Other Information

Other Information is any information that does not reveal Your specific identity or does not directly relate to an identifiable individual.  This may include but is not limited to:

  • Browser and device information;
  • Information collected through cookies, pixel tags, and other technologies;
  • Demographic information and other information provided by You that does not reveal Your specific identity; and
  • Information that has been aggregated in a manner such that it does not reveal Your specific identity.

If We are required to treat Other Information as Personal Information under applicable law, then We may use and disclose it for the purposes for which We use and disclose Personal Information as detailed in this Privacy Policy.

We and Our authorized service providers may collect Other Information in a variety of ways, including:

  • Through Your browser or device: Certain information is collected by most browsers or automatically through Your device, such as Your mobile network information, physical location, Media Access Control (MAC) address, computer type (Windows or Mac), screen resolution, operating system name and version, device manufacturer and model, language, and Internet browser type and version.
  • Through cookies. “Cookies” are small files that a site or its service provider transfers to Your computer’s hard drive through Your internet browser that enables the sites’ or service providers’ systems to recognize Your browser and capture and remember certain information.  This helps Us to improve Your access to this Website, identify repeat visitors, help ensure the authenticity of registered users, target advertising and enable website traffic monitoring.

We use session-based cookies and persistent cookies.  Session-based cookies will last only as long as Your web browser is open, and are deleted when You close Your browser.  A persistent cookie will last until it expires or until You delete it.  At times, We administer the use of cookies (called first-party cookies) and tracking technologies, and at times We rely upon authorized third parties to do so (called third-party cookies).  These third parties may also use cookies, pixels and other identifiers to collect information that indicates how users interact with the Website.

At this time, We do not respond to browser “do not track” signals or other similar mechanisms.  Go to http://www.networkadvertising.org. or http://www.aboutads.info if You wish to learn more about Your options to not accept tracking cookies for the purpose of receiving targeted interest-based advertisements.  Please note that the opt-out is cookie-based and will only affect the specific computer and browser on which the opt-out is applied.

  • Through pixel tags and other similar technologies. Pixel tags (also known as web beacons and clear GIFs) may be used among other things to track the actions of users of the Services (including email recipients), measure the success of Connell’s marketing campaigns, and compile statistics about usage of the Services and response rates.
  • Through analytics. We use Google Analytics, which uses cookies and similar technologies to collect and analyze information about use of this Website and report on activities and trends.  These services may also collect information regarding the use of other websites, applications, and online resources. You can learn specifically about Google’s practices by going to google.com/policies/privacy/partners/, and opt out of them by downloading the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on, available at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.  
  • IP Address. Your IP address is automatically assigned to Your computer by Your Internet Service Provider.  An IP address may be identified and logged automatically in Our server log files whenever a user accesses the Services, along with the time of the visit and the page(s) that were visited.  Collecting IP addresses is standard practice and is done automatically by many websites, applications, and other services.

We may use and disclose Other Information for any purpose, except where We are required to do otherwise under applicable law.  In some instances, We may combine Other Information with Personal Information.  If We do, We will treat the combined information as Personal Information as detailed in this Policy for as long as it is combined.
