook’s “Like” button, Twitter’s “tweet” button or the Google+, that particular social network’s plugin will be activated, and your browser will directly connect to that provider’s servers. If you do not use these buttons, none of your data will be sent to the respective social network’s plugin provider. So, for example, when you click on the Facebook’s “Like” button on the Platform, Facebook will receive your IP address, the browser version and screen resolution, and the operating system of the device you have used to access the Platform. Settings regarding privacy protection can be found on the websites or applications of these social networks and are not within our control. Please be aware that when you use third-party sites or services, their own terms and privacy policies will govern your use of those sites or services.

As defined above, Personally-Identifying Information is information that can be directly associated with a specific person. Company may collect a range of Personally-Identifying Information from and about Users.

This information allows ad networks to, among other things, deliver targeted advertisements that they believe will be of most interest to you. This Privacy Policy does not cover the use of cookies by any advertisers.

gosadi is affiliated with AWIN (“AWIN”) for the purposes of placing advertising on the Platform, and AWIN will collect and use certain data for advertising purposes. To learn more about Awin’s data usage, please review AWIN’s Privacy Policy, to which you expressly agree.

Such third-party service providers referenced herein may have access to Personally-Identifying Information needed to perform their agreed-upon services. You acknowledge and agree that each third-party service provider to whom Personally-Identifying Information is shared may have their own privacy practices and Company disclaims any liability for the re-use or dissemination of any Personally-Identifying Information by any third-party with whom your Personally-Identifying Information is shared.

Business Transfers; Bankruptcy. Company reserves the right to transfer all Personally-Identifying Information in its possession to a successor organization in the event of a merger, acquisition, bankruptcy or other sale of all or a portion of Company’s assets. Other than to the extent ordered by a bankruptcy or other court, the use and disclosure of all transferred Personally-Identifying Information will be subject to this Privacy Policy, or to a new privacy policy if you are given notice of that new privacy policy and are given an opportunity to affirmatively opt-out of it.
