Cookies and Internet Advertising

We and our Service Providers use cookies and other technologies (such as web beacons), as well as advertising identifiers, for various reasons. For example, we use these technologies to make it easy to access our services by remembering you when you return, to provide and analyze our services. We also use cookies, as well as advertising identifiers, to learn more about our users and their likely interests, and to deliver and tailor marketing or advertising. We want you to be informed about our use of these technologies, so this section explains the types of technologies we use, what they do and your choices regarding their use.

1. What are cookies?
   Cookies are small data files that are commonly stored on your device when you browse and use websites and online services. They are widely used to make websites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information and assist with service or advertising personalization
   Cookies are not the only types of technology that enable this functionality; we also use other, similar types of technologies. See below for more information and examples.
2. What are advertising identifiers? Advertising identifiers are similar to cookies and are found on many mobile devices and tablets (for example, the "Identifier for Advertisers" (or IDFA) on Apple iOS devices and the "Google Advertising ID" on Android devices), and certain streaming media devices. Like cookies, advertising identifiers are used to make online advertising more relevant.
3. Why does AVTAR APP use cookies and advertising identifiers?
   • Essential cookies: These cookies are strictly necessary to provide our App which is an online service. For example, we and our Service Providers may use these cookies to authenticate and identify our members when they use our App so we can provide our service to them. They also help us to enforce our Terms of Use, prevent fraud and maintain the security of our service.
   • Performance and functionality cookies: These cookies are not essential, but help us to personalize and enhance your online experience with AVTAR APP. For example, they help us to remember your preferences and prevent you from needing to re-enter information you previously provided (for example, during member sign up). We also use these cookies to collect information (such as popular pages, conversion rates, viewing patterns, click-through and other information) about our users/audience of the AVTAR APP so that we can enhance and personalize our App, the services and conduct market research. Deletion of these types of cookies may result in limited functionality of our service.
   • Advertising cookies and advertising identifiers: These cookies and advertising identifiers use information about your use of this and other websites and apps, your response to ads and emails, and to deliver ads that are more relevant to you. These types of ads are called "interest-based advertising." Many of the advertising cookies associated with our service belong to our Service Providers.
4. How can I exercise choice regarding cookies and advertising identifiers?
   To opt out of interest-based ads from AVTAR APP in connection with an advertising identifier on a mobile device, tablet, or streaming media devices, please configure the appropriate setting on your device (usually found under "privacy" or "ads" in your device's settings). You may still see AVTAR APP ads on your device, but they will not be tailored to your likely interests.
5. How Does AVTAR APP use Web Beacons and other Technologies?

   Web beacons (also known as clear gifs or pixel tags) often work in conjunction with cookies. We and our Service Providers may use them for similar purposes as cookies, such as to understand and enhance the use of our service, improve site performance, monitor visitor traffic and actions on our site, and understand interactions with our marketing (including email and online ads on third party sites). Because web beacons often work in conjunction with cookies, in many cases, declining cookies will impair the effectiveness of web beacons associated with those cookies.

   We use other technologies that are similar to cookies, such as browser storage and plugins (e.g., HTML5, IndexedDB, and WebSQL). Like cookies, some of these technologies may store small amounts of data on your device. We may use these and various other technologies for similar purposes as cookies, such as to enforce our terms, prevent fraud, and analyze the use of our service. There are a number of ways to exercise choice regarding these technologies. Other technologies, such as Silverlight storage, may be cleared from within the application.
