2. Advertising and Third-Party Data Collection (MANDATORY ADSense DISCLOSURES)

We use Google AdSense to display advertisements on our website. This practice involves third-party vendors who may collect and use data.

 

2.1 Use of Cookies and Tracking Technologies

  • Third-Party Vendors: Our website uses third-party advertising partners, including Google, to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.
  • Purpose: These vendors use technologies like cookies, web beacons, and unique device identifiers to deliver advertisements that are more relevant to your interests (known as Personalized Advertising). The data collected helps measure the effectiveness of the advertisements and prevents you from seeing the same ad too many times.

  • Opt-Out Right: You may opt out of the use of the DART cookie for personalized advertising by visiting the Google Ad Settings page: https://myadcenter.google.com/. You may also opt out of some third-party vendors’ uses of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting www.aboutads.info.

 

3. Your Rights and Consent (GDPR and US State Laws)

In compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) for European users and applicable US State Privacy Laws (such as CCPA/CPRA), we provide clear mechanisms for you to control your data.

  • Explicit Consent: We utilize a Consent Management Platform (CMP) via Google AdSense to obtain your explicit, affirmative consent for the use of non-essential cookies and the processing of personal data for personalized advertising.
  • Right to Withdraw Consent: You have the right to withdraw or change your consent at any time. You can typically manage your consent preferences by clicking the link provided in our site’s footer or the button/widget embedded on the site.
