ABOUT THIS PRIVACY POLICY

Personal Information is information such as your name, that is associated with a physical address, telephone number, email address, and date of birth, or other data that, when combined together, can uniquely identify you. Personal Information also includes certain sensitive information related to your finances or, for business accounts, related to the finances of your employer. These are things such as a credit card number or other payment account number (including the three (3) or four (4) digit validation code for your credit card which is usually found on the back of the card). In order for you to take advantage of the services provided through the Grubdom Platform, we may require that you provide this sort of Personal Information or, in the case of business accounts, that your employer furnish Personal Information for you, or authorizes you to do so. We and our third party service providers collect your Personal Information or business accounts information when you voluntarily provide it to us.

Non-Personal Information (or "Non-PII") is aggregated information, demographic information and any other information that does not uniquely identify you. We and our third party service providers may collect your Non-Personal Information, which can include information about the device you are using in accessing the Grubdom Platform, information from the referring websites, and your interaction with the Grubdom Platform. We and our third party service providers may also aggregate Personal Information in a way so that the end-product does not uniquely identify you or any other user of the Grubdom Platform. As an example, by using Personal Information to calculate the percentage of our users who have a particular zip code. This collective information constitutes Non-Personal Information.

This file delivers information about that browser and its usage, and its activity on the Grubdom Platform. Pixel tags and web beacons are small graphic files that can function in various ways (such as allowing us to track how you view our emails that are sent out to you, and track the activity that you take - or more accurately: that the browser takes on the Grubdom Platform). Our pixel tags are often used in conjunction with cookies. We, our third party service providers, and other third parties detailed below under "How Do We and Our Third Party Service Providers Use Information Collected From You?" may use cookies, pixel tags, web beacons, and other similar technologies to better serve you with more tailored information where appropriate, and to better enable your continued use of the Grubdom Platform. If you do not want information collected through the use of cookies, there is a simple procedure in most browsers that allows you to decline the use of cookies.

How Do We Respond to Do Not Track Signals
