4. Health Information

We may receive certain health information about you in the course of providing the Service.

We offer and provide Services in a manner that complies with all applicable laws and regulations that we are aware of and/or become known to us and will continue to do so.

5. Cookies:

We store certain information that gets collected automatically at our end through cookies and other similar technologies. A cookie is a small string of information that a website that you visit transfers to your browser for identification purposes. Cookies can be used to follow your activity while using a website or across websites, and that information helps companies understand your preferences and tendencies, as well as improve and personalize your website experience. Some cookies are necessary to operate a website, while others can be functional, analytical, or used for marketing purposes, including targeted advertising (as discussed in more detail below). Cookies on our Sites are generally divided into the following categories:

  • Strictly Necessary Cookies. These are required for the operation of our Sites. They include, for example, cookies that enable you to log into password-protected portions of our Sites.
  • Analytical/Performance Cookies. These allow us to recognize and count the number of users on our Sites and understand how such users navigate through the Sites (e.g., when and which pages are visited, in what order the pages are visited, and where a user is located). This helps improve how the Sites work, for example, by ensuring that users can find what they are looking for easily.

    We use Google Analytics for part of this process. For more information about Google Analytics, please visit http://www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/. You can opt-out of Google Analytics’ collection and use of data generated by your use of the Sites by going to https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

  • Functional Cookies. These improve the functional performance of the Sites and make it easier for you to use. For example, cookies are used to remember that you previously visited one of our Sites and asked to remain logged into it. These cookies qualify as persistent cookies because they remain on your device for us to use during your next visit to the Site.
  • Marketing Cookies. These record your visit to the Site, the pages you have visited, and the links you have followed to recognize you as a previous visitor, and to track your activity on the Site and other websites you visit. These cookies are used to display ads on other websites based on your visits to the Site and other online activity. These cookies qualify as persistent cookies because they remain on your device. For more information about targeted advertising and how to opt out with your specific browser and device, go to the Network Advertising Initiative and the Digital Advertising Alliance. If you opt-out, you will need to apply these opt-out settings in each device from which you wish to opt out. Not all companies that serve interest-based ads participate in these opt-out programs, so even after opting-out, you may still receive some cookies and interest-based ads from other companies. If you opt-out of interest-based advertisements, you will still see advertisements online, but they may be less relevant to you.

You can also prevent the use of certain cookies by modifying your Internet browser settings, typically under the sections “Help,” “Internet Options,” or “Settings.” If you disable or delete certain cookies in your Internet browser settings, you may still access our Sites, however, you might not be able to access or use important functions or features of our Sites, and you may, for example, be required to re-enter your log-in details.
