    • Web beacons. Pages of the Services and our emails may contain small electronic files known as web beacons (also referred to as clear gifs, pixel tags and single-pixel gifs) that permit the Company, for example, to count users who have visited those pages or opened an email and for other related app statistics (for example, recording the popularity of certain app content and verifying system and server integrity).

  • 14.

    We may also use these technologies to collect information about your activities over time and across third-party websites, apps or other online services (behavioural tracking). To learn more or to opt-out of tailored advertising, please visit Digital Advertising Alliance of Canada Opt-Out Tool for information on how you can opt out of behavioural tracking on or through the Services, and how we respond to browser signals and other mechanisms that help users exercise their choices about behavioural tracking.

    The information that we collect automatically is statistical data and does not include personal information. We may maintain it or associate it with personal information that we collect in other ways, that you provide to us, or that we receive from third parties.

  • 31.

    We strive to provide you with choices regarding the personal information that you provide to us. We have created mechanisms to provide you with the following control over your information:

    • Location Information. You can choose whether to allow the Services to collect and use real-time information about your device's location through the device's privacy settings. If you block the use of location information, some parts of the App may be inaccessible or not function properly.

  • 32.

    We do not control third parties' collection or use of your information to serve behavioural advertising. These third parties may provide you with additional choices about how they use your information or ways to choose not to have your information collected or used in this way.

VIII.DATA SECURITY

  • 33.

    The security of your personal information is very important to us. We use physical, electronic and administrative measures designed to secure your personal information from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, alteration and disclosure.

Where we have given you (or you have chosen) a pin code or password for access to certain parts of the Services, you are responsible for keeping it confidential. We ask you not to share your pin code or password with anyone. We urge you to be careful about giving out information in public areas of the Services like message boards, which any visitor can view.

  • 35.

    Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the Internet and mobile platforms is not completely secure. Although we do our best to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information as transmitted through the Services. Any transmission of personal information is at your own risk. We are not responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures.
