COOKIES AND OTHER TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES

We may use cookies and other tracking technologies (like web beacons and pixels) to access or store information. A “cookie” is a small text file that is placed on your computer or mobile device when you enter a website or a mobile app. It enables the website or mobile app to remember your actions and preferences over a period of time. While the cookies we may use change from time to time, they generally fall into one of the following categories:

  • Strictly Necessary Technologies. These technologies are necessary for the website to function and can’t be switched off in our systems. You can set your browser to block or alert you about these technologies, but some parts of the website may not work as a result.
  • Functional Technologies. These technologies allow for enhanced functionality and personalization. They may be set by us or third-party providers whose services we have added to our pages. If you don’t allow these technologies, then some or all these functionalities may not work properly.
  • Performance Technologies. These technologies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our website. They help us know which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the website. For example, we use Google Analytics to help us understand how users engage with the platform. Google Analytics uses cookies to track your interactions with the platform, then collects that information and reports it to us. This information helps us improve the Platform so that we can better serve you. If you wish, you can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-on.
  • Targetting Technologies. These technologies are set by our advertising partners. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant ads on other sites. They work by uniquely identifying your browser and device. Some of the data these technologies collect may be considered sensitive in nature, including your health information. If you do not allow these technologies, you will not experience our targeted advertising across different websites where we purchase ad space.

We also use session replay tools, which record your interactions with our websites and mobile apps, such as how you move through our webpages and engage with our webforms. This information helps us improve our Services and identify and fix technical issues visitors may be having with them.

To learn more about cookies and other technologies, please visit www.allaboutcookies.org. Most web and mobile device browsers automatically accept cookies. If you prefer, you can change your browser to prevent that or to notify you each time a cookie is set.

Some of the third parties we work with participate in industry groups that offer mechanisms for opting out of interest-based advertising. Residents of the United States can use the Digital Advertising Alliance’s mechanism at http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ and the Network Advertising Initiative’s mechanism at https://optout.networkadvertising.org/. Opting out of interest-based advertising using these tools will not opt you out of all advertising, but rather only interested-based advertising from us or our partners or representatives

HOW LONG DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION?

We keep your personal information for as long as necessary to provide our Services, operate our business, and comply with our legal obligations. When we decide how long to keep your personal information, we consider the nature and sensitivity of the information, the potential harm from unauthorized use, the reasons we collected the personal information, and our legal obligations.

HOW DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION SAFE?

We have implemented appropriate and reasonable technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we process. However, despite our safeguards and efforts to secure your information, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so we cannot promise or guarantee that hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorized third parties will not be able to defeat our security and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your information. Although we will do our best to protect your personal information, transmission of personal information to and from our Services is at your own risk. You should only access the Services within a secure environment.

DO WE COLLECT INFORMATION FROM MINORS?

We do not knowingly solicit data from or market to children under 18 years of age. By using the Services, you represent that you are at least 18 or that you are the parent or guardian of such a minor and consent to such minor dependent’s use of the Services. If we learn that personal information from users less than 18 years of age has been collected, we will deactivate the account and take reasonable measures to promptly delete such data from our records. If you become aware of any data we may have collected from children under age 18, please contact us at privacypolicy@ivirma.com.

WHAT ARE YOUR PRIVACY RIGHTS?

All of our users have the following privacy rights:

  • Opting out of marketing and promotional communications: You can unsubscribe from our marketing and promotional communications by clicking on the unsubscribe link in the emails that we send, texting “STOP” in reply to our marketing texts, or by contacting us using the details provided in the HOW CAN YOU CONTACT US ABOUT THIS NOTICE? section below. Even if you opt out of marketing, we may still communicate with you — for example, to send you service-related messages that are related to the administration and use of your account, to respond to service requests, or for other non-marketing purposes.
  • Cookies and other technologies: Most web browsers are set to accept cookies by default. If you prefer, you can usually choose to set your browser to remove cookies and to reject cookies. If you choose to remove cookies or reject cookies, this could affect certain features or services of our Services. You may also opt out of interest-based advertising by advertisers on our Services.

If you have questions or comments about your privacy rights, you may email us at privacypolicy@ivirma.com.

CONTROLS FOR DO-NOT-TRACK FEATURES

Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications include a Do-Not-Track ("DNT") feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. At this stage no uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As such, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this privacy notice.
