The following describes the overall company Privacy Policy of Semantic Sugar Inc.

We understand how important it is to keep your personal information confidential, especially online. Our commitment to protecting your privacy is outlined in the policies below. This policy was designed to inform you of the information we collect when you visit AdRoll.com as well as our customer’s (referred to as “Advertisers” websites or “Publishers” websites) and then how the information is collected and used by companies that display advertisements (referred to as “Partners”). Those who visit our Advertisers’ or Publishers’ websites are referred to as “Prospects” throughout this policy. Because our policy may be updated periodically we encourage you to review these pages on a regular basis. What does AdRoll know about me through the ads they serve? We do not know who you are. We do not know your name. We do not know where you live, where you work, your gender, your age, your email address or any other personally identifiable information about you. We do not collect any personally identifiable information from the publisher website on which you may have seen our ads. We do not store your IP address. We do know that the Internet Browser you are using has visited one of our partner sites (probably an online retailer) in the last 90 days. What information does AdRoll collect about me through their technology and how do they use that information? We only collect anonymous data. In order to identify which products you might be interested in, AdRoll records, via anonymous cookies, which pages you have browsed on our partners’ website. Cookies keep the information of which pages you viewed, and in certain cases which products you bought. This data is anonymous and exclusively meant for statistical treatment. There is absolutely no way for AdRoll to identify the visitor. We do not take any user information from a retailer that they may have stored about you (name, address, etc). We do not share any data with any site that displays our advertising. Opt Out / Opt In In order to allow AdRoll advertisers to reach the best inventory online, AdRoll buys across multiple networks. In order to opt out of all retargeted ads, you must opt out of each of the major networks individually. Click below to adjust your preferences and Opt OUT of each network. Click here to adjust your advertising preferences Account information we collect AdRoll uses the Evidon assurance platform to comply with the cross-industry Self-Regulatory Program for Online Behavioral Advertising as managed by the Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA). As part of this service, AdRoll’s online advertisements and Web sites are sometimes delivered with icons that help consumers understand how their data is being used and provide choice options to consumers that want more control. If you open an account, we collect the following types of information from you: Contact information – your name, address, email, and other similar information. Personal and Non-Personal Information Personally Identifiable Information (“PII”) is data about you that is personally identifiable; like your name, email address, credit card number or any other information that is not otherwise publicly available. The PII that AdRoll collects from you is information you supply to us; such as your name, email address, credit card number and AdRoll.com account login. The only PII collected by AdRoll is from AdRoll customers who explicitly register for an account at AdRoll.com. That information is maintained by AdRoll so that you do not have to enter it each time you visit our website. No PII is collected from the publisher website on which you may have seen our ads. Non-Personally Identifiable Information (“NPII”) data is collected by AdRoll and AdRoll Partners, and is used by AdRoll for the purpose of improving the quality and relevancy of the advertisements served by AdRoll and AdRoll’s Partners (referred to as “Retargeting”). NPII data collected by AdRoll for Retargeting is completely anonymous, and only includes information such as the date and time of visit, domain type, and their activity on our Advertiser’s or Partner’s websites. None of this information, individually or grouped together, can be traced back to a specific individual. Finally, we may collect additional information from or about you in other ways not specifically described here. For example, we may collect information related to your contact with our customer support team or store results when you respond to a survey. We do not share any PII with any third parties nor do we use any personal information for any purposes beyond those stated here. What are cookies? A cookie is a small text file that is stored on a user’s computer for record-keeping purposes. We use cookies on this site. We do not link the information we store in cookies to any personally identifiable information you submit while on our site. We use both session ID cookies and persistent cookies. We use session cookies to make it easier for you to navigate our site. A session ID cookie expires when you close your browser. A persistent cookie remains on your hard drive for an extended period of time. You can remove persistent cookies by following directions provided in your Internet browser’s “help” file. Persistent cookies enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our site. How we use cookies “Cookies” are small data files that may be downloaded to the browser on your computer when you visit the AdRoll site or an Advertiser or Publisher site and permit the AdRoll server or an AdRoll Partner’s server to identify your browser whenever you interact with the AdRoll.com site or with an AdRoll Advertiser or Publisher site. AdRoll uses cookies to recognize repeat visits by users of its Service and to collect information about how users interact with the Service. These cookies contain identification information that enables us to streamline the user experiences using the Services and to report such information to Publishers, Advertisers, and Network Operators. AdRoll also uses it’s cookies to serve relevant and targeted advertisements through Retargeting. A Prospect receives a cookie from AdRoll and AdRoll’s Partners when they visit AdRoll.com, and/or when they visit one of AdRoll’s Advertiser’s websites. When a Prospect visits one of AdRoll’s Advertiser websites, an AdRoll pixel on that site sets an AdRoll cookie and AdRoll Partner cookies in the browser being used by the Prospect. When that Prospect visits one of AdRoll’s Publisher sites or a site where one of our Partners serves advertisements, the cookie stored in the browser of the Prospect will be recognized by AdRoll’s server or the Partner’s server. The Prospect will then be shown an advertisement from the Advertiser of the site they visited when the cookie was stored. After this point, AdRoll will track how many times the Prospect is shown an ad from that Advertiser and whether or not they clicked on the ad. This information is part of what AdRoll uses in its reporting, but in no way can be used to identify who that Prospect is, or any other online activities of the Prospect outside of AdRoll’s Advertiser, Publisher and Partner websites. AdRoll has no access to Partner cookies but requires that each Partner only collect NPII information for the use of serving ads. Any Partner found in violation of this policy will immediately be removed. The NPII data collected by AdRoll in the above outlined process of Retargeting will be kept by AdRoll for the period of one year. After one year, all cookie data and IP addresses is purged. This information is used strictly for reporting purposes and is not tied to personal information. We encode our cookies so that only we can interpret the information stored in them. You are free to decline our cookies if your browser permits, but doing so may interfere with your use of our website.
