Some content or applications, including advertisements, on the Website are served by third-parties, including advertisers, ad networks and servers, content providers, and application providers. These third parties may use cookies alone or in conjunction with web beacons or other tracking technologies to collect information about you when you use a Website. The information they collect may be associated with your online activities over time and across different websites and other online services. They may use this information to provide you with interest-based (behavioral) advertising or other targeted content, which is often referred to as remarketing.

We use Google Analytics, which provides Vegan Strong with Website traffic analysis, and also tailors your ad experience and provides ads to you as you travel to different websites.  Vegan Strong is not collecting any personally identifiable information through use of third party remarketing systems.  Vegan Strong does not control these third parties' tracking technologies or how they may be used. However many third parties may provide you with ways to choose not to have your information collected or used in this way.

 

Google Analytics collects information such as how often users visit the Website, what pages they visit when they do so, and what other sites they used prior to coming to this site. We use the information we get from Google Analytics only to improve the Website. Google Analytics collects only the IP address assigned to you on the date you visit this site, rather than your name or other identifying information. We do not combine the information collected through the use of Google Analytics with personally identifiable information. Although Google Analytics plants a permanent cookie on your web browser to identify you as a unique user the next time you visit this site, the cookie cannot be used by anyone but Google.

Do Not Track Disclosures           

 

At this time, there are no worldwide uniform or consistent industry standards or definition for responding to, processing, or communicating "Do No Track" signals.  As a result, the Website is unable to respond to "Do No Track" signals.  You can refer to the instructions in your browser to make sure the appropriate settings are selected, and to set your preferences in "Do Not Track" signals.

 

CROSS-DEVICE LINKING

 

Vegan Strong, or its third party service providers, may link your various devices so that content you see on one device can result in relevant advertising on another device. Vegan Strong or its third party service providers do this by collecting information about each device you use when you are logged in to a Website. Vegan Strong may also work with third party partners who employ tracking technologies, or the application of statistical modeling tools, to determine if two or more devices are linked to a single user or household. Vegan Strong may share a common account identifier (such as an email address or user ID) with third party advertising partners to help recognize you across devices. Vegan Strong, and its third party service providers, can use this cross-device linkage to serve interest-based advertising and other personalized content to you across your devices, to perform analytics and to measure the performance of advertising campaigns.
