Advertising Privacy Statement
This Site is affiliated with AdThrive, LLC (“AdThrive”) for the purposes of placing advertising on the Site. AdThrive uses standard and widely-available tools for the placement and serving of ads, including those provided by Google, Inc. and its affiliates. We publish interest-based advertisements on the Site; that is, ads that are tailored to reflect your interests. To help understand your interests, AdThrive, Google and our other advertising partners will track your behaviour on our website and on other websites across the Internet using cookies.
A cookie is a file containing an identifier (a string of letters and numbers) that is sent by a web server to a web browser and is stored by the browser. The identifier is then sent back to the server each time the browser requests a page from the server. Cookies may be either “persistent” cookies or “session” cookies: a persistent cookie will be stored by a web browser and will remain valid until its set expiry date, unless deleted by the user before the expiry date; a session cookie, on the other hand, will expire at the end of the user session, when the web browser is closed. Cookies do not typically contain any information that personally identifies a user, but personal information that we store about you may be linked to the information stored in and obtained from cookies.
By using this Site, you consent to the use of such cookies and the sharing of data captured by such cookies with AdThrive, Google, and our other third party partners. You can view, delete or add interest categories associated with your browser by visiting: https://adssettings.google.com. You can also opt out of the network cookie using those settings or using the Network Advertising Initiative’s multi-cookie opt-out mechanism at: http://optout.networkadvertising.org. However, these opt-out mechanisms themselves use cookies, and if you clear the cookies from your browser your opt-out will not be maintained.

USE OF FACEBOOK SOCIAL PLUGINS/WIDGETS
This website uses ‘social plugins’ (‘plugins’) from the Facebook social network, operated by Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA (‘Facebook’). The plugins can be identified by the Facebook logo, the phrase ’Social Plugin from Facebook’ or ‘Facebook Social Plugin’. You can find an overview of Facebook plugins and their appearance here: https://developers.facebook.com/products/social-plugins/overview/
If you access a page from our website which includes such a plugin, your browser establishes a direct connection with a Facebook server. The contents of the plugin are sent directly to your browser by Facebook and embedded into the web page.
Facebook receives the information via the plugin embedding that your browser has accessed the appropriate page from our website, even if you have no Facebook account or are not currently logged in to Facebook. This information (including your IP address) is sent by your browser directly to a Facebook server in the USA and is stored there.If you are logged on to Facebook, Facebook is then able to allocate the visit to our website directly to your Facebook account. If you interact with the plugins, for example, if you click on the ‘Like‘ button or enter a comment, the corresponding information will be sent directly to a Facebook server and stored there. The information will also be published on Facebook and shown to your Facebook friends.

Facebook may use this information for purposes of advertising, market research and personalized design of Facebook pages. Facebook creates usage, interests and relationships profiles for this, e.g. to analyze your use of our website regarding the adverts displayed to you on Facebook, to inform other Facebook users about your activities on our website and to provide further related services using Facebook.
You may also encounter sections of our website that use Facebook ‘pixels.’ These are similar to ‘cookies’ and are small files that allow Facebook to enhance its ad experience with you, the user. We use these ‘pixels’ to track users that have interacted with our website so that we can effectively run ads to community members who the ads are relevant to.
If you do not want Facebook to collect data about you via our website and to link this with your data stored on Facebook, you should log-off from Facebook before visiting our website.
