COOKIES AND ADVERTISING NETWORKS
We use cookies and other tracking technologies to track information about your use of our Sites. We may combine this information with other Personally Identifiable Information we collect from you. Cookies are small pieces of text used to store information on web browsers. Some cookies allow us to make it easier for you to navigate our Site, while others are used to enable a faster log-in process or to allow us to track your activities at our Sites.
Our media advertising partners also may use cookies or other tools to identify individuals or groups for marketing purposes.
For example:
• Facebook. We also use Personally Identifiable Information and other information provided by users in combination with Facebook to create and target audiences, as well as measure and optimize our advertising. To learn more about Facebook’s privacy policy and use of cookies, go to https://www.facebook.com/privacy/explanation and https://www.facebook.com/policies/cookies/.

These applications use cookies and other tracking technologies to perform their services. To learn more about Google’s privacy policy, go to https://policies.google.com/privacy.
• Third Party Advertisers. We may use network advertisers to serve advertisements on third-party websites or other media (e.g., social networking platforms). This enables us and the advertisers to target advertisements to you for products and services in which you might be interested. Network advertisers may use cookies and other tracking technologies to measure the effectiveness of their ads and to personalize advertising content to you. These cookies and other technologies are governed by each entity’s specific privacy policy, not this one. We may provide these advertisers with information, including Personally Identifiable Information, about you.
CHOICES REGARDING YOUR DATA
Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but if you prefer you can edit your browser options to block them in the future. The “Help” portion of the toolbar on most browsers will tell you how to prevent your computer from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, or how to disable cookies altogether. Visitors to our Sites who disable cookies will be able to browse certain areas of the Site, but some features may not function.
In addition, users in the United States may opt out of many third-party ad networks. For example, you may go to the Digital Advertising Alliance (“DAA”) Consumer Choice Page for information about opting out of interest-based advertising and their choices regarding having information used by DAA companies. You may also go to the Network Advertising Initiative (“NAI”) Consumer Opt-Out Page for information about opting out of interest-based advertising and their choices regarding having information used by NAI members. Please note that you will still receive advertisements, including those based on the particular website you are viewing. Also, if your browser is configured to reject cookies when you opt out on a consumer choice website, your opt out choice may not be effective.
You can also download the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on to prevent your data from being used by Google Analytics at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
Currently, our systems do not recognize browser “do-not-track” requests.
THIRD-PARTY LINKS
Our Sites may contain links to third-party websites. Any access to and use of such linked websites is not governed by this Policy, but instead is governed by the privacy policies of those third-party websites. We are not responsible for the information practices of third-party websites.
SECURITY
We have implemented commercially reasonable precautions, including, where appropriate, password protection, encryption, SSL, firewalls, and internal restrictions on who may access data to protect the information we collect from loss, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. Please be aware that despite our best efforts, no data security measures can guarantee 100% security.
You should take steps to protect against unauthorized access to your accounts and computer by, among other things, signing off after using a shared computer, choosing a robust password that nobody else knows or can easily guess, and keeping your log-in and password private. We are not responsible for any lost, stolen, or compromised passwords or for any activity on your account via unauthorized password activity.

If you prefer not to receive such communications from Celebree, you will have the ability to unsubscribe by means of a link provided in such emails from Celebree or by contacting us by clicking here.
