When users visit a Google partner's website, a cookie may be dropped on that end user's browser. Third party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on Your prior visits to the Site or other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to You based on Your visits to the Site and/or other sites on the Internet. You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Your Ads Settings.

We may use session video recordings for our internal statistical purposes, market analysis, for the purposes of web analytics, and for the purposes of site improvement in accordance with specific visitors’ requirements.

Cookies

company.com uses a software technology called "cookies." Cookies are small text files that We and certain third parties place in visitors' computer browsers to store their preferences. Cookies, by themselves, do not tell Us Your e-mail address or other Personal Information unless You choose to provide this information to Us by, for example, registering at Our Site. However, once You choose to furnish the Site with Personal Information, this information may be linked to the data stored in the cookie.

We may also use small pieces of code called "web beacons" or "clear gifs" to collect anonymous and aggregate advertising metrics, including, but not limited to counting page views, promotion views and advertising responses. These "web beacons" may be used to deliver cookies that conform to Our cookie policy.

We use ads provided by third-party advertisers to support the Site. Some of these advertisers may use technology such as cookies and web beacons when they advertise on Our Site, which will also send these advertisers (such as Google through the Google AdSense program) information including Your IP address, Your ISP, the browser You used to visit Our Site, and in some cases, whether You have Flash installed. This is generally used for geotargeting purposes (showing New York real estate ads to someone in New York, for example) or showing certain ads based on specific sites visited (such as showing real estate ads to someone who frequents realty sites). If you would like to unsubscribe from the ads, please follow the instructions here.

You may adjust your browser to reject cookies from Us or from any other website. Please consult the "Help" section of Your browser for more information. However, certain areas of Our Site can only be accessed in conjunction with cookies or similar identifiers and You should be aware that disabling cookies or similar identifiers might prevent You from accessing some of Our content.

In addition to cookies, We also utilize MD5 hashing algorithms at the stages of registration and complaint posting. In the event a user decides to post a complaint on Our Site and chooses to provide his/her e-mail address, such a user receives a thank-you e-mail containing a link to the complaint. This link includes a hash which, provided that a user follows it, ensures that such a user has an option to log in and/or register automatically by utilizing data stored on Our server from such user’s initial visit. Thus, We make your experience of using Our Site more convenient.

Making a Call to Customer Service

company.com offers You a possibility to make a call to a representative of a company of your choice, provided that such a company is present on the Site and that We have a corresponding telephone number to make such a call. To operate this functionality, We use a cloud communications platform called Twilio.

It is a third-party tool, and We use it in strict compliance with Twilio Terms of Service and Twilio Privacy Policy. To use this functionality, you need to have an account on the Site, so that information about Your calls could be stored in Your user profile for Your convenience and possible further use.

If You decide to make a call to a representative of a company of Your choice via Our Site, We also offer you the “Skip the Hold” option. To operate this functionality, We use a third-party tool provided by DayApp. We use it in compliance with DayApp Terms and Conditions and DayApp Privacy Policy, but for storing of phone call records and phone numbers which DayApp shall not do. In the event the provisions of the above-mentioned DayApp Terms and Conditions and/or DayApp Privacy Policy conflict with any provision(s) of this Privacy Policy and/or Our Terms of Use Agreement, the provisions of this Privacy Policy and/or Our Terms of Use Agreement shall prevail.
