Use of Cookies and Similar Technologies

Our Sites may use cookies and similar technologies to improve user experience, for performance and analytics, and to improve our content, products, and services. We also use cookies and similar technologies for purposes of marketing and advertising, including interest-based advertising.

A “cookie” is a small text file that a web server stores in browser software. A browser sends cookies to a server when the browser makes a connection to the server (for example, when requesting a web page from the same domain that created the cookie). The purpose of cookies is to remember the browser over time and distinguish one browser instance (or user) from all others. Some cookies and other technologies may serve to track personal information previously entered by a web user on the Site. Most browsers allow you to control cookies, including whether to accept them or not, and how to remove them. Cookies can remember login information, preferences, and similar information.

There are generally four categories of cookies: “Strictly Necessary,” “Performance,” “Functionality,” and “Targeting.” We may use all four categories of cookies on our Sites. You can find out more about each cookie category below.

Strictly Necessary Cookies. These cookies are essential, as they enable you to move around our Sites and use features, such as accessing logged in or secure areas, and documenting certain system and browser preferences (including cookie based opt-out preferences).
Performance Cookies. These cookies collect information about how you have used our Sites, for example, information related to the unique username you have provided. We also use cookies to track aggregate Site usage and experiment with new features and changes on the Site. The information collected is used to improve how our Sites work.
Functionality Cookies. These cookies allow us to remember how you have logged in to an account on our Sites. These cookies also allow us to tailor our Sites to provide enhanced features and content for you. The information these cookies collect may be anonymous, and they are not used to track your browsing activity on other sites or services.
Targeting Cookies. Ariel Green and our authorized advertising partners may use these types of cookies to deliver advertising that is relevant to your interests. These cookies can remember that your device has visited a Site and may also be able to track your device’s browsing activity on other websites. This information may be shared with third-parties we have engaged with, such as advertisers and/or advertising networks to deliver the advertising, and to help measure the effectiveness of an advertising campaign.

Cookies, as well as other tracking technologies, such as HTML5 local storage, and Local Shared Objects (such as “Flash” cookies), and similar mechanisms, may record information such as a unique identifier, information you enter in a form, IP address, and other categories of data.

We may also use web beacons or “pixels,” and in certain circumstances may collect IP address, screen resolution and browser software and operating system types, clickstream patterns, dates and times that our site is accessed, and other categories of data.

If you want to block the use and saving of cookies from our Sites on to the computer’s hard drive, you should take the necessary steps within your web browser’s settings to block all cookies from the Sites and external serving vendors, or use the cookie control system, if available upon first visit, which is available here. Please note that if you choose to erase or block your cookies, certain parts of our Sites may not function correctly. For information on how to disable cookies, refer to your browser’s documentation.

Interest-Based Advertising

Interest-based advertising is advertising that is targeted to you based on your web browsing and app usage over time and across websites or apps. You have the option to restrict the use of information for interest-based advertising and to opt-out of receiving interest-based ads.

The opt-outs for interest-based advertising require that strictly necessary cookies are not blocked by the settings in your web browser. We support the Self-Regulatory Principles for Online Behavioral Advertising of the Digital Advertising Alliance in the U.S., the Canadian Digital Advertising Alliance in Canada, and the European Digital Advertising Alliance in the EU. If you live in the United States, Canada, or the European Union, you can visit Ad Choices (US), Your Ad Choices (Canada), or Your Online Choices (EU) to find a convenient place to opt-out of interest-based advertising with participating entities for each region. These websites also provide detailed information about how interest-based advertising works. Opting out does not mean that you will no longer receive advertising from us, or when you use the Internet. It just means that the data collected from our website will not be used for interest-based advertising and that the advertising you see displayed on websites will not be customized to your interests.

The following provision supplements our Privacy Notice and applies to you if you are a California consumer who uses our Sites or Services.

Disclosure of Personal Information for a Business Purpose. We may disclose personal information to the third parties or others as described above in this Privacy Notice, for any of the business purposes described above in this Privacy Notice.

Once we receive and confirm your request, we will delete (and direct our service providers to delete) your personal information from our records, unless an exception applies. We may not be able to honor your deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service provider(s) to:

Complete the transaction for which we collected the personal information, provide a good or service that you requested, take actions reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing business relationship with you, or otherwise perform our contract with you.
Detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecute those responsible for such activities.

Comply with the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act (Cal. Penal Code § 1546 et. seq.).

Any disclosures we provide under the CCPA will only cover the 12-month period preceding the verified California consumer request’s receipt. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your Personal Information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance. We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable California consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.

Deny you goods or services
Charge you different prices or rates for goods or services, including through granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties
