6. COOKIES AND OTHER DATA COLLECTION TECHNOLOGY (ONLINE SERVICES)

Cookies are small text files that are sent to or accessed from your web browser or your computer's hard drive. A cookie typically contains the name of the domain (internet location) from which the cookie originated, the “lifetime” of the cookie (i.e., when it expires) and a randomly generated unique number or similar identifier. A cookie also may contain information about your computer, such as user settings, browsing history and Internet activities. We use the following types of cookies on our Online Services:

  • Session Cookies are used to operate our Online Services. Some cookies are essential for the operation of the Online Services. If a user chooses to disable cookies, certain content and features may not be available.
  • Preference Cookies are used to remember your preferences. For example, when you select your location on one of our Online Services, we use cookies to remember your location preferences so you do not have to select it every time you visit the Online Service.
  • Advertising Cookies are used to serve you with advertisements that we believe are relevant to you and your interests. These cookies also help us evaluate our marketing program performance and analytics.
  • Security Cookies are used for general security purposes, such as user authentication and preventing fraudulent use or unauthorized access of data.

A web beacon (also called a pixel tag or clear GIF) is a piece of computer code that enables us to monitor user activity and website traffic. To learn more about cookies and web beacons, visit www.allaboutcookies.org. We refer to cookies, web beacons, and other similar technology as “Data Collection Technology.” Data Collection Technology enables us to remember your password for future log-ins, compile statistics about use of the Online Services, and detect and prevent fraud. Data Collection Technology also helps us and our ad management partners manage our online marketing program and deliver ads that are relevant or may be of interest to you.

Why IDEAL uses Data Collection Technology: We use Data Collection Technology to collect certain information to help us personalize and improve the performance of our Online Services. For example, we use Google Analytics to collect information to improve the Online Services, such as how often users visit a website, what pages they visit when they do so, and what other website they used prior to visiting the Online Services. Google Analytics places a cookie on your web browser so that it can identify you the next time you visit the website, the cookie cannot be used by anyone but Google. Google’s ability to use and share information collected by Google Analytics about your visits to the Online Services is restricted by the Google Analytics Terms of Use and the Google PrivacyPolicy.

We also use Adobe Marketing Cloud solutions to collect and analyze information, such as clicks made by visitors on our websites, apps and social networking pages to enable us better understand our online resources and marketing campaigns. For more information about Adobe Marketing Cloud, please review the Adobe Marketing Cloud Privacy Policy. Jademar Lighting participates in the Adobe Marketing Cloud Device Co- op to better understand how you use our Online Services across the various devices you use, and to deliver tailored promotions. Go to https://cross-device-privacy.adobe.com to learn more about how Adobe does this and to manage your choices relating to this linking of devices.

Controlling cookies on your computer: If you visit an Online Service that uses cookies, we will notify you of such use. You may, at any time, choose to express or change your preferences with regard to accepting cookies. If you do not wish to receive cookies, you may set your browser to reject cookies or alert you when a cookie is dropped on your computer. Usually, these settings are available through the security features of your web browser, and you should be able to consult the Help feature available for your browser for further information. Please be aware that if you disable cookies, some features on the Jademar Lighting websites may not be available, such as those features which require identification. If need be, Jademar Lighting will reject any responsibility for the consequences associated with degraded operation of its Online Services resulting from rejection of deletion of cookies and Jademar Lighting’s subsequent inability to register or consult the cookies necessary for operation.

Our policy on “Do Not Track” signals: California’s Online Privacy Protection Act requires website operators to disclose how they respond to web browser’s “Do Not Track” (“DNT”) signals. Some web browsers incorporate a DNT or similar feature that signals to websites that a user does not want to have his or her online activity tracked. If a website that responds to a particular DNT signal receives the DNT signal, the browser can block that website from collecting certain information about the browser’s user. Not all browsers offer a DNT option and DNT signals are not yet uniform. For this reason, many website operators, including Jademar Lighting, do not respond to DNT signals.

Interest-Based Advertising. Interest-based advertising is a way that helps companies provide you with more relevant advertising on the websites you visit of the applications you use. If you want to “opt out” of receiving online interest-based advertisements, please follow the instructions at www.aboutads.info/choices or http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/. An “opt-out” cookie will be placed on your device indicating that you do not want to receive interest-based advertisements. Please note that when you “opt-out” of receiving interest-based advertisements, this does not mean you will no longer see advertisements from us or on the Online Services. It means that the online ads that you do see will not be based on your particular interests. If you delete cookies on your device, generally you will need to opt-out again. More information about online behavioral advertising can be found at www.aboutads.info.
