How We Use the Information We Collect from you

We use the information that we collect about you in a number of ways.

• To provide, maintain, and improve our Services.
• To communicate with you about our Services at your request, such as to provide you with customer support and to respond to your inquiries.
• To personalise your experience on our Services, including through advertising, and to provide you information about our Services and particular offers that you may be interested in.

How We Share the Information We Collect from You

We may disclose the information we collect from you with third parties for business purposes (as defined by applicable law) or as required by applicable law as described in this section.

We share your information with the following entities:

• Our service providers that perform services on our behalf.
• Our affiliates. We may share information we collect within our family of companies to deliver products and services to you and to enhance our products, services, and customer experience.
• Third party merchants. When you click on one of our product reviews to make a purchase, some internet and device information is sent to the third party seller to let them know that you came from our site where it is necessary to fulfil the transaction (i.e. get paid) for referring you there. 
• Third parties for legal purposes. We may disclose information that we collect and maintain about you if we are required to do so by law or in a good faith belief that such disclosure is reasonably necessary to comply with legal process, protect the rights, property, or safety of ourselves, our users, the public, or other third parties.
• Sale of all or part of our business. We may disclose information in connection with a corporate transaction, including for example a merger, investment, acquisition, reorganisation, consolidation, bankruptcy, liquidation, or sale of some or all our assets or due diligence in contemplation of a transaction.
• Third-party online advertisers and ad networks. Our services may disclose information to third party advertising networks to allow for the delivery of advertising on other websites you visit and other applications you use.
• We may aggregate and we may de-identify information collected by the Services or via other means so that the information is not intended to identify you. Our use and disclosure of aggregated and/or de-identified information is not subject to any restrictions under this Privacy Policy, and we may disclose it to others without limitation for any purpose.

Online Analytics

We may use third-party web analytics services on our Services, such as those of Google Analytics and similar providers. These service providers use cookies and similar technologies to help us analyse how users use the Services, including by noting the third-party website from which you arrive. The information (including your IP address) collected by the technology will be disclosed to or collected directly by these service providers, who use the information to evaluate your use of the Services. We also use Google Analytics for certain purposes related to advertising, as described in the following section. To prevent Google Analytics from using your information for analytics, you may install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on by clicking here.

Interest-Based Advertising Services

Third parties, including without limitation those whose products or services are accessible or advertised via the Services, may place cookies or other tracking technologies (such as mobile ‘SDKs,’ which function as a mobile version of a browser cookie and are embedded in mobile applications) on your computer browser, mobile phone applications, or other devices to collect information about your use of the Services in order to (i) inform, optimise, and serve ads based on past visits to our websites and other sites and mobile applications and (ii) report how our ad impressions, other uses of ad services, and interactions with these ad impressions and ad services are related to visits to our websites and use of our Services. We also allow other third parties to serve interest-based ads to you on the Services, and to access their own cookies or other tracking technologies on your computer, mobile phone, or other devices you use to access the Services so that interest-based ads may be delivered to you when you are using other websites and mobile applications. 

The third parties that use these technologies may offer you a way to opt-out of interest-based ad targeting as described below. We do not maintain or control these opt-opt mechanisms, which are provided by non-affiliated third parties. Further, we do not control which third parties choose to participate in these opt-out mechanisms.

If you have a Google account, we may use Google Analytics to display advertising to you. You can opt-out of Google Analytics for display advertising or customise Google display network ads by visiting the Google Ads Settings Support page. You will need to log in to Google via the Sign In link if you are not already logged in when you visit that page.

Please note that opting out of interest-based advertising does not mean that you will no longer see advertising on the Services, but these ads may be less relevant to your interests.

Protecting Your Information and Data

We are committed to maintaining the security of personal information. We employ a variety of administrative, technical and operational security measures based on the sensitivity of the information we collect to secure and protect such information. Please remember, though, that neither the Internet nor any method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure. Thus, while we take appropriate measures to safeguard against unauthorised disclosures of information, we cannot guarantee that information that we collect will never be disclosed in a manner that is inconsistent with this Privacy Policy.
