California Online Privacy Protection Act Notice

However, some third party sites may keep track of your browsing activities when they serve you content, which enables them to tailor what they present to you. If you are visiting such sites, your web browser may allow you to set the DNT signal on your browser so that third parties (particularly advertisers) know you do not want to be tracked.

Cookies and Web Beacons

Our Service, Application and/or Website use “cookie” and “web beacon” technology. “Cookies” are short pieces of data generated by a web server or mobile application that a Service, Application and/or Website stores on a user’s device. Our Service, Application and/or Website may require the use of a cookie for purposes of keeping information you enter on multiple pages together. Cookies also enable us to customize our Service, Application and/or Website and offerings to your needs and provide you with a better online experience with us. In addition, cookies are used to:

measure usage of various pages on our Service, Application and/or Website to help us make our information more pertinent to your needs and easy for you to access; and
provide functionality such as online orders, our Service, Application and/or Website and other functionality that we believe would be of interest and value to you.

The types of cookies that we use are referred to as “session” cookies and “persistent” cookies. Session cookies are temporary and are automatically deleted once you stop using the Service, Application and/or Website. Persistent cookies remain on your hard drive of your device until you delete them. Cookies do not, under ordinary circumstances, corrupt or damage your device, programs, or files.

In addition, the Service, Application and/or Website providers we use to serve and host our advertisements, and/or deliver our e-mails use session and persistent cookies, to track the number of times the Service, Application and/or Website is accessed and whether the Service, Application and/or Website was accessed from an advertisement. There are no cookies in the advertisements or e-mails. A cookie is placed on your device only if and when you click on an advertisement or open the e-mail. The cookie generated from the advertisement or e-mail does not contain any personally identifiable information and will remain on your hard drive until you delete it.

Beacons are used in combination with cookies to help website and mobile applications’ operators understand how visitors interact with their online Service, Application and/or Website. A beacon is typically a transparent graphic image (usually 1 pixel x 1 pixel). In contrast to cookies, which are stored on a user’s hard drive, beacons are embedded invisibly on online pages and are about the size of the period at the end of this sentence. These beacons are not tied to personally identifiable information. The use of beacons allows the application to measure the actions of the visitor using the application that contains the beacon. It makes it easier to follow and record the activities of a recognized browser, such as the path of visited pages and/or applications. We use the information provided by beacons to develop a better understanding of how our users use the Service, Application and/or Website, and to facilitate those users’ interactions with the Service, Application and/or Website. We may make the aggregate data obtained from analytics (including from our third party analytics providers, if applicable) publicly available. If this data is made available, none of the information will be personally identifying information or potentially-personally identifying information.

Location Identification; mobile

When you download or access Application via a mobile device, we and our service providers may receive information about your geolocation (based on your IP address) and your mobile device, including various unique identifiers associated with your device, hardware type, the version of your operating system.

Our use of location-specific information enables you to use our services in the most effective way. When you use our location-specific Website or Application, we collect and process information about your actual location, via GPS signals sent by your mobile device to our servers. We may also use other technologies to determine location, based on nearby Wi-Fi access points, satellites, or cell towers. Additional information regarding your location and that of other users will be collected and saved by FINMATEX, and may include your mobile device identification number, web requests, IP and web addresses, domain names, search terms, pages viewed, page features, number of clicks, as well as the dates, times, and results of searches.

Our Website or Application may include features and functionalities provided by third parties and other services. FINMATEX may ask you to download, register, or accept the services of these third parties. Please keep in mind, however, that by enabling and accepting such third party services, you are allowing FINMATEX to pass along the identifying information stored by FINMATEX to and from these third parties. We highly recommend reviewing our Privacy Policy and Terms of Use for more information about how FINMATEX’s use, storage, and disclosure of your information affects you.
