We and our service provider may also record or monitor any call or chat you have with us for quality control or training purposes, or to enforce our rights.

Sources of Personal Information. We obtain personal information from a variety of sources, including the following sources:

  • Personal Information You Provide. Altitude Authentics collects personal information when you voluntarily submit it to us, including through offline interactions, such as when you fill out a form on the Platform, participate in a survey, make a purchase on the Platform or in-store, call customer service, or communicate with us.
  • Personal Information Automatically Collected. Altitude Authentics, our service providers, and our advertising partners may automatically log information about you, your computer, or mobile device, and your activity over time on our Platform and other sites and online services, such as the online activity information and device information listed above. Like many online services, we use cookies and similar technologies to facilitate some of the automatic data collection described above, which may include the following:
  • Cookies, which are text files that websites store on a visitor's device to uniquely identify the visitor's browser or to store information or settings in the browser for the purpose of helping you navigate between pages efficiently, remembering your preferences, enabling functionality, helping us understand user activity and patterns, and facilitating online advertising.
  • Flash cookies, or locally-stored objects, which are used on websites for purposes similar to cookies but allow storage of a larger amount of data.
  • Web beacons, also known as pixel tags or clear GIFs, which are typically used to demonstrate that a webpage or email was accessed or opened, or that certain content was viewed or clicked, typically to compile statistics about usage of websites and the success of marketing campaigns.
  • Local storage, which is used to save data on a visitor's device. We may use data from local storage to, for example, turn on web navigation, store multimedia preferences, customize what we show you based on your past interactions with our Platform, and remember your preferences.
  • Session replay technologies, which are third-party software used to record a video replay of Users' interactions with the Site. The video replay may include Users' clicks, mouse movements, scrolls, mobile app touches, typing, and other activity taken during the session. We may use these replays for research and development purposes, such as to help us troubleshoot problems with the Site, understand how Users interact with and use the Site, and identify areas for improvement.

Personal Information Obtained from Third Parties. In some circumstances, we may collect personal information about you from third party or publicly available sources, such as our service providers, data analytics partners, operating systems and platforms, social media platforms, and data providers.

HOW WE USE PERSONAL INFORMATION

Altitude Authentics' primary purpose in collecting personal information is to provide the Content, Services, and Products and to operate our business. We also use personal information for the purposes set forth below and as otherwise described in this Privacy Policy or at the time of collection.

To Provide the Platform. We may use personal information to operate our business. For example, we use personal information to:

  • process your transactions, including purchasing Products;
  • establish, manage, monitor, and maintain your account;
  • improve and personalize your experience on or with the Platform;
  • verify your identity for authentication and security purposes, or determine your eligibility for offers and promotions;
  • communicate with you, including providing notices about your account or purchase and responding to any of your requests, feedback, or questions;
  • provide any contests, surveys, sweepstakes, or other promotions you participate in;
  • provide maintenance and support; and
  • fulfill any other purpose for which you provide personal information.

Research and Development. We use personal information for research and development purposes, including to study and improve the features and functionality of our Platform and our business, understand and analyze the usage trends and preferences of our Users, and develop and improve our Content, Services, and Products. As part of these activities, we may create aggregated, de-identified, or other anonymous data from personal information we collect. We make personal information into anonymous or de-identified data by removing information that makes the data personally identifiable to you or your device, whether directly or indirectly. We will maintain and use any de-identified data without attempting to reidentify the data. We may use this anonymous or de-identified data and share it with third parties for our lawful business purposes.

You may opt-out of our marketing communications as described in the "YOUR CHOICES" section below.

Interest-Based Advertising. We may work with third-party advertising companies and social media companies to help us advertise our business and to display ads for our Platform and Products. These companies may use cookies and similar technologies to collect information about you (including the online activity information and browser & device information described above in the section called "Personal Information Automatically Collected") over time across our Platform and other websites and services or your interaction with our emails, and use that information to serve ads that they think will interest you. In addition, some of these companies may use hashed customer lists that we share with them to deliver ads to you and to similar users on their platforms. You can learn more about your choices for limiting interest-based advertising in the "YOUR CHOICES" section below.

To Comply with Laws and Regulations. We will use personal information as we believe necessary or appropriate to comply with applicable laws, lawful requests, and legal process, such as to respond to subpoenas or requests from government authorities.

For Compliance, Fraud Prevention, and Safety. We may use personal information and disclose it to law enforcement, government authorities, and private parties as we believe necessary or appropriate to: (a) maintain the safety, security, and integrity of the Platform and our Products, business, databases, and other technology assets; (b) protect our, your, or others' rights, privacy, safety or property (including by making and defending legal claims); (c) audit our internal processes for compliance with legal and contractual requirements and internal policies; (d) enforce the terms and conditions that govern the Platform; and (e) prevent, identify, investigate, and deter fraudulent, harmful, unauthorized, unethical or illegal activity, including cyberattacks and identity theft.

With Your Consent. We will disclose your personal information in accordance with your prior direction or, in some cases, we may specifically ask you for your consent to collect, use, or share your personal information, such as when required by law.

You can make the following choices regarding your personal information:

Review and Request Changes to Your Personal Information. The accuracy of the personal information we have about you is very important.

You may also request that we correct your information by contacting us as provided at the end of this Privacy Policy.

Email Communications. If you provide us with your email address in order to receive communications, you can opt-out of marketing emails at any time by following the instructions at the bottom of our emails. Please note that certain emails may be necessary for the operation of our Platform, such as those about your account or to deliver notifications directly to you through the Platform. You will continue to receive these emails, even if you unsubscribe from our marketing communications.

Cookies. Most browsers let you remove or stop accepting cookies from the websites you visit. To do this, follow the instructions in your browser's settings. Many browsers accept cookies by default until you change your settings. If you do not accept cookies, however, you may not be able to use all functionality of the Platform and our Site may not work properly. For more information about cookies, including how to see what cookies have been set on your browser and how to manage and delete them, visit www.allaboutcookies.org.

Analytics. The Site may use Google Analytics to help us analyze how the Site is being accessed and used. You can learn more about Google Analytics cookies by clicking here and about how Google protects your data by clicking here. To opt-out of Google Analytics, you can download and install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on, available here.

Advertising Choices. If you wish to minimize the amount of interest-based advertising you receive, you may block third-party cookies in your browser settings, use browser plug-ins/extensions, and use your mobile device settings to limit the use of the advertising ID associated with your mobile device. You can also opt out of interest-based ads from companies participating in the following industry opt-out programs by visiting the linked websites: the Network Advertising Initiative (http://www.networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp) and the Digital Advertising Alliance (https://optout.aboutads.info). Some of the companies we work with may offer their own opt-out mechanisms. For example, you can learn more about how Google uses cookies for advertising purposes by clicking here and opt-out of ad personalization by Google by clicking here.

Many of the opt-out preferences described in this section must be set on each device or browser for which you want them to apply. Please note that some of the advertising companies we work with may not participate in the opt-out mechanisms described above, so even after opting-out, you may still receive interest-based advertisements from other companies. If you opt-out of interest-based advertisements, you will still see advertisements online but they may be less relevant to you.

Do Not Track. Some browsers may be configured to send "Do Not Track" signals to the online services that you visit. The Site currently does not respond to "Do Not Track" signals. To find out more about "Do Not Track," please visit http://www.allaboutdnt.com.
