Web browser cookies

Sharp­Brains and our ad part­ners may use “cook­ies” to enhance User expe­ri­ence. User’s web brows­er places cook­ies on their hard dri­ve for record-keep­ing pur­pos­es and some­times to track infor­ma­tion about them. User may choose to set their web brows­er to refuse cook­ies, or to alert you when cook­ies are being sent. If they do so, note that some parts of the web­site may not func­tion properly.

How we use collected information

Sharp­Brains may col­lect and use Users per­son­al infor­ma­tion for the fol­low­ing purposes:

  • To improve cus­tomer service
    Infor­ma­tion you pro­vide helps us respond to your cus­tomer ser­vice requests and sup­port needs more efficiently.
  • To per­son­al­ize user experience
    We may use infor­ma­tion in the aggre­gate to under­stand how our Users as a group use the ser­vices and resources pro­vid­ed on our website.
  • To improve our website
    We may use feed­back you pro­vide to improve our prod­ucts and services.
  • To process payments
    We may use the infor­ma­tion Users pro­vide about them­selves when plac­ing an order only to pro­vide ser­vice to that order. We do not share this infor­ma­tion with out­side par­ties except to the extent nec­es­sary to pro­vide the service.
  • To send peri­od­ic emails
    We may use the email address to send User infor­ma­tion and updates per­tain­ing to their order. It may also be used to respond to their inquiries, ques­tions, and/or oth­er requests. If User decides to opt-in to our enewslet­ter list, they will receive emails that may include com­pa­ny news, updates, relat­ed prod­uct or ser­vice infor­ma­tion, etc. If at any time the User would like to unsub­scribe from receiv­ing future emails, they may do so by con­tact­ing us via our website.

How we protect your information

We adopt appro­pri­ate data col­lec­tion, stor­age and pro­cess­ing prac­tices and secu­ri­ty mea­sures to pro­tect against unau­tho­rized access, alter­ation, dis­clo­sure or destruc­tion of your per­son­al infor­ma­tion, user­name, pass­word, trans­ac­tion infor­ma­tion and data stored on our website.

Sharing your personal information

We do not sell, trade, or rent Users per­son­al iden­ti­fi­ca­tion infor­ma­tion to oth­ers. We may share gener­ic aggre­gat­ed demo­graph­ic infor­ma­tion not linked to any per­son­al iden­ti­fi­ca­tion infor­ma­tion regard­ing vis­i­tors and users with our busi­ness part­ners, trust­ed affil­i­ates and adver­tis­ers for the pur­pos­es out­lined above.

Third party websites

Users may find adver­tis­ing or oth­er con­tent on our web­site that link to the web­sites and ser­vices of our part­ners, sup­pli­ers, adver­tis­ers, spon­sors, licen­sors and oth­er third par­ties. We do not con­trol the con­tent or links that appear on these web­sites and are not respon­si­ble for the prac­tices employed by web­sites linked to or from our web­site. In addi­tion, these web­sites or ser­vices, includ­ing their con­tent and links, may be con­stant­ly chang­ing. These web­sites and ser­vices may have their own pri­va­cy poli­cies and cus­tomer ser­vice poli­cies. Brows­ing and inter­ac­tion on any oth­er web­site, includ­ing web­sites which have a link to our web­site, is sub­ject to that web­site’s own terms and policies.

Advertising

Ads appear­ing on our web­site may be deliv­ered to Users by adver­tis­ing part­ners, who may set cook­ies. These cook­ies allow the ad serv­er to rec­og­nize your com­put­er each time they send you an online adver­tise­ment to com­pile non per­son­al iden­ti­fi­ca­tion infor­ma­tion about you or oth­ers who use your com­put­er. This infor­ma­tion allows ad net­works to, among oth­er things, deliv­er tar­get­ed adver­tise­ments that they believe will be of most inter­est to you. This pri­va­cy pol­i­cy does not cov­er the use of cook­ies by any advertisers.

Google Adsense

Some of the ads may be served by Google. Google’s use of the DART cook­ie enables it to serve ads to Users based on their vis­it to our web­site and oth­er web­sites on the Inter­net. DART uses “non per­son­al­ly iden­ti­fi­able infor­ma­tion” and does NOT track per­son­al infor­ma­tion about you, such as your name, email address, phys­i­cal address, etc. You may opt out of the use of the DART cook­ie by vis­it­ing the Google ad and con­tent net­work pri­va­cy pol­i­cy at https://www.google.com/privacy_ads.html
