6. Cookies, Targeting, and Analytics 

We and our third-party service providers use cookies, pixels, java script, and other mechanisms to automatically collect information browsing, activity, device and similar information within our Services. We use this information to, for example, analyze and understand how users access and use the Services, how they interact with others through our Services, as well to identify and resolve bugs and errors in our Services and to assess, secure, protect, optimize and improve the performance of our Services.

Cookies.  Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers that we transfer to your device’s hard drive through the Services for record-keeping purposes. Some cookies allow us to make it easier for you to navigate our Services, while others allow us to track your activities in our Services, support the security and performance of the Services, or allow us to track activity and usage data within Service.  Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but if you prefer, you can edit your browser options to block them in the future. The Help portion of the toolbar on most browsers will tell you how to prevent your computer from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie or how to disable cookies altogether. 

Pixel Tags. Pixel tags (sometimes called web beacons or clear GIFs) are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on your device, pixel tags are embedded invisibly on web pages and online content. We may use these, in connection with our Services to, among other things, track the activities of Site visitors, help us manage content, and compile statistics about Site usage. We and our third-party service providers also use clear GIFs in HTML emails to our customers, to help us track email response rates, identify when our emails are viewed, and track whether our emails are forwarded.

Third-Party Analytics. We may use non-affiliated analytics companies, for example Google Analytics (see privacy policy and opt-out), to evaluate use of our Services. We use these tools to help us understand use of, and to improve, our Services, performance, ad campaigns, and user experiences. These entities may use cookies and other tracking technologies, such as web beacons or local storage objects (LSOs), to perform their services.  

Do-Not-Track. Currently, our systems do not recognize browser “do-not-track” requests. You may, however, disable certain tracking as discussed in this section (e.g., by disabling cookies); you also may opt out of targeted advertising by following the instructions in the “Cookies, Targeting, and Analytics” section.

Advertising and Targeting. As described above, we work with third parties, such as third-party ad networks, analytics and measurement services and other third-party ad companies to manage our advertising on third-party sites and online services. We and these third-party ad companies may use cookies, pixels tags, and other tools (which we may refer to collectively as “targeting cookies”) to collect activity information within our Services (as well as on third-party sites and services), as well as IP address, location information, unique ID, cookie and advertising IDs, and other identifiers, as well as browsing information. We and these third-party ad companies use this information to provide you with more relevant ads and content within our Services and other online services and on third-party sites and apps, and to evaluate the success of such ads and content.  

Preferences. We make available several ways for you to manage your preferences regarding third-party advertising and cookies within our Site and Services. Many of these are browser and device specific, which means that you need to set the preference for each browser and device you use to access our Site and Services. In addition, if you delete or block cookies, you may need to reapply these preferences.  Further, opting out of cookies and advertising as discussed below does not mean that you will no longer receive advertising content from us. You may continue to receive generic or “contextual” ads from us.   

Cookie preference manager. You can review or change your preferences for targeting cookies and tags on our Site by adjusting your cookies in your browser settings. By clearing the cookies in your browser settings and visiting regrow.ag again, you will be able to make changes to your cookie preferences. 

Browser settings. To prevent cookies from tracking your activity on our Site or visits across multiple websites, you can set your browser to block certain cookies, notify you when a cookie is set or delete cookies. Visitors to our Site and other online services who disable cookies will be able to browse the Site, but some features may not function. 

Industry ad choice programs. You can control how participating third-party ad companies use the information that they collect about your visits to our Sites and those of third parties, in order to display more relevant targeted advertising to you. For more information and to opt out of receiving targeted ads from participating third-party ad networks go to:

  • U.S. Users: https://aboutads.info/choices (Digital Advertising Alliance) (You can also download the DAA AppChoices tool in order to help control interest-based advertising on apps on your mobile device.)
  • EU Users: https://youronlinechoices.eu (European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance)

Please note that opting out of participating ad networks does not opt you out of being served advertising. You may continue to receive generic or contextual ads on our Services. You may also continue to receive targeted ads on other websites, from companies that do not participate in the above programs.

7. Your Privacy Choices 

Users have several choices regarding their personal information and privacy preferences, as described in this section.

You may opt out of such communications by following the opt-out instructions contained in the email or emailing us at [email protected].  Please note that it may take up to ten (10) business days for us to process opt out requests. If you opt out of receiving promotional emails about recommendations or other information we think may interest you, we may still send you emails about your account or any Services you have requested or received from us.  

Cookie and Targeted Advertising. As described in the “Cookies, Targeting, and Analytics” section above, you can manage your preferences for cookies (including targeting cookies) on our Site and Services by adjusting your cookie settings or other preferences.

We will take steps to ensure that your personal information receives an adequate level of protection in the jurisdictions in which we process it, including through appropriate written data processing terms and/or data transfer agreements.

If you are in the European Economic Area, and we process your personal information in a jurisdiction that the European Commission has deemed to not provide an adequate level of data protection (a “third country”), we will implement measures to adequately protect your personal information, such as putting in place standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission or another measure that has been approved by the EU Commission as adducing adequate safeguards for the protection of personal information when transferred to a third country.

11. Security

We have implemented safeguards and technical measures to protect the personal information that we have under our control from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. However, no data security measures can guarantee 100% security. You should take steps to protect against unauthorized access to your password, phone, and computer by, among other things, signing off after using a shared device.

12. Retention

As a general rule, we retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected and is used by us, as stated in this Policy. Further, to the extent permitted by applicable law, we will retain and use your personal information as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, maintain appropriate business records, and enforce our agreements.  With respect to retaining Customer Data, our business customers instruct us on how long to retain Customer Data, which we handle as a data processor.
